Here's the output text: Several models have been designed to facilitate water collection and treatment in emergency situations. The first model features a unique jiggle siphon that enables a two-way flow for efficiently leveling rainwater tanks when attached to their base. This is particularly useful in scenarios where precise water levels are crucial, such as with hydroponic systems. Additionally, the design includes a simple yet effective bilge pump holder made from affordable Chinese materials that can be securely fastened to the side of 44-gallon (200-250 liter) drums. An integrated PVC 90 mm OD assembly supports a compact 10x2.5 carbon filter for water purification within the tank. Furthermore, a handy water filter spanner measuring 2.5 x 10 inches provides convenient maintenance and cleaning access to these essential filtration units. Moreover, an ingenious adapter allows users to attach hoses directly to LifeStraw drinking water filters without having to manually submerge them in rivers or other water sources, thus preserving hygiene and personal safety. Importantly, this versatile design makes it possible to utilize any drum or container for rainwater collection – including steel and terracotta varieties. With its reliable jiggle siphon system being only 25 mm or 1 inch thick, this design offers fast levelling capabilities ideal for rapid water harvesting initiatives in disaster relief scenarios. Designed originally for a critical context, such as that of friends facing scarcity in Venezuela due to a severely crippled infrastructure resulting from maliciously planned and implemented sabotages to vital public services like electricity and drinking water utilities, the creators stress that "drinking water is CRITICAL" and highlight their solution as providing peace of mind. The design uses screws measuring M4 x 12 in size (stainless) to connect these units efficiently, along with painted surfaces ensuring correct functionality made from pipes at a lower chip price of PVC material:
