Its combination of a lightweight 15kg chassis and a high maximum lift of 165m allows firefighters to transport water efficiently up steep inclines where traditional trucks cannot reach.
Yes, it is designed for versatility. It can be used in tandem for long-distance water transport or in parallel to increase the total water volume for slip-on units.
Sealed bearings eliminate the need for manual greasing in the field, which reduces maintenance downtime and prevents contaminants from entering the pump mechanism.
The pump offers dual starting options: a traditional hand-line start for reliability in any condition, and an electric start for faster deployment.
We use high-grade aluminum alloy for pump components and apply an anodized finish to protect the hardware from corrosion and wear in harsh forest environments.
The TBQ8/3 is capable of a maximum range of 25 meters, providing firefighters with a safe and effective distance from the fire line.
