DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION. The FAWPSS system illustrated in this manual is a portable, self containedunit that dispenses potable drinking water to troop units in arid regions. The FAWPSS is operated by a 125GPMcentrifugal pump. Six 500gallon water storage and dispensing drums are attached. two at a time. Quick-disconnectcouplings connect the drum and balance the system; these drums provide water, by the suction of the 125 GPM pumpthrough hoses, valves, and connecting assys. to four distribution nozzles, where the water is manually discharged. Watermay be taken from both 500 gallon drums by opening two sets of valves numbered (2 and 4, figure 11) or you may chooseto use only one drum by closing valves (2 and 4, figure 11) on one side of the system. Leaving the remaining valves openwill allow use of one drum so that the other may be serviced or repaired. The amount of water discharged through thenozzles can be varied.Change 8 1-7/(1-8 blank)
