MULVFS components and operational requirements
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
** IN DRY AIR CONDITIONED AREA WITH READY ACCESS TO THE DECK **
   MULVFS electronics         5' wide x 3' bench
    (dry clean, ready access to deck)
 
 We will need ~20 AMPS of 440/480 VAC 3 phase power,
              1-2 KVA 120 VAC single phase uninterruptable power

 We have our own isolation transformer and isoloation monitoring system.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------  
** MAIN DECK **
   totals approximately 250 square feet (23 m^2) of working area.

         o) must have clear visibility of deployment area from bridge
 
12 MULVFS PUMPS ( EACH 18" DIAMETER ) (100 SQ FEET (9 m2) DURING USE)
                                      ( 80 SQ feet (7 m2) 
                                        - during storage
                                        - out of the weather)
         o) FRESH WATER RINSING prior to and after deployment
         o) estimated fresh water usage ~ 20-40 gal (80-160 L)
            2 times per station.
 
ALUMINUM BLOCK (24" {0.61 m} diameter )  
   hung from A frame
         o) wire leads directly from winch through level wind to sheave.
         o) prefer not to have to hang and remove once a station.
 
         sheave dimensions:
         top of hanger to bottom of wire groove is 31"
         total vertical length 65"
         axle side-to-side clearence = 18"
         wheel cover diameter = 37" 
         wheel greatest diameter = 34"
         wheel groove diameter = 24"

MULVFS WINCH     (6.7 m^2 footprint) 
   main deck     9'4" (2.85 m) axial clearence
                 7'8" (2.34 m) width clearence
                 7'   (2,14 m) height
                 weight with wire ~   5050 lbs (2272 kg) 
                 line hauling tension 2000 lbs ( 909 kg) pull.

         o) LOCATION MUST ALLOW CLEAR VIEW of Deployment area
         o) must face directly at BLOCK (no fairleads)
         o) needs ship's air for brake (little used)
         o) uses deck bolt down plates
 
MULVFS LEVEL WIND (WINDSHIELD WIPER ACTION) (3 m^2 footprint)
   main deck weight: ~1000 lbs
         o) requires 4' x 8' x 3' (1.22 x 2.44 x 0.92 m) area in 
            front of winch.
         o) uses deck bolt down plates
 
MULVFS WINCH CONTROL STATION
         o) pedestal mounted 2'x2' pattern (0.68 x0.68 m) base

MULVFS POWER PACK (30 HP 440/480 VAC  3 PHASE POWER - 36 AMPS)
   main deck (1.5 m^2)
                 4'2" (1.27 m) axial clearence
                 3'8" (1.12 m) wide
                 6'8" (2.04 m) height clearence
         o) contiguous to winch
         o) weight with oil ~ 1200 lbs (545 kg)
         o) mates to 4' deck bolt pattern
 
AIR      o) We use 100 psi air for air wrenches used to attach and 
            detatch pumps from the electro mechanical cable.
