TM 10-4930-240-13 1-10.  LOCATIONAND DESCRIPION OFMAJOR COMPONENTS. Refer to figure 1-1. The  AFARE  consists  of  collapsible  fuel  drums,  a  turbine  powered  fuel  pump,  filter  separator,  pressure  , reducing valve, fueling manifold, refueling nozzles and the necessary hoses, tees and couplings required to assemble  the  system.    The  following  paragraphs  describe  a  typical  AFARE  system.    Your  mission  and operating  environment  may  require  connecting  the  components  in  a  different  configuration  than  the  one shown.  All components are interchangeable. a. 500 Gallon Drums (1).    Three  collapsible  500  gallon  drums  are  supplied.    The  drums  serve  as  the primary fuel source for operating the system.  The drums are cylindrical m shape with rounded ends and are equipped with male quick disconnect adapters.  The drums may be refilled or replaced when empty.    For  location  and  description  of  major  components  on  the  500  gallon  drum,  refer  to  TM10- 8110-203-12&P. b. Drum Couplers (2).  Drum couplers are connected between the 500 gallon drums and the system fuel hoses.  Couplers are hand operated by a control lever mounted on top of the valve body. c. Tees (3).  Tees are used to assemble the AFARE system and prevent sharp bends in fuel hoses.  All tees are equipped with 3-inch quick disconnect couplings. d. Suction Hoses (4).  Non-collapsible suction hoses are used to distribute fuel from one component to the  other  and  are  installed  where  suction  pressures  will  occur.    Suction  hoses  are  supplied  in  two diameters, 2-inch and 3-inch,and are equipped with quick disconnect couplings at both ends. e. Skid  Mounted  Fueling  Manifold  (5).    The  fueling  manifold  is  skid  mounted  and  comprised  of  hand operated gate valves, tees and couplings.  A cover is provided to protect the manifold during storage and shipment.  The manifold is supplied with 3-inch quick disconnect couplings. f. Discharge Hoses (6).  Collapsible discharge hoses are used to distribute fuel from one component to the other and are installed where discharge pressures will occur.  Discharge hoses are supplied in two diameters, 2-inch and 3-inch,and are equipped with quick disconnect couplings at both ends. g. Pressure  Reducing  Skid  Assembly  (7).    The  skid  mounted  pressure  reducing  assembly  contains  a pressure  regulator,  gate  valve,  and  related  piping  mounted  on  a  metal  skid.    Both  ends  of  the assembly are equipped with quick disconnect couplings.  A cover is provided to protect the assembly during storage and shipment. h. Wyes (8).  Wyes are used to assemble the AFARE system and are installed where fuel distribution must be split.  All wyes are equipped with 2-inch quick disconnect couplings. 1-4
