Messrs Rolls-Royce Ltd., Experimental Dept., D E R B Y. Dear Sirs., Further to our letter of the 24th instant, from our Cambridge Works, concerning the Cambridge Rotational Accelerometer, we enclose a quotation for this instrument and would say that further details will be found on page 12 of the enclosed List No.139. We have no literature describing the Portable Viewer to which our Works refer, but we think the photograph sent will illustrate the type of projector we are offering. We would mention that for operating the time stylus of the Accelerometer, a Tenth Second Contact Maker will be necessary and details of this are given on page 18 of the list we are sending. We can also supply, if required, a control board for remote operation and we are including this in our quotation. We trust we shall have the pleasure of your instructions in the near future. Yours faithfully, for CAMBRIDGE INSTRUMENT CO. LTD. ENCLOSED. Quotation. List No.139. | ||
