Also referred to as Multiplicator, Liberator, Compound Disintegrator for progressively dissociating water into its constituent parts thus multiplying its inherent or latent expansive power or force (pressure) held in abeyance by syntropic forces. Actually, it progressively liberates or releases the latent forces.
Keely
Keely pursued the line of "invention" instead of "discovery" from 1872, and his thoughts were thus concentrated until 1882. Engine after engine was scrapped as old metal, in his failures to construct one that would keep up the rotary motion of the ether that was necessary to hold it in any structure. Explosion after explosion occurred, sometimes harmless, at other times laying him up for weeks. He spent two more years endeavoring to devise an automatic control to enable the machine for liberating the energy to be handled by an operator and in 1884 he stated he was commencing to make real progress. [Snell Manuscript - The Book, page 2]
"In the image of man" Keely constructed his liberator. Not literally, but, as his vibrophone (for collecting the waves of sound and making each wave distinct from the other in tone when the "wave plate" is struck after the sound has died away) is constructed after the human ear so his liberator corresponds in its parts to the human head. [Snell Manuscript - The Book, page 2]
"The Liberator is pure sympathetic concordance in perfect harmony. Any inharmonious or discordant sound will cause it to rotate."
"In the image of man" Keely constructed his liberator. Not literally, but, as his vibrophone (for collecting the waves of sound and making each wave distinct from the other in tone when the "wave plate" is struck after the sound has died away) is constructed after the human ear, so his liberator corresponds in its parts to the human head.
To move suddenly a square inch of air at the velocity of his vibratory circuit, on full line of graduation and at a vibration only of 2,750,000 per second, would require a force at least of twenty-five times that of gunpowder, and at 21,000 lbs. per sq. inch it would be 525,000 lbs. per square inch. The finer the substance the greater the power and velocity under such vibrations.
The vapor from the liberator, registered at 20,000 lbs. per square inch has a range of atomic motion of 1333 1/3 the diameter of the atmospheric molecule with constant rotary vibratory action. At 10,000 lbs., 666 2/3, at 5,000, 333 1/3, at 2500, 166 2/3, at 1250, 83 1/3, at 625, 41 2/3. The higher the range of atomic motion the greater its tenuity and pressure. The very evolution on the negative shows a vacuum of a much higher order than was ever produced before confounding all theory to analyze. The highest vacuum known is 17.999999, or not quite 30 inches, but Keely produced etheric vacuums repeatedly of 50 to 57 inches ranging down to 30 inches or 57 lbs. All operations of nature have for their sensitizing centers of introductory action, triple vacuum evolutions. These evolutions are centered in atomic triple revolutions, highly radiophonic in their character and thoroughly independent of all outside forces in their spheres of action. No conceivable power, however great, can break up their independent centers. These triple centers are the foundation of the universe, and mathematically considered, the respective and relative motion of these atomic triplets, gravitating to and revolving around each other, is about one and one-third of their circumference. The problem of this action, when analyzed mathematically, (taking it as the quadrature of the circle) would baffle mathematical science to bring it to a numerical equation. Every revolving body is impressed by nature with certain laws making it susceptible of the operation of force, which being applied, impels motion. These bodies never can approach nearer than a certain limit, nor farther than a certain point. They are, at some mean point, made perfectly equal, and may therefore be considered as one force and as one element. It matters not that other and disturbing forces exist outside or inside the space these bodies revolve in, because if this force must be considered as acting uniformly, applying itself to each of these bodies in a way to produce a perfect equation on all, it is as if this outside force were nonexisting. [Snell Manuscript - The Book, page 2]
"My right hand and arm were ... severely strained, but I have not been idle ... have been setting up a key to explain vibratory rotation. I have a plan for a device attached to the liberator to show when the neutral center is free from its intensification while operating. In this way the dangerous influences will be avoided which present themselves on the extension of the vibratory waves that operate the gun. All ... introductory details of the present engine are as perfect as is possible for the first lead. It is in the form of a sphere, about thirty inches in diameter and weighs 800 lbs. Yesterday saw the pure, positive action of my new Liberator. Mr. Collier and his brother George were present and witnessed thirty expulsions, made by myself after which I had them produce the vapor, by imitating my manipulations which they were unable to do with the old generator. The last three weeks ... I have suffered from accidents, disappointments, etc. ... all things seemed to go wrong." Under another date he writes "...Am now preparing new features that are necessary as adjuncts to denote the true condition as regards safety in my different vibratory operations ... I had an accident to one of my registers this morning. It burst with a tremendous report, shaking things up in a lively way but no other damage was done beyond that to the register."
"The draughts are nearly completed for the compound vibratory engine ... the machine for continuous operation. The Liberator is as perfect as is possible, and if the outside adjuncts are in proper sympathy, my struggles will soon be at an end ... Could I have one wish gratified, I would ask to live long enough to be able to appreciate even but one etheric variation in planetary evolution."
May 20th. "Yesterday was a day of trials and disappointments. After laboring six hours to set my safety process, the first operation of the Liberator tore the caps all to pieces. I replaced them with a set of duplicates and set the Liberator down to the low octaves, when everything worked to a charm. Night was approaching ... I left the workshop to get something to eat, returning about eight o'clock to discover the cause of the sudden and most unexpected intensification. I followed up with great care the progressive lines until I reached the tenth octave, and then liberated a score of times, yet no variation on Liberator. Next, I made an attachment to my safety arrangement and also to my strongest resonator, to experiment on vibratory rotation with my shell when, within two minutes, it attained a frightful velocity then I suddenly retracted to the negative, bringing the velocity down from about 1500 per minute to 150. The operation lasted sixty-four minutes, when a second intensification took place, demolishing two safety shells and one vibratory indicator. I was perfectly dumb-founded and unable to account for such a phenomenon. After an hour's reflection, I set up a new position on the resonating wave plates in the forty resonating circuit on the base of the Liberator, and got a result which for uniformity surpassed all experiments I have ever made. I believe I have ... shall be able to ... obtain continuity of action with perfect rotation." [Keely and His Discoveries]
August 5th. "I have met with an accident to the Liberator. I was experimenting on the third order of intensification, when the rotation on the circuit was thrown down in the compound resonating chamber, which by the instantaneous multiplication of the volume induced thereby, caused an explosion bursting the metal casing which enclosed the forty resonators, completely dismantling the Liberator. The shock took my senses from me for a few moments, but I was not even scratched this time. A part of the wall was torn away and resonators and vibrators were thrown all over the room. The neighborhood was quite lively but I quieted all fears by telling them ... I was only experimenting. I allowed everything to remain until Dr. Woods and Mr. Collier had seen the effect of the explosion.
The orders of intensification for accelerating Dissociation would not be understood by any explanations that could be made, if unaccompanied by the demonstrations witnessed by the late Prof. Leidy, Dr. Brinton and others.
When the ether flows from the tube, its negative center presents molecular subdivision, carrying interstitially (or between its molecules) the lowest order of liberated ozone. This is the first order of ozone and is wonderfully refreshing and vitalizing to those who breathe it. The second order, or Atomic separation, releases a much higher grade of ozone in fact, too pure for inhalation, as it produces insensibility. The third order, or etheric, is the one that has been (though attended with much danger to the operator) utilized by Keely in his carbon register to produce the circuit of high vibration that breaks up the molecular magnetism which is recognized as cohesion. The acceleration of these orders is governed by the introductory impulse on a certain combination of vibratory chords, arranged for this purpose in the instrument, with which Keely dissociates the elements of water, and which he calls a Liberator.
In molecular Dissociation one fork of 620 is used, setting the chords on the first octave.
In Atomic separation, two forks one of 620 and one of 630 per second, setting the chords on the second octave.
In the etheric (subdivision) three forks one of 620, one of 630 and one of 12,000, setting the chords on the third octave.
"The work on the vibratory engine is progressing ... The safety arrangements which I am having attached to my Liberator will greatly improve it. Its operation will now be conducted with a gum bulb instead of a violin bow, - the pressure of which gives the introductory chord of impulse that vitalizes the whole machine. The chords will all be set in progressive sympathy from the first octave to the fortieth..."
December 17, 1885. "The setting up of the circles for computing the different lines of etheric chords, in setting the vibratory conditions for continuity requires costly study. I feel convinced that ... perfect solution ... will follow when this ... has been completed ... I find my chief trouble in chording up the masses of the different parts composing the negative centers. The negative center is included in the one-third volume of shell or sphere, starting from the neutral axis or point of suspension. This point of suspension only becomes perfect when the rotation is established on the sphere. One hundred revolutions per minute is all the velocity required to neutralize the gravity of the central third with the velocity of the vibratory circuit at one hundred thousand per second ... The month of January (1886) ought to find all completed ready for sympathetic graduation..."
