The Nash Gas Pumping Engine
The Nash horizontal pumping engine (Fig. 140) is especially adapted for elevating water to the upper floors of buildings. It is of the two-cycle type, with piston gas and exhaust valves operated from eccentrics on the crank shaft. It is operated with either gas or gasoline.
The pump is located vertically within the engine frame, with a bell-crank lever above, and connecting rods to pump and engine pistons. This is the smallest engine made by this company, has a three-inch cylinder, four-inch stroke, and is equal to 4/10 B. H. P. in water delivered, or 100 gallons 100 feet high per hour. |
