RR 238 (150 BKS.) [OB 461-8-12-24) MP 306975 X6099 ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. INSTRUCTIONS. To: EFC Order No: AD. 90 Customer's No: X 612i 20/25 Dynamos of Improved Construction Two machines in connection with the above have now been received. They differ in detail but the main features comprise the use of a steel carcase equal in length to the active part of the machine only, the remainder being made up by extensions to the aluminium end-plates. The brush gear is carried on a plate at the outer end of the commutator, and the main terminals are extensions of the brush holder bolts. The first machine was made up from S.24.IO and after a run on the bench has been taken to W.W. There was not time to take an output curve but the performance appeared to be normal for this type of machine. (Cont'd) Signed | ||
