Terry Announces New GLT Single-Stage Turbine —Literature Available William L. Wathen, president of Terry Steam Turbine, Windsor, Conn., recently announced a small auxiliary turbine, the first new small turbine to be developed by the in- dustry in 20 years. The GLT solid-wheel, single- stage machines are designed to meet requirements of API 611 and are available in ratings to 200 hp. They feature total standardization, oil- free lubricating system, overhung design, innovative governor valve and tight shut-off trip valve, true centerline support and low installa- tion and maintenance cost. The unit's high temperature ball bearings are sealed and grease packed with an L-10 life in excess of 50,000 hours, and require no lubri- cation oil. The governor drive gear design is oversized for ruggedness and uses non-metallic gears which eliminate the need for a coupling and lube oil. Reduced maintenance/parts costs are realized with features that in- clude a one-piece body for the gov- ernor and tight shut-off trip and throttle valves, elimination of both valve bonnet and joint, single stem penetration and a valve system de- sign that permits the trip valve to be opened against full line pressure. GLT installation simplicity is achieved with such features as abso- lute standardization of the basic en- velope, uniform mounting dimen- sions and uniform steam connec- tions for all sized machines. Some popular control options are avail- able, a solenoid trip, electronic ta- chometer and hand valves. Also E) FRED DEVINE DIVING & SALVAGE, INC.
