The Mobile Drum Vent System (mDVS) performs the following tasks:
  • Safely install WIPP-certified filters in Transuranic (TRU) waste drums.
  • The mDVS measures the hydrogen connection in each drum.
Value added features of the mDVS include:
  • Ruged design that is simple to operate. Features allow field personnel to efficiently operate the system with a minimum of training.
  • Same proven DVS "Cold Drilling" process to insert standard WIPP-approved Filters.
  • Housed in a trailer for mobility, operator comfort, and protection from environment.
  • Manual versus automated components are utilized to enhance reliability and simplicity of operations.
  • Specifically designed for NucFil-007 series filters that are designed to allow hydrogen and other flammable gases to leave the drum while safely containing radioactive materials.
