ALCO Brochure Reports

Engine Performance

On Residual Fuel

A 17-page, four-color brochure reports on the testing program of an ALCO 16-cylinder POWER

BOSS engine running on 400 SRI blended residual fuel.

In this newly announced pub- lication (HF 977-3M) there is discussion of ALCO's experience with residual fuels in both cur- rent and older model engines; reasons for this test; basic con- siderations of the test; test en- gine build components; fuel used during the test; lube oil used during the test; test program; in- spections during the test; special loads and tests; final inspection; lubricating oil; maintenance and conclusions.

Documented with four-color photographs of various compo- nents taken during certain phases of the performance test program, the brochure also includes labora- tory heavy fuel system piping schematic; turbocharger water wash schematic and various charts and graphs concerned with the program.

Conclusions reached were very gratifying in proving the ALCO

POWER BOSS engine's ability to operate on blended residual fuel.

Objectives were met with re- spect to both engine performance and endurance. The Model 251

POWER BOSS operating on a blended residual fuel can be ex- pected to provide dependable service in customer applications while taking advantage of the reduced cost of these fuels.

How to Treat Shipboard

Potable Water:

Suspiciously.

Why? Because the stakes are high. Should bacterial contamina- tion set in, the health of all on board could be jeopardized overnight.

CLOR-D-CLOR- Water Treatment Systems treat water the way it must be treated. Effectively. And reliably. With thorough disinfection using superchlorination and dechlorination, a method recognized and suggested by the EPA for small water systems.

For over 30 years Everpure CLOR-D-CLOR Systems have effectively treated potable water supplies for maritime indus- tries. They provide clear, good-tasting, bacteriolog- ically safe water with a minimum of maintenance.

System components include an EVERCLOR® Ma- rine Duty Chemical Feeder and appropriate models of RT pre-coat water filters. All components are adaptable to meet most marine and offshore appli- cations. For detailed information, call or write:
