TACTICAL WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEM (TWPS)
PREPARATION FOR USE AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
COLD WEATHER SET-UP OPERATION UNDER UNUSUAL CONDITIONS
Deploy the extended product water distribution system equipment as follows (see Figure 31):
WARNING
Two person lift. Two people are required to safely lift the product water
distribution water tanks. Lift with your legs, not your back. Failure to observe this
warning may result in back injury.
Three person lift. Three people are required to lift Diesel-Driven Distribution Pump
P-8. Lift with your legs, not your back. Failure to observe this warning may result
in back injury.
1. Position Extended Product Water Distribution Tanks T-5, T-6, and T-7 as follows:
a. Place the distribution tanks in their rough locations. Make sure Tank T-7 is positioned
close enough for Hose P02 and its heating blanket power cable to reach the T-7 Tank
inlet (see Figure 32).
b. Unfold the ground cloth from around each tank and unfold each tank on its ground cloth.
c. Spread the tanks out to their final shape and eliminate any ridges in the bottoms.
Position the tanks about 6-ft. apart with the connections facing each other.
d. Pull the tank inlet and outlet connections out away from the tank bottoms so that they will
be clear when the tanks are filled.
e. Diesel-Driven Distribution Pump P-8 should be kept warm inside the heated TWPS
enclosure until ready to start and deploy. If it was not, it must be moved inside and
warmed for at least an hour to avoid freezing of water when introduced into the pump.
