Universal firefighting system
Its transportability and high quality make this product the most frequently used equipment of this kind. Its reasonable size, moderate price, longevity, excellent performance and maintainability are the advantages which distinguish the product from its competitors.
The empty weight of the UPM-300 system is 246 kg. The system has special handles for four people to carry it to short distances and load on a vehicle.
Water may be supplied from a natural water source or from its built-in tank. Water saving is attained by way of using the Ermak high-pressure firefighting unit which the most appropriate equipment for firefighting when water is poorly accessible. Owing to its tank capacity of 300 litres, it can operate for 30 minutes without interruptions.
Specific features
It is supplied complete with the following equipment:
- Ermak high-pressure firefighting unit
- Sprut-3 power-driven water pump with 3 vents for delivery hoses
- Angara blower for fire suppression with water mist
- Ermak RP-18 backpack forest fire extinguisher, the best backpack forest fire extinguisher
- A3-4 fire gun for setting backfire or counter fire from fire breaks (control lines)
- Mixing tube with a retardant cartridge to enhance fire suppression capacity of water and to save water
- 300-litre water tank made of stainless steel
- Fire hoses with nozzles, Ø=51 mm (40 m long), Ø25=mm (80 m long)
When mounted on a cross-country vehicle, this UPM-300 universal firefighting system becomes a fully operational machine for forest fire patrolling and fighting. There is a partitioned container attached to the frame for spare parts, hoses, nozzles and other tools. The system also has special cans to store and transport fuels and lubricants.
The use of energy-saving technology, prefabricated groups and affordable materials has enabled to lower the price of the UPM-300 universal firefighting system. Such equipment may be used for containing, fighting and preventing any ground fire outbreaks.
The transportation case for the system is made of PVC-based Vinyplan which a fire-resistant, water-proof durable synthetic material.
Each constituent device of the system is a self-sufficient tool for firefighting. Integration of all of them into this system enables one fire team to fight fire much faster.
