Danish Instrument Inventory text:

Turbine. Segnèr's. A mahogany frame supports the sheet metal turbine, consisting of a top container for fluid, which escapes through slanted holes at the bottom. Here the fluid enters the rotor, also through slanted inlets, thus forcing it to rotate. A tray at the bottom has a spout for letting the fluid out. The rotation is via an angled mahogany gear transferred to a horizontal mahogany axle, by which a burden may be hoisted. Overall H760. Mahogany base 330x210.Not signedc1800 (g)
