The CAS 30/6000/390 - S 2 Z(R) - T815-PR2 6x6.1 Water Tender was created by reconstruction and modernization of the original model CAS 32 - T815-PR2 6x6.1.
The Water Tender is designed to carry a fire brigade crew (1+5), equipment and extinguishing media to extinguish fires of highly flammable substances by application of water or foam using the low or high water pressure, even in areas where water is lacking. The vehicle can be used by ordinary fire & rescue brigades, in chemical plants, refineries, mines, warehouses of flammable substances or at airports and in areas with a high risk of fire hazard.

CHASSIS |
|
The basis is still the Tatra chassis with swing half-axles and the rear axle stabilizers, new shock absorbers and positioning valves of TATRA pneumatic suspension. It is an all-wheel drive chassis with front axle drive that can be disengaged. The chassis undergoes a complete overhaul, blasting, and gets a new surface finish. The chassis is fitted with a new four-door, electrically tilted cab for six-member crew with extraordinary space in front of the second row of seats. It is also possible to use a short cab. The cab can be equipped with air conditioning system, independent heating, electrically operated heated rear-view mirrors. The engine is resealed, the pump and the injection nozzles are checked and adjusted, and the engine is tested on a test bench. It is also possible to install a new engine TATRA V8. On the gearbox the synchronization is checked, all rubber parts are replaced and after completion with the auxiliary gearbox the functionality test and the tightness test is performed. Optionally, the automated gearbox TATRA-NORGREN can be installed. The chassis can also be equipped with wiring harness and airline harness for trailer. Instead of the tyres Barum 445/65R22.5, supplied as standard, tyres of other brands can also be used, as well as tyres having the size 14.00R20 with new disc wheels. |
SUPERSTRUCTURE |
|
The original fire superstructure is fully replaced with a new modern superstructure made of special aluminium profiles screwed together using prismatic screwed joints and covered with aluminium plates bonded to the frame. The chassis design allows installation of the superstructure without any subframe. Superstructure is divided into three separately installed parts: - front compartment for accessories, - rear compartment for accessories and pumping equipment, - tank for water and foam concentrate. The inside equipment of the front and the rear compartment is made of moulded aluminium plate. The top platform is covered with the same plate bonded to the frame. Sides of the compartments, as well as the lower storage cabinets, are closed with aluminium roller shutters with handles across the whole width of the shutter. Compartments are illuminated with LED strips. On the rear wall of the rear compartment there is a hinged door closing the pumping equipment compartment including the control panel. Ladder allowing the access to the top working platform is also mounted on the rear wall. The ladder has non-slip finish. The tanks for water and foam concentrate make up one unit. The tank is made of stainless plates AISI 316L welded together and provided with protective surface passivation. It is of prismatic shape. On the bottom part of the tank there are welded-on brackets by which the tank is bolted to the chassis frame. Both tanks are equipped with a device for remote control of liquid volume, complete with external indication on sides. Fire pump according to ČSN EN 1028-1 is installed in the rear compartment. It consists of a low-pressure stage and a high-pressure stage. Roof monitor is removable. It is connected to the delivery piping using a quick-acting adapter. Monitor movement in horizontal plane is 360°. Monitor inclination is limited by the purpose-built vehicle body. Monitor is fitted with nozzle which allows the stream to be adjusted from straight jet to fog pattern in 100° angle. |
