Results for “8 Ton Firefighting Trucks”

8 ton firefighting trucks — a fire appliance on an 8 tonne chassis carrying water, a pump, hose and equipment, sized for municipal, industrial site and airport standby duty.

Water capacity is the figure that governs how a first-attack appliance performs, since once the tank is empty the crew depends on a hydrant or a relay, and on an industrial site or a rural road there may not be one. Pump output and foam capability should be matched to the risk being protected, as an industrial chemical risk needs foam the way a domestic risk does not. Contact EMC Machines Manufactures with the risk you are protecting for a specification.
