RE SEQUENCE SILENT STARTER X7650
As I have received a note from Mr. Royce asking me to report upon what progress has been made to date on the development of the sequence silent starter, I should be pleased if you would let me know as soon as possible the present position in the experimental shop of -
(1) The new design of solenoid actuator box and pinion operated switch.
(2) The rearranged motor epicyclic gear for lower gear ratio.
and (3) The duplex push button starter switch.
Would you also let me know approximately when we may expect to have the complete set of units ready for our laboratory test.
EFC.
