D21: Noble beauty in red and black

The D21 steam engine is a power machine with a double-acting, fixed brass cylinder.

The technical data correspond to those of the D 20, but here the special coloring should be emphasized, which gives this machine a particularly elegant finish:

All metal parts are painted in black and red. The flywheel was also painted red. This special machine is rounded off by highly polished precious brass parts.

A special technical feature is the built-in feed water pump, which can only be found in the Wilesco range on the D21 steam engine.

Water pump allows refilling during operation

This water pump allows the boiler to be refilled with water while the steam engine is in operation. The condensate is drained into a condensate tray below the chimney, causing the chimney to steam. The steam outlet on the D21 can be regulated manually using a steam shut-off valve. The engine is powered by our dry fuel Witabs, one charge of Witabs is enough for about 10-15 minutes of steam fun.

From the first ignition of the steam engine, it takes about 5 minutes until sufficient steam pressure has built up and the engine can be started. The D21 then also has enough power to drive several drive models. In this way, the conversion of thermal energy into kinetic energy can be followed very clearly. It is also a lot of fun to have the D21 generate electricity and light by connecting the M66 dynamo or M66/2 dynamo with lantern, which are available separately!
