| To File. C. to EFC. EXPERIMENTAL X.4054 BY/WERL/EF23. 9. 21. X 4054 - 40/50 CHASSIS. CONDENSER - SECTION 7370. Our memo BY/WERL/EF6. 7. 21 instructed a Condenser to be made up embodying the improved earthed terminal. This experimental model we believe has been produced and to standardise this the scrapping of existing material (P and R Series) would be practically nil, also all complete Condensers at present in stock most of which are of Dublier manufacture could readily be modified and brought up-to-date. We think that the instructions contained in E1/G25.6.21 could be readily embodied in this Condenser and we have therefore produced D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} 1853 Condenser End Plate, blue print of which herewith. This plate is added with the object of protecting the Mica Plates when putting on or taking off the Condenser on the two Studs fixed in the Distributor Casing. If Bakelite Micarta is not available a piece of Paxolin Sheet (several samples of which are in EFC's hands) could be used. BY/WER. WER D1583. RECEIVED, [Stamp: P O SEP 23 1921] | ||
