Hok Un power station manufacturer’s nameplates
IDJ says “the posting of the article, CLP: The construction of Hok Un power station 1921, Part Four, (linked below), showing its manufacturer’s nameplate, (see the image below), reminded me that I have a couple of the manufacturer’s nameplates from that machine.”
When the ‘A’ Station was being demolished a number of items were salvaged for technician training purposes and relocated elsewhere in the company. Amongst that material these nameplates have since followed me around.
Le Blanc Steam Ejectors were used to create a vacuum in the steam turbines ‘condensers’ in order to turn the steam from the turbine back into water to be reused in the boilers.
