Re: 1 Clippard Tank ???

I've looked farther into it, in section 5.3.10 the word "Tanks" is used numerous times, in <R02> (already mentioned) as well as

<R86> "store compressed air in the storage tanks"

<R87> "Clippard Instruments air storage tanks provided in the Kit"

<R88> "the Clippard tanks"

As well as the example diagram shows 2 tanks pictured.

Also, in the Guidlines, tips & good practices file of section 5 under 1.4.1 it says "Clippard Tanks - Two tanks are provided. The tanks store and provide a steady volume of 120psi compressed air to downstream regulators and actuators."

When i went to ask in the TIMS system someone else had already asked, so we'll just half to wait for an answer. I expect this will be something mentioned in the first FIRST update.

My guess is that we were supposed to recieve 2 tanks, but in the process of typing up the KOP list that was used to fill each kit (as well as released to us for reference) there was a typo on the tank quanity and only one was put in each kit
