RP3 pump configuration
In recent years, fire engines with rear-mounted fire pumps have seen a resurgence in popularity with fire departments. Almost half of our customers choose this configuration rather than the mid-mount pump, located on the side of the vehicle.
RP3™ pumpers are short-wheelbase vehicles, multifunctional, safer for the pump operator, and with better storage capacity.
- 168″ vehicle wheelbase
- 180-degree visibility for the operator
- Increased operational security
- Large storage capacity
