We are seeking a supplier of 2 each 200 gallon bowers, and 1 each 400 gallon and 1 each 600 gallon bowers. This is a fuel-safe container used to drain aircraft fuel into prior to purging fuel cells/tanks of fuel vapors. It must contain a fully baffled pressure tested tank made from 4MM steel. The Fuel Bowser will consist of a tank assembly mounted on a four wheeled trailer chassis with the tow bar steerable front wheels and drum brake equipped rear wheels. The tank assembly also includes a telescoping funnel assembly, a vacuum pump assembly, and a manway for the cleaning process. Two static discharge ground reels are attached to the trailer and two grounding receptacles are provided, one on each side of the trailer. The fuel bowser also is equipped with a remote funnel assembly, a vacuum pick-up hose assembly and a sampling device. The common elements of all three trailers includes operating temperature range of -40F to +125F, Vacuum Pump Capacity of 16 inches Hg (suction inlet blocked), Vaccum flow 120 SCFM (w/no restiction), and a vaccum chamber of 25 gallons. The unit must have a telescoping funnel with a maximum height of 16 feet, and a Vacuum Hose Assembly of 50 feet, and an ID of 1.25 inches.
