Water Shuttle Process to the water shuttle, set up and operations.
The Drafting operation • To set up and pump 250 GPM of water in five minutes. • To start flowing 500 GPM after ten minutes. • To sustain the 500 GPM flow for two hours
The Fill Operation • To refill the tanker and get the trucks back to the scene as quickly as possible. • The use of the pumper and all it’s discharges would be useful at this time to refill as fast as possible. • When drafting it is necessary to flow water all the time with some sort of discharge to keep the pump cool and to keep the prime in the pump.
