Actionable Tips:
- Pre-Deployment:
- Inspect tank and pump for leaks or debris before use.
- Check fuel and water levels, and prime the pump if needed.
- Operation:
- Use the lighted panel for safe night or low-visibility operation.
- Deploy the booster hose for rapid knockdown and maneuverability.
- Maintenance:
- Clean and drain the tank after each operation.
- Grease hose reel and check pump seals regularly for reliable use.
Alternative Perspectives:
- Larger Units: If your response area covers vast wildland or industrial settings, consider upgrading to a larger tank or additional hose length.
- CAFS Upgrade: For departments tackling complex, high-intensity fires, the CAFS system can provide unbeatable suppression and efficiency, though it requires additional operator training.
Setup and Operation Guide for the Wildland CET Attack Pac Bush Buggy Package 🚒
Preparation:
- Inspect the Unit:
- Check the water and fuel tanks to ensure they are filled and free of contaminants.
- Inspect hoses, connections, and the pump for any signs of wear or damage.
- Review Safety Protocols:
- Ensure all operators wear appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment).
- Familiarize yourself with the control panel, including emergency shut-off procedures.
Setup:
- Position the Skid Unit:
- Secure the skid unit onto a stable truck bed or trailer using outriggers or tiedowns.
- Ensure accessibility for refueling, maintenance, and operator access.
- Connect Hoses:
- Attach the booster hose to the appropriate discharge outlet.
- Secure any additional hoses needed for your specific operation, using the manifold outlets.
- Prepare the Foam System (if equipped):
- Confirm foam concentrate levels in the foam cell.
- Set the foam proportioning system to the desired concentration for the incident.
Operation:
- Start the Engine:
- Turn on the fuel valve, engage the choke if necessary, and start the engine using the starter.
- Allow the engine to warm up before engaging the pump.
- Engage the Pump:
- Gradually open the tank-to-pump valve while monitoring the pressure gauge.
- Adjust the throttle to maintain desired pressure and flow rate.
- Deploy Hose and Apply Water/Foam:
- Use the electric rewind hose reel to deploy the booster hose.
- Utilize the discharge gun, selecting the appropriate spray pattern (fog, jet, atomized) for the situation.
Post-Operation:
- Shutdown:
- Close the discharge valve and throttle back the engine.
- Turn off the engine and secure the fuel valve.
- Maintenance:
- Drain remaining water from the tank and hoses to prevent freezing or contamination.
- Clean the unit, focusing on the pump, hoses, and foam system components if used.
- Check and refill fluids as needed for the next operation.
Comparison with Foam-Based Bush Buggy Packages:
Foam-Based Bush Buggy Features:
- Foam Efficiency: Foam systems offer faster fire suppression and create effective fire breaks, reducing the amount of water needed.
- Versatility: Foam can be used for both structural and wildland fires, enhancing your response capability.
- Resource Management: Foam allows for extended operations with limited water resources.
CET Attack Pac Features:
- Water-Only Efficiency: Suitable for areas with abundant water supplies, offering a straightforward approach to firefighting.
- High Pressure Pumping: Provides strong suppression power, ideal for quickly controlling fires in wildland and urban interface areas.
- Modular Design: Easy integration onto a variety of vehicles, allowing for flexible deployment.
Considerations:
- Departments in water-scarce regions or with complex fire scenarios may benefit more from foam-based systems.
- The CET Attack Pac offers simplicity and high pressure, which can be advantageous for quick knockdowns and initial attacks.
