Tandem
TurboDraft Operations
(* Minimum required pump size: 500 GPM)
- Set
up and establish the first TurboDraft unit as discussed under
"TurboDraft Set-Up/Operation" on pages 4-6. Refill the
tank.*
- Lay
out the second unit connecting its 2-1/2 inch charge line to a
2-1/2 inch outlet and its 5 inch supply line to the truck's officer
side steamer connection.**
- Using
the first TurboDraft as a supply, charge the second unit's 2-1/2
inch supply line.
- Once
the second unit's 5 inch line has been bled free of air, slowly
open its suction valve.
- Begin
water supply operations by slowly opening the required discharge
valves.
*The unit with the longest 5 inch line should be set up first and
connected to the driver side steamer/intake.
**The second steamer must be fitted with a suction valve and air
bleeder. A front or rear suction may be used in lieu of the other
steamer if a suction of hard sleeve is installed between the 5 inch
hose and the suction connection. This is necessary to prevent premature
collapse of this line.
