Mounting the WHASP Tank
The WHASP Tank uses a “puller” fan to cool the air/oil mixture. Position the WHASP
Tank to ensure there is adequate air flow and so that the fan is blowing out
toward the cargo door. During operation, the door should be kept open to ensure
there is a constant supply of cool air to prevent the system from overheating
