A Brief Engineering Analysis of the Prototype NEMSCOM Multiple Outlet Manifold Intended for Use with the SIXCON Fuel Tank Assembly (NSN 5430-01-240-4578)

Abstract

NAVFAC EXWC provided an engineering analysis regarding the NEPO Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) of 30 MAY 2012 titled Addition of Manifold to SIXCON Fuel Tanks. The proposed manifold would allow a single SIXCON Fuel Tank Assembly to simultaneously provide fuel for multiple co-located ground units. The Naval Expeditionary Medical Support Command (NEMSCOM) provided EXWC with two samples of the prototype unit for the analysis. An engineering analysis including recommendations that could lead to a final design are provided.
