Water Purification Systems for Emergency Management

Rapid Emergency Response

The Mobile Trailer System (MTS) from First Water is an efficient method to transport your water filtration system to any site or facility experiencing or anticipating a water emergency. The MTS systems are designed to bring everything needed to clean and distribute water, providing the flexibility to pre-deploy the assets in anticipation of an event, or deploy the assets to multiple locations. Each MTS has been designed to not only efficiently store the equipment it comes with, they also have additional space to provide for other helpful equipment or additional First Water equipment that may be purchased in the future. Each unit provides easy loading and unloading by a center aisle running the length of the trailer, a full ramp in the back of the trailer, and a large side door near the front.

The MTS 1 is designed to support small to mid-size hospitals, correctional facilities and Spike Camps. It can produce up to 10,000 gallons per day with a twelve hour duty cycle via a single Outpost-12™ and three Responder-S’s™. The MTS 2 provides enough equipment for a single large or two smaller hospital or correctional facilities, or a large Base Camp. It can produce up to 21,000 gallons per day with a twelve hour duty cycle via two Outpost-12’s™ and six Responder-S’s™.  The MTS 3 is outfitted to supply the largest amount of water of the three systems, specifically for large Base Camps and Shelters. It can produce up to 28,000 gallons per day with a twelve hour duty cycle via three Outpost-12’s™ and three Responder-S’s™.

These commercial grade vehicles feature many upgrades designed for public health and emergency management deployments, such as:

• large 7′ X 14″ size enabling center aisle to facilitate loading and unloading,
• hooks up to a command vehicle, pickup truck, SUV, etc. with a standard 1.25″ ball,
• a double axel that provides easier towing and an ability to continue operating in case a tire becomes flat,
• water and skid resistant flooring and surfaces,
• ample tie-downs to secure the Outpost-12’s™, generators, Filling Stations™, and any loose items stored on the floor,
• custom aluminum storage racks to store Responders™ and Supply Stations™,
• additional overhead storage for spare filters and hoses,
• tool box with assorted hand tools to enable field repairs of all equipment in the unlikely event that becomes necessary.
