1862 London Exhibition: Catalogue: Class IX.: Henry Ormson
2160. ORMSON, HENRY, Stanley Bridge, King's Road, Chelsea, London, S.W.
Conservatory, hot-water tubular boilers, etc.
ORMSON'S PATENT JOINTLESS TUBULAR BOILER, an original invention, is now fully acknowledged to surpass the old-fashioned jointed tubular boilers, which have been made for the last 20 or 30 years by all other manufacturers. The advantages of this patent will be manifest to every person's understanding from the following facts. For instance, one of the old-fashioned jointed boilers with 50 tubes would have 100 joints made of rope-yarn and cements exposed to the direct action of the fire; whereas in this patent there is not one joint so exposed. It should be fully understood that as the old-fashioned jointed tubular boiler increases in size, and in number of tubes and joints, its liability to leakage also increases, and hence the reason why Ormson's one-boiler system and patent jointless tubular boilers have become so universally adopted on account of their superior power, great safety, and economy:—
- Ormson's No. 1 boilers are heating upwards of 250 ft. of pipe.
- Ormson's No. 2 boilers are heating upwards of 600 ft. of pipe.
- Ormson's No. 3 boilers are heating upwards of 1,300 ft. of pipe.
- Ormson's No. 4 boilers are heating upwards of 3,000 ft. of pipe.
- Ormson's No. 5 boilers are heating upwards of 5,000 ft. of pipe.
These boilers can be made in larger sizes if required, to heat 12,000 or 15,000 ft. of pipe.
Henry Ormson, horticultural builder to Her Majesty, and hot-water apparatus manufacturer to the Commissioners of Her Majesty's royal palaces and public buildings, and to the Royal Horticultural Society, Stanley Bridge, King's Road, Chelsea, London, S.W.
