Protected by Your High-Pressure Gun Type Burner. . .Electrie Ignition... Burns No. 5 0il Supplied by A. J. Mine. Visceosity Valve To insure the perfection of ‘the automizing means at all times with every start, and every stop of the heater, every drop of oil is withdrawn from the nozzle and the fuel supply tube to the nozzle, resulting in the purging and scavenging of the restricted passageways constantly. The VISCOSITY VALVE principle is responsible for the device that brings this about. Ligquid Bath Heater Through the use of warm water in this new oil burner the term "LIQUID BATH HEATER" is just what it says. It serves the purpose of keep- ing the heater cool right up to the nozzle itself after the burner is shut down, thereby eliminat- ing the possibility of carbonizing at the nozzle tip.
