The WXP is a collapsible 3-liter hydration reservoir from the Source brand, which in combination with the Source pouch can be easily attached to a vest or backpack.

The behemoth has been issued to leading armies and special forces around the world. Firefighters and other professionals rely on WXP for irrigation during daily operations.

Construction

BPA-free product. In addition, the surface of the dish is equipped with foil Glass-Like™, which is 2000% smoother and its structure is practically no different from glass. Additional grunge-Guard system prevents biofilm formation, making the system virtually self-cleaning and maintenance-free.

The beaker tube is specially protected and insulated against heat and UV rays so that the water inside the vessel remains cold and free of harmful bacteria.

The reservoir has a large NC filler cap which is leak-proof, low profile and one-handed operation, now with a new filling handle.

Mouthpiece

The reservoir is equipped with push/pull Storm Valve™ mouthpiece with a built-in shut-off mechanism and a "no bite" system that provides a 25% faster water flow compared to traditional bite-type mouthpieces. To ensure cleanliness and hygiene, the mouthpiece of the tank has a a special Dirt Shield™ mouthpiece protector, which prevents dirt and dust from getting inside it.

With the WXP 3L irrigation system you gain access to water in any situation and the comfort of use getting rid of the need to take off your gear each time to refill fluids. This irrigation system is very lightweight and compact which is a great advantage during tactical operations. In addition to its small size, it surprises with its functionality.

The quick-release coupling with automatic sealing used in this model allows you to remove the inner tube and valve without leaking, even when the reservoir is full.