Norman Lockyer ... "One feels as if dealing with something (molecules) that is more like a mental than a physical attribute ... a sort of expression of free will on the part of the molecules." Herein lies one of the secrets of Mr. Keely's ... "compound secret." Again "The law which connects radiation with absorption, and at once enables us to read the riddle set by the sun and stars is then, simple the law of sympathetic vibration." This is the cornerstone of Mr. Keely's philosophy his discovery. [Snell Manuscript]
"The vapor from the liberator, registered at 20,000 lbs. per square inch has a range of atomic motion of 1333 1/3 the diameter of the atmospheric molecule with constant rotary vibratory action.

"After laboring six hours to set my safety process, the first operation of the Liberator tore the caps of the resonating tubes all to pieces. I replaced them with duplicates and set the Liberator on the low octaves, when everything worked to a charm. I followed up with great care the progressive chords to the tenth octave and liberated a score of times with the gun, yet no variation or intensification on the Liberator. I worked the Liberator continuously for 64 minutes on the revolving sphere when a second intensification took place, demolishing two safety shells and one vibratory indicator. I am unable to account for this. I then set up a position on the resonating wave plates in the forty resonating circuit and secured the best results I have ever yet secured. I believe I shall be able to obtain continuity of motion with perfect rotation." [MECHANICAL DEVICES FOR SAFETY]
He has again reduced in size the instrument producing the force. From 1882 to 1884 the "Generator" was six feet long and corresponding wide and high, but failing to make the arrangement automatic upon which its mechanical usefulness depended, Keely found a new standard for research in an experiment often made by himself, but never before successful, which resulted in invention in 1885 of the "Liberator" not so large as a lady's small round worktable. He made astonishing progress with this beautiful piece of vibratory mechanism, so as to combine the production of the power, operation of the cannon, his engine and his disintegrator in a machine no larger than a dinner plate and only three or four inches in thickness. This was completed in 1886, up to which time his experiments were upon the principle of sympathetic vibration, for liberating a vapory or etheric product. His later experiments were another modification of vibratory sympathy, and the size of the instrument used now, 1888, for the same purposes is no larger than an old fashioned silver watch. A pressure of 30,000 lbs. to the square inch in raising of the lever, and all other operations, without one ounce of pressure in any part of the apparatus, are effected by the ether. The force is transmitted along a wire of platinum and silver. Keely has named this new modification "Negative Attraction." The two forms of force with which he has experimented and the attendant phenomena, are exactly antithetical. It is by changing the vibrations of the cosmic ether that Keely releases this energy. Dr. Dupuy, of New York, experimented along these lines for many years, but without success to the degree Keely had. [underline added] [Snell Manuscript - The Book, page 3]
"The system of arranging introductory etheric impulses by compound chords set by differential harmonies is one that the world of science has never recognized. Beyond disintegration lies dispersion, and it is as easy to disperse as to disintegrate."
His first system requires introductory mediums of differential gravities air as one, and water as the other, to disturb equilibrium and liberate the etheric vapor. This subdivision only reaches the interatomic position and the "atomic and molecular leads" were submerged in the Generator he then used. He could not go beyond the atomic with his instrument and could not dispense with water until the Liberator was invented. In his first system he did not reach full maximum line of vibration. His first system embraced Generator, Engine and Gun.
His second system he considered complete as far as liberation of the ether is concerned but was not perfected so as to assure safety to the operator. His sundry devices for indicating and governing the vibratory etheric circuit also left much to be desired.
His third system embraced aerial and submarine navigation. He was then completing an experimental sphere intended to test the combination of the positive and negative in rotary action. [DISINTEGRATION OF MATTER - THREE SYSTEMS]
With his Generator, which was invented for the purpose of multiplication of vibrations, he secured higher frequencies by disturbance of equilibrium of mediums of different specific gravities, air as one, water as the other.
In the disintegration of water in his "Liberator" he produced the "etheric order of ozone." This he is said to have used in a "carbon register" to produce a high vibratory circuit that proved sufficient to break up cohesion, which he states is simply molecular magnetism. At that time he used, in molecular dissociation, one tuning fork of 620 per second, setting chords on the first octave, in atomic separation, two forks, one of 620 and one of 630, setting chords on the second octave, and in etheric separation used three forks, one of 620, one of 630 and one of 12,000, setting chords on the third octave.
