The piston is movedby thepressure of water in one direction, which movement is transmitted to the cold-water-injection valve I will now describe my withreference to the accompanying drawings, in whic three-way cock.

This pipe usually contains a but in this invention I have represented simply a which may be understood as the injectionvalve or a simple cut-off valve? a? represents the outlet-pipe from the condenser carrying the waters of condensation and all the liquid GOHtBTLlStOf the condenser to the. hot well.

The thermometer extends back into the tube T, and is fitted with two contact-points projecting into the mercury column, one of theconductors being located at a :poin close the electric circuit and the other at some point below this.

The pressure of water in cylinder W will then force the piston and the weight X. upward, allowing weighty to pull lever Y down and open to a greater extent the valve a supplying the cold water. When the supply of water is too great for thc'work .ot condensi'ngthe steam in the condenser, the lowering of' the temthe'cold-water supply perature in the. pipe o causes the thermonn trolled by said motor; eter to break the circuit and (lo-energize relay scribed.
