Hi

Here are some pictures of some old Drammens Jern recips. The big one is from the mid 50's and the smaller one from 47. These where in use until 10-12 years ago, but are now trashed.

Lovely old thumpers, would love to have the smaller unit as a tinker toy!
Thanks for photos

The compressors where in a old fish factory here in Tromsoe, Norway. Big ammonia plant. There was 2 of the big one, and i think 8-10 of the smaller one. In the early 90's they got a Howden WRV to take over some of the job from these recips, but the the technician who had been working there for 30-40 years didn't like it, so they removed it :-)
