U.S. Coast GUARD

AND Marpol '78 requirements for bilge- water separation. They feature a permanent filter bed composed of specially treated oleophilic material which needs an annual poured-in topping of only about 10% new material.

LIQUA-BLASTER" high pressure water jetting equipment.

Diesel or electric powered, a 2,000 psi (138 Bars) to 15,000 psi (1035 Bars) jet of salt or fresh water is revolutionizing routine on-board maintenance ... especially rust and scale removal from surfaces to be painted.

Delivered by a fail- safe, hand-held gun, this water jet easily cleans condenser and boiler tubes, oil spray from machinery, galley grease filters, clogged ports and more.

In non-explosive environments, where sparks present no hazard, a crew mem- ber can add a small amount of sand via the

ABRAS-I-JECTORR1 accessory and quickly and easily take a sur- face to the white-metal

SA2.5 standard. It's no wonder that long after other names have been forgotten, the

Butterworth Systems name will still be synonomous with reliable ship systems.
