Dongfeng 4x2 7,000 L Fire Sprinkler Truck with 60 m Monitor

This Dongfeng 4x2 fire and water sprinkler truck is a dual-purpose vehicle for towns, municipal fleets and industrial sites that want one truck for daily road watering and first-response firefighting. Its anti-corrosion steel tank holds about 7,000 L (7 m³) of water and feeds both the spray system and the firefighting equipment.

The two-axle chassis has a 3,800 mm wheelbase and measures 7,350 × 2,350 × 2,700 mm, with an 11,995 kg gross vehicle weight, a 5,130 kg curb weight and axle loads of 4,350 kg front and 7,645 kg rear. A 110 kW (149 hp) diesel engine drives through a manual gearbox, the truck rides on six 8.25R20 tires and top speed is 103 km/h. The cab seats three. Firefighting equipment is built around a CB10/30 fire pump and a PS8/30 roof monitor with a reach of at least 60 m, and a rear compartment gives access to the pump.

Typical duties include street and square washing, dust control at construction and industrial sites, greenbelt watering and initial attack on small fires before larger pumpers arrive. With a full tank the truck runs at its rated gross weight, so extra equipment should be kept light. The wheelbase can be adjusted to order, and emission levels from Euro 2 to Euro 6 are available.
