Any information on the De Laval No.7 Separator welcomed. When where they manufactured? What do they look like when complete? Etc.

Hello all
A No. 7 would nearly have to be a 'Junior sized' separator wouldn't it?

Cheers Scott

Hi Scott,
I am very new to separators. I became interested due to having a De Laval stationary engine. I have or are in the process of acquiring a No.2,5 and 7. The 7 was the first. I have found out that 1,2,3,4 and 6 are classed as 'Junior' series. No.11,14,18 and 19 'World Standard  Series'. There is little info available on all these separators.Regards tracttap.

Hello tracttap
I went looking at my information and all I found was a manual sort of thing for the World Standard Series. They do not specify which model number the book covers. It just covers the World Standard Series. If you'd like a copy let me know.
I thought I had some other literature but my wonky old eyes has yet to locate it. Maybe when I find it something useful will be there?  ???
I also have an old mate who knows a bit about separators. When I see him next I'll ask if he knows anything

Cheers then
Scott

Hi Scott,
Please send me a copy of the info you have. I presently find info by looking at various brochures etc that are on Ebay. Not the best reference source but at least something.
I have purchased a couple of items from Ebay but they are due to arrive any day now. They donot cover the units I have but are better than nothing and all good background info. Do you have any info on De Laval stationary engines. As mentioned previously thats what started all this thread.
