Thanks for listing the details of this appliance. What size hose does it have? On a reel? High pressure?

Added by David L on 02 February 2010.
Hose outfit according to manufacturer specification:
4*W75 segment 20 meters (diameter 75mm)
4*W52 segment 20 meters (diameter 52mm)
50 meters of fast attack line on reel, diameter of hose 25mm.

On a reel is fast attack line - 50 meters long with rubber hose and firefighting nozzle with regulation of the stream form seamless (compact) to mist. High pressure aggregat AWP65/40 - 9HP engine. Aggregat efficiency 65 liters on minute 40 bar of pressure.

First off, thanks for all the information, it is almost like being there and looking at the car. I really like European light fire cars.

My last questions are: you have a seperate engine for the 600l/min pump, and another engine for the 65l/min pump? Is the 25mm hose the same hose flowing 65l/min at 40 bar of pressure?

Thanks again!

It's probably error in data. Correct pump (aggregat) data is 65l/min at 40 bar of pressure. The 25mm hose in reel connect to the aggreggat.
