There are different styles of valves used for throttles, such as Globe Valves, Butterfly Valves, Disc Valves, etc.

Lunkenheimer Throttle Valve.

The Lunkenheimer is a double disc valve, and is operated by the handle or rod attachment, and requires no lock or ratchet.

STEAM PUMP.

An Independent Steam Pump is virtually an engine with two cylinders, one for the steam piston, the other for the water piston or plunger, and is used in connection with a steam boiler for supplying it with water. The discharge pipe of a pump is generally connected with a feed water heater of some sort, which heats the water to a high temperature before entering the boiler, though there is a late pattern of steam pump which delivers the feed water to the boiler at about the same temperature as the injector. The cylinder of steam pump should always be well oiled before starting in the morning and stopping at night. The stuffing boxes on piston and valve rod should in all cases be kept well filled with soft and moist packing. If the packing is allowed to become dry and hard, it will cut the rod, inducing leakage and necessitating repairs. When a steam pump is not in use in cold weather all the drain, drip and pet cocks should be left open, to allow the water to run out. While most farm engines are furnished with an independent steam pump, some are equipped with what is called a cross-head pump.

J. I. Case Steam Pump.

A Cross-Head Pump is operated by a plunger attached to the cross-head of engine and has two valves, a supply and a discharge valve, also is supplied with an air chamber. This style of pump is available only when engine is running. Engines with a cross-head pump should always be supplied with an injector to be used in case of failure of pump to work and while engine is shut down. The cross-head pump is connected to the heater in the same manner as an independent pump.

Q. How high will the steam pump lift water?
