Electric Power Beats Steam

The manufacturer who has his eye n his cost sheets cannot afford to
disregard the expenses of his power plant
Sentiment cus no figure in such case. The. question with him Is
how can efficiency be increased without adding to the costs, O better still, how
can he get a more efficient drive at a reduced cost
Central Station Electric Power is the answer n nine caseso out of ten.
This statement is not a mere guess It is founded on fact and can be
subtantated by actual experiences.
One case which might be cited is that of the Chhle Products Company.
whose plant is on Mt Pleasant avenue, Newark. This concern formerly
maintained a duplicate power plant including As H. F. steam engine and
a45 H. P. oil engine. 1t discarded both and substituted an installation of
electric motors aggregatng 40 H. P, which are driven by Central Station
current
The change has resulted in a more economical more satisfactory and
more efficient power drive.
What Central Station Power has accomplished for the Chkle Products
Company it can accomplish for Others
Let our engineers demonstrate what it can do in your particular case.
