2.6.7 Optional Tank Configuration (1 Unit 0-6 Tanks) -Cont'd.
NSN
c.
50,000 gallon fabric tanks above may be used to supplement the capacity of the contaminated fuel module if
necessary.
d.
50,000 gallon fabric collapsible tanks are fully described in Department of the Army TM 5-5430-210-12.
2-6.8 Tanker-Truck Receipt Option (3 Sets)
NSN 3835-01-210-5617
a.
The three tanker-truck receipt manifolds provide the TPT with the pumps, valves and manifolding necessary to
allow the off-loading of petroleum products from tank-trucks if required. A bypass line around the pump is provided,
allowing the manifold to be used to load tank-trucks to supplement the fuel dispensing set, if required. The partial or full
installation of this facility is optional, depending on site needs.
b.
A tanker-truck receipt manifold (Fig. 2-67) has four tanker-truck unloading stations using 4-inch ball valves with
3-inch quick disconnect couplings. The 600 GPM hoseline pump (see para. 2-4.3) provides the means to deliver the
product to the TPT. The truck unloading valves are connected to 4-inch suction hose (Fig. 2-36) which are connected to
6-inch suction hose (Fig. 2-33) leading to the pump. The bypass around the pump is made up of 6-inch discharge hose
(Fig. 2-32). Three 6-inch aluminum tee assemblies (Fig. 2-40) and four 6x6x4-inch aluminum tees (Fig. 2-56) provide
the necessary connections in the manifold.
c.
To connect the receipt manifold to the TPT and maintain a safe separation between the components (see
General Plot Plan, Fig. 2-2) 250 ft. long 6-inch hoseline sections from the transfer hoseline kit can be utilized as
necessary (Fig. 2-30).
2-6.9 Multiple TPT Installations
Multiple TPT's can be installed in one general location if required by operations in a particular Petroleum Distribution
System Inland Portion Area. The details of multiple installations are beyond the scope of this manual which is for a
single typical TPT only. The primary change for a multiple TPT is in the switching manifold. Technical manuals for
specific areas are to be referred to for this information.
SECTION V - SYSTEM HYDRAUUCS
2-7 General
The TPT hoseline, pipe, valve, and fitting system are designed to operate at pressures not exceeding 150 psig. This
maximum pressure exists only at the inlet to the TPT or at the discharge of the hoseline pumps under flowing conditions
due to elevation differences and line pressure drop (friction loss). Operating conditions may vary from site to site due to
the terrain, the specific service of the TPT, or the available feed pressure to the TPT. These peculiar conditions may
cause the installation and operating authority, or the specific site designer, to deviate from the typical or standard
conditions described in this manual. There may be substantial differences in elevation between the switching manifold
and the tank farm modules or differences in elevation between one tank module and another. Hoseline lengths may
have to be shorter or longer than described herein. It may be necessary to extend the length of the switching manifold or
