The advantages of this model:
- The water tender AC-8,0-40 has a capacity to deliver seven crew members including the seats in the additional crew cabin to the fire site.
- The crew cabin is heat insulated and equipped with protective mouldings ensuring dust, moist and noise insulation of the cabin.
- The water tank is made of carbon steel with anti-corrosion coating ensuring its lasting expected life.
- A foam tank made of stainless steel has a capacity of 500 liters.
- High-quality materials and anti-corrosion coating ensure reliability, rigidity and wear resistance of the tanks for fire-extinguishing agents.
- The fire superstructure is modular; it is manufactured based on a patented technology UNIMOD.
- This technology ensures the vehicle high maintainability and ergonomics as well as easy exploitation and repair.
- Capacious compartments for firefighting equipment are featured with a reinforced structure.
- The firefighting equipment compartments are equipped with flap doors that ensure the firefighting equipment and emergency rescue tool safety during the transportation.
- A centrifugal fire pump NCPN-40/100 is mounted in the rear compartment of the fire superstructure.
- It has a capacity of up to 40 liters per second.
- The firefighting equipment is secured reliably in the compartments according to a Multimount system with special mounts based on polyurethane elastomers.
- There is a special single-module system for compact arrangement and reliable fixation of suction hose cases on the top of the fire superstructure.
- It ensures ergonomic arrangement, usage and mounting of the upper firefighting equipment.
- The fire superstructure modules are fixed flexibly and reliably to the chassis due to a spring-damper mechanism.
- Such a technology decreases the bodywork superstructure stress caused by the chassis deformity during the vehicle movement.
