| x4240 To E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to EY. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}5/LG25.6.24. STANDARDISATION SHEET - X.4240. 20 HP. RADIATOR AND SHUTTER. We send you herewith a further standardisation sheet for you and Mr. Day to sign. R.{Sir Henry Royce} agreed to the original std. sheet. We take it to be now that the radiator will have the same length of tubes as present standard and that the shutters will remain hand controlled, instead of operated by thermostat but that the tank at the back of the radiator will still remain. Would you recommend this was left so that a thermostat could be fitted, if desired, at any time? We should like clear instructions on this point so that a revised std. sheet can be sent round when completed. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
