| To EJJ. c.to Wst/JJ. 6103 Lr{Mr Ellor}/Wst.16/JH.12.3.37. Reservoir Battery Boost Rig. The old type P.III dynamo on this rig is giving trouble due to overheating. Cooling by means of a fan would cure this trouble, so we think it would be most convenient if a standard P.III dynamo were fitted. In order to fit this type of machine to our rig a coupling will have to be designed. We should be glad if you would instruct, for this work to be carried out as soon as possible, as the rig is urgently required. Lr{Mr Ellor}/Wst. | ||
