Hi chaps
Have come by a water pump. Said pump is Bamfords or perhaps Ransomes pattern, with a big gear and a small pinion on one side and a drive pulley, crank and con-rod on the other side, and macho cross-head and piston rod, not forgetting a beautifully phallic pulsation damper vessel in the highest quality grey cast. It is all lovingly pre-owned (completely knackered). On the main bore casting, there are the magical runes "4"" on the one side and "COMPACTUM" on the other. Anyone venture to identify it?
Also recovered from the stinking pit was an Alfa Laval Type 100 Vacuum Pump, S/N 24285 - anyone got a date? A manual? Source of spares? Lottery win, anyone?
TTFN
