andopen the force valve a quarter-way, then close overflow. Where does the inspirator get its power? The steam escapes from the boiler with great velocity, and,as it passes through the suction jet, draws the air along withit, and thus creates a vacuum. Atmospheric pressure forcesthe water up into… … Inspirators. BOILERS 43 is penetrated into the boiler against a higher pressure thanitself. The inspirator connection should be taken from a separatepipe from the steam-space, not from the steam pipe to engine.Inspirators will pump against one-half as much more pressureas is on boiler.
