Product OveRView

The ZZ5357TXFV464MF5 water tank fire truck is a heavy-duty mobile firefighting vehicle designed for rapid response and effective water delivery in fire emergencies. Built by China National Heavy Duty Truck Group, this apparatus combines a powerful engine, robust chassis, high-capacity water tank, advanced pump system, and ergonomically designed equipment compartments, enabling firefighters to operate efficiently under various conditions. The vehicle complies with GB7956 Fire Truck Performance Requirements and Test Methods and National VI emission standards.

1. Chassis & Powertrain

The truck is mounted on the ZZ5357TXFV464MF5 chassis and powered by a MC11.46-61 engine delivering 341 kW. It features rear-wheel drive with a wheelbase of 4600+1400 mm, providing stable handling and load distribution. The vehicle meets GB3847-2005 and GB17691-2018 National VI emission standards.

2. Cab Configuration

The cab is a flat-front, dual-row cabin with four doors, accommodating 6 personnel (2 front, 4 rear). Front seats have protective handrails, and the rear seats are fitted with brackets for rapid deployment of self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), enabling firefighters to prepare during transit and respond immediately on arrival.

The cab is equipped with a hydraulic tilting mechanism for maintenance access. Additional cab features include PTO control switch, 100W siren, and warning light switches, with a long-row red warning light mounted on the cab roof for visibility.

Water Tank

The truck carries 16,000 kg of water in a high-quality steel tank with anti-corrosion treatment.

The tank structure includes internal longitudinal and transverse baffles to reduce water movement impact during transit, and the front and rear panels feature trapezoidal reinforcements for strength and rigidity. A quick-opening manhole on top allows maintenance access. Inside, a swirl-prevention device and mesh filter optimize water flow to the pump.

A stainless steel float-type level indicator provides real-time water levels via the dashboard. The tank also includes:

• 1 bottom drain with stainless steel ball valve

• 1 overflow pipe (76 mm)

• 4 filling inlets (two on each side, 76 mm)

All tanks are welded robustly, cleaned to remove slag and defects, and subjected to 24-hour hydrostatic testing to ensure leak-free operation.

4. Fire Pump & Piping System

The vehicle is equipped with a CB10/60 low-pressure rear-mounted fire pump, providing 60 L/s at 1.0 MPa.

• Vacuum Pump: piston-type, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, achieving max vacuum ≥85 kPa, suction depth ≥7 m, and priming ≤35 s.

• Suction Piping: Φ150 mm inlet draws water from natural sources, tanks, or fire hydrants via roof-mounted piping. One Φ150 mm butterfly valve connects the pump to the tank.

• Discharge Piping:

• Roof-mounted Φ100 mm fire monitor with control valve and flexible connection

• Side outlets: Φ80 mm and Φ65 mm, manually operated ball valves

• Filling & Drainage:

• Pump room Φ65 mm refill line and side tank filling inlets (2 per side) with threaded connections and dust caps

• Drainage piping with ball valves to protect pumps and valves

• Cooling Water Piping: ensures PTO operation under various conditions

5. Fire Monitor / Water Cannon

The vehicle is equipped with a PS8/50 fire monitor, delivering 60 L/s at 1.0 MPa, with a water spray range ≥65 m. The monitor is roof-mounted and manually operated with a locking mechanism for safety.

6. Power Take-Off (PTO)

The truck features a full-power sandwich PTO, cooled by forced water cooling and lubricated via splash oil. PTO is operated from the dashboard for smooth engagement with no abnormal noise, and installation ensures secure attachment without detachment risk.

7. Equipment Compartments & Pump Room

The truck’s body includes a front equipment compartment, central water tank, and rear pump room.

• Materials: carbon steel frame and skin; interior racks made of aluminum alloy with oxidized panels.

• Structure: welded frame ensuring strength and rigidity.

• Doors: lockable aluminum alloy roller shutters, tested for waterproofing.

• Lighting: LED illumination for compartments and pump room.

• Design Principles:

1. Equipment organized according to operational logic and frequency of use

2. Accessible from ground or step within 1–2 movements

3. Ergonomic layout to enable quick and safe operation

Flip-down aluminum alloy steps are equipped with anti-slip panels, spring locks, and comply with GB11567 static load requirements.

8. Electrical System

• Warning System: Red long-row warning lights on the cab roof; 100W siren; strobe and side lighting.

• Safety Lighting: fire scene spotlight, reflective markings per standards, LED lights in all compartments.

• Cabling: protected with conduits, color-coded, waterproof connectors.

• Pump Room Controls: dashboard includes level gauge, tachometer, pressure gauge, vacuum gauge, lighting switches, and all controls clearly labeled.

9. Instrument Panel & Pump Room Equipment

• Control panel located at rear pump room with clear Chinese markings, adequate lighting, and step-by-step operating instructions.

• Panels made of high-quality aluminum for durability and lightweight.

• Rear-mounted pump room ensures operator safety with no pressurized outlet.

10. Technical Compliance

• Vehicle performance meets GB7956 Fire Truck Performance Requirements.

• Exterior finish maintains smoothness; welds and rivets meet enterprise standards.

• All equipment racks, switches, and instruments carry compliant identification plates.
