Fire Fighting Truck covers fire appliances on a range of chassis sizes, carrying water, a pump, hose and equipment, for municipal, industrial site and airport standby duty. Water capacity is the figure that governs how a first-attack appliance performs, because once the tank is empty the crew depends on a hydrant or a water relay, and on an industrial site or a rural road there may be neither within reach.
Pump output and foam capability should be matched to the risk being protected rather than specified generically. An industrial chemical or fuel risk needs foam proportioning and a foam tank the way a domestic risk does not, and an airport appliance needs a very different water and foam capacity and acceleration profile from a municipal one. Locker layout, ladders, hose and rescue equipment are specified to the crew's own procedures.
Fire appliances are almost entirely tendered. Municipal and city corporations, fire and emergency services departments, airport and port authorities, oil, gas and petrochemical facilities, industrial estates, defence establishments, and emergency preparedness projects financed by development banks all procure through formal bidding. We quote against the specification and provide itemised technical offers, pump performance curves, chassis and body declarations, equipment inventories, origin and warranty terms, priced spares lists, crew training scope and third-party pre-shipment inspection.
Send us the risk you are protecting, your water and foam requirement and your chassis preference, and we will specify the appliance.
