Long-distance water truck (mobile fire engine)
We operate as fire brigade to cope with disasters such as fires around Yokohama Station and Minatomirai district. In addition, since it is equipped with an A-1 class pump that has higher pump performance than a normal pump truck, water is taken from the sea and rivers, and in cooperation with a hose extension vehicle, with a large diameter hose (150 mm diameter) It has the power to send up to 4,000 liters of water per minute to a distant disaster site. We also respond to fires that occur in the event of an earthquake where water shortage is expected, or in densely populated wooden areas where a large amount of water is required.

In the event that a fire hydrant becomes unusable, such as in the event of an earthquake, or in a densely populated wooden area where a large amount of water is required, we will cooperate with a long-distance water truck. The hose can be extended and collected while driving, and quick disaster response is possible.In the event of a disaster, a long-distance water truck takes water from water sources such as the sea and rivers, and a large diameter hose onboard the hose extension vehicle (150 mm diameter, 1,800 meters long), it is possible to send water required for fire extinguishing to a distance.
