SS.{S. Smith} PETROL TANK SINGLE FILTER.

X7460
X3701

We send herewith N. sch. 2820. shewing the single filter without a two level device as recently instructed by R.{Sir Henry Royce}

In order to be able to incline the filter considerably to deal with maximum bodies with a small turn-under we suggest that the hole at the top should not be materially less than at present.

The sump is as now.

We suggest that exactly the same pieces should be used on the 20HP. except for a somewhat reduced length.
