Too hot for PM?

PS: The Preventive Maintenance Monthly, July, 2004

Soldiers often have to serve and do maintenance in VERY HOT climates, as the troops in Iraq can testify. It can be torture to try to pull PM on equipment too hot to touch.

The Port-a-Cool portable evaporative cooling system helps cool heat problems in environments like a motor pool or arras room. Port-a-Cools are on wheels and can be easily moved around. They operate on a 220- or 110-volt power source and Use tap water. Port-a-Cools range in size from a 16-in model that cools up to 600 square feet to a 48-in fan model that cools up to 3,500 square feet and in price from $550 to $2,700.

DLA has assigned NSNs to all the models and their accessories. See www.portacoolmilitarysales.com for NSNs and more info.
