Pumpers

Our latest product is our line of pumpers.  The unit pictured here was sold to the Biscoe Fire Department of Arkansas.  It features a 1250 GPM Hale pump, 1000 gallon rectangular polypropylene tank, side control panel, rescue style compartments, roll-up doors, booster reel, and more.  All for a price that is lower than the limited option "program pumpers" that the big boys build and without the limited options.  Now you can get exactly what you want for a price that can't be beat.

When you take delivery of your new Reliable Fire Products pumper, here is what you will find:

  Your body will be fabricated from 5052-H32 aluminum sheet for minimum weight and maximum strength.

ROM brand roll-up doors will make it easier for your personnel to access equipment when the apparatus is in tight spots.  No swing-out doors in their way or lift-up doors they can smack their head on.

Liberal use of strobe lights and LEDs for the visual warning system will help cut down on the amount of power the electrical system draws.  This will result in less headaches since the system will not be operating a maximum power continuously.

Your compartment interior surfaces will be coated with pickup bed liner material.  It will take years of punishment and keep the interior of the body looking good and protected from water, dirt and debris.  The light color will also enhance the effectiveness of the compartment lights.

After delivery you find the need for an additional shelf.  It won't be a problem because we install the Uni-Strut tracks for shelving in all primary compartments.  Three are installed in every major body compartment.  This customer did not order any shelves but if he finds the need for some, he can order them and bolt them right in.

Since your unit will be equipped with a rectangular tank, the primary compartments will be a full 24" deep from top to bottom.

 

 
  The right side compartments on the truck shown are 3/4 height to maintain a good sized door opening with the roll-up doors.  We have taken advantage of the extra space above the wheel well to provide storage for up to eight air pack cylinders.  The drop-down style door ensures the cylinders will not bang against the side of the apparatus.

You may want to go to taller compartments but we wouldn't recommend anything shorter. 

Polished aluminum fenderettes are a standard feature that will help keep your apparatus looking good for years.

If you ordered a hose reel your members will like our standard location in the center rear compartment.  They won't have to climb on the truck for any reason to use it, even if they over rewind the hose.  Keeping them on the ground helps prevent injuries. 

They will also appreciate intermediate step which provides a safe platform for hose loading.

 
  We will install the Hale, Waterous, or W.S. Darley pump of your choice so you can standardize with existing equipment.

This pump panel is for a Hale, QMID pump.  Due to varying configurations between the pump manufacturers, the layout of your pump panel might be somewhat different than the one pictured here.

Features that will remain the same are:
    Non-Glare Black vinyl surface,
    Color coded labels,
    Liquid filled Span gauges,
    Quarter turn drain valves,
    Hinged access panel,
    Master pump drain.

Other features on the panel are pretty much your choice.   
 

     

Closer examination as well as your visit to the factory will also reveal more features and benefits than can be pictured here.  Things like:

  • Welds performed by Certified welders,
  • PPG 7 year paint warranty,
  • Solid stepping surfaces,
  • Solid body construction,
  • Separate pump and body modules,
  • Maximum storage capacity with little wasted space,
  • Body engineered around chassis rather than one size fits all,
  • Stainless steel nuts, bolts and fasteners throughout,
  • Packard Weather-Pak and Metri-Pak connectors,
  • GXL wiring run in high temperature convoluted loom,
  • Heavy duty SAE type 1, automatic reset circuit breakers,
  • LED clearance and marker lights,
  • Structural steel body subframe, sandblasted and finish painted,
  • SpeedLiner pickup bed liner in compartment interiors,
  • And much, much more.
