Quick Overview

This collapsible water carrier is designed for high-capacity, portable water storage in situations where space is limited, such as in an emergency vehicle kit or backpack. Its primary function is to transport and dispense known potable water at a basecamp, disaster site, or remote location.

Field Application Steps

  1. Inspect the carrier for damage and ensure the spigot is closed.
  2. Expand and fill with a known potable water source, leaving a small air gap, then secure the cap.
  3. Transport using the integrated handle, lifting properly and protecting the carrier from punctures.
  4. Place on an elevated, stable surface to dispense water via the spigot.
  5. After use, thoroughly clean, sanitize, and completely air dry before collapsing for storage.
