“BOTTOMS-UP” ROLLOVER TRAINING SIMULATOR
Staff instructors utilize WEG's personally designed and customized "Bottoms-Up," four compartment, MC-306 tank trailer for real-life hazardous emergency response training. The "one-of-a-kind" unit is equipped with a self-contained hydraulic system that rotates the trailer into various positions that simulate a tanker "rollover" incident. It can be positioned upright for transport without the assistance of external cranes, winches, or tows. The unit is fully operational and is designed with a number of identical features found on trailers currently used for transport. This course trains participants to recognize and identify the hazards with tank truck rollovers and effective control measures. Through the use of WEG’s “Bottoms-Up” rollover trailer, participants will take part in multiple simulations that will include: initial site assessment, implementing the Incident Command System and response to a tank truck rollover. HAZMAT teams and responders, for practicing a variety of simulated material releases and accidents, primarily use the trailer.
