AVALON BLVD. • WILMINGTON, CA. 90744 PHONE (213) 518-0940 Kiene Diesel Accessories Offers Free Literature On Products Kiene Diesel Accessories' products, The K- Series of Cylinder Pressure Indicators and the Kiene Indicator Valves, or "Cocks" as they are sometimes known, continue to be used by major engine manufacturers and operators worldwide. The K-Series of indicators are currently avail- able in two models covering two pressure ranges. For engines with peak firing pressures from 700 psi (45 kg/cm2), the K-100 with a pressure range of 0-2,000 psi (0-140 kg/cm2) is recommended, and for engines with peak firing pressures between 1,000 to 2,200 psi, the K-107 with a pressure range of 0-3,000 psi (0-210 kg/cm2) is available. The indicator is designed to connect to all standard indicator valves (cocks), and allow the operator to quickly measure the engine peak pressures while the engine is in operation and under load. The K-Series instrument is recom- mended by many engine builders throughout the world, and used by major engine operators worldwide. The Kiene V-Line and A-Line Indicator Valves were also developed as an answer to the problem of indicator valves opening during engine operation, thus causing a loss of power from a cylinder and an unsafe operating condi- tion. The Kiene Valve (Cock) eliminates the opening of the valves during operation by using the "open against/close with engine pressure" concept, whereby the pressure the engine devel- ops acts to hold the valve closed, instead of opening the valve as occurs with most other valves. Kiene's current production includes indicator valves for engines manufactured by builders such as Oy Wartsila of Finland, Fairbanks- Morse Engine Division of Colt Industries, Coop- er Energy Services and others. Kiene has the capability to manufacture indi- cator valves with pipe threads, British standard threads (Whitworth or parallel pipe), metric threads, and other thread configurations that may be required by engine builders or opera- tors.

These patterns will expand the company's standard line of workboat and fishboat fixed-pitch propellers. The new patterns, formerly supplied as "Hydrosonic Style I," will be offered by Bird-Johnson as the "Atlantic No Rake (ANR)" Type. Also purchased were numerous Kaplan Style patterns which will broaden the variety of short delivery nozzle propellers available and a num- ber of custom designed spare or replacement propeller patterns. Bird-Johnson's Seattle Operations of Seattle, Wash., will be the principal manufacturing site for these new fixed-pitch propellers. The Seattle operation consists of a small propeller repair and Michigan Wheel distribution shop as well as a foundry facility largely engaged in the casting and finishing of Coolidge Propellers. Coolidge Propellers are currently available in Type B, Type C, Type D, Atlantic, Pacific and Kaplan Styles from 3 feet to 12 feet diameter and in a variety of blade configurations. Bird-Johnson Company is one of the leading U.S. manufacturers of controllable and fixed- pitch propellers for commercial and naval appli- cations with facilities in Walpole, Mass., Pasca- goula, Miss., and Seattle, Wash.

The yard recently received an order to build a sister ship of the Seabourn Pride for a Norwegian owner. Seebeckwerft AG of Bremerhaven, West Ger- many, recently received an order to build a sec- ond luxury cruise ship for Seabourn Cruise Line, after the Norwegian ship operator exercised an option from a previously awarded contract. The as-yet-unnamed vessel, yard newbuilding No. 1070, will be the sister ship of the Seabourn Pride, which is currently under construction at Seebeckwerft. Like her sister ship, newbuilding No. 1070 will have an overall length of 439 feet, beam of 62-1/4 feet, design draft of 16-1/2 feet and cruising speed of about 19 knots. She will be targeted for the luxury market, with a passenger capacity of 212 in 106 outside suites. Both ships will offer elaborate and spacious public rooms, restaurants, a marina and an elaborate health spa. The Seabourn Pride is expected to be deliv- ered in November 1988.
