2.3 ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR USE.
2.3.1 Site Location.
Site requirements will be based on the needs of the system in
which the pumping assembly is to be used.
The pumping assemblies are components of
a Tactical Water Distribution Equipment System (TWDS).
Refer to applicable TWDS
technical manual for site requirements.
When used as a source pumping station, the
site location will be determined by the location of the water source.
When used as
boost pumping station(s), the spacing and location(s) will be determined by the
configuration of the line (hoseline or pipeline) to which the pumping assembly is
connected.
Requirements for the TWDS hoseline are defined in applicable TWDS
technical manual.
For all requirements, the site should be as level as possible
and must be capable of being traversed by the vehicle used to tow the pumping
assembly.
The following procedure is applicable to all three models of the 600 GPM
pumping assemblies.
Procedures may vary slightly between models.
2.3.2 Assembly and Preparation of Pumping Assemblies.
