ECUs/FDECUs: Power Play Turn-in ECUs/FDECUs

Units, heed this call!

36K Environmental Control Units (ECUs) and 66K Field Deployable Environmental Control Units (FDECUs) are urgently needed to fill shortages!

Routine fielding requirements, disassembly and units sending degraded assets directly to DLA Disposition Services have resulted in a huge reduction in inventory. The vast majority of assets are unserviceable field returns that were exposed to the elements.

As a result, CECOM needs supply stock for 36K legacy assets, and requests turn-ins of unit excess on-hand equipment of NSNs 4120-01-219-8759 and 4120-01-467-2638 specifically. The 66K FDECU is needed for its chemical, nuclear, biological, radiological and explosives (CBRNE)-hardened capability.

The FDECU is also a mission-critical component of CBRNE Deployable Medical Systems or CP DEPMEDS, which is NMC without them.

More than 900 FDECUs are needed just to meet the current mission. Until the FDECU replacement is fielded, NSN 4120-01-449-0459, LIN A26852, should be turned in to Tobyhanna Army Depot (TYAD).

TYAD is the depot for repair, test and inspection of ECUs/FDECUs. TYAD also disassembles ECUs to harvest components to maintain readiness above 90 percent.
 
These ECUs/FDECUs will be removed from the master divestiture list, and should be turned in:
Nomenclature/Description NSN 4120- LIN
Air Cond 66000 BTU, FDECU 66K 01-449-0459 A26852

Air Cond 36000 BTUH, ECU 36K 01-467-2638 A24763
