Alpha Forestry Bush/Backpack

The Scotty Alpha backpack is designed to be a simple, portable reservoir for water and/or foam concentrate (Class A or Class B). It provides the wearer with a safe and comfortable way to carry liquids used during fire operations. If using the foam hand pump, 1% of foam concentrate is educted into the pump chamber. The air aspirating nozzle generates foam when the pump is discharged. The Alpha comes with a comfortable shoulder harness system. It uses high strength nylon webbing for the fully adjustable shoulder, sternum and waist straps. The pump has a brass pump chamber protected by an engineering grade polymer sleeve. No tools are required to disassemble the unit, it can be completely disassembled by hand for in the field maintenance. The high-visibility yellow colour allows the Scotty Backpack to stand out through smoke and foliage.
