VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for "The Comet Transmitter, " a device designed as a vital safeguard for high-pressure hydraulic systems. The product is named after "THE COMET" and was supplied to notable aviation companies such as Blackburn Aircraft Co. , Fairey Aviation Co. , Bristol Aircraft Co. , and Short Bros. Limited. The image shows the transmitter itself, which appears to be a robust mechanical component with metal housing, connected by flexible hosing or cabling, leading to what looks like a pressure gauge or sensor. It's described as A. R. B. approved, suggesting it met certain aviation regulatory standards of the time. Below the illustration of the device is text highlighting its importance in preventing dangers on aircraft that could arise from a burst hydraulic gauge or failing piping. This simple yet crucial piece of equipment ensures that even if there's an issue with gauges or pipes, it provides absolute protection to the hydraulic system. At the bottom of the advertisement are details about Barnet Instruments Limited, located at Bath Place, Barnet Herts (Hertfordshire), including their telephone number and telegram contact information—indicative of communication methods prevalent during that era when this ad was likely published.
