FEATURES
- Four (4) section, telescoping aluminum constructed of high strength
6061-T6 extrusions
- Aerial device mounted over the rear axle, on a torque box sub-weldment
with rear stabilizers with the ability to short-jack
- Bolt-on egress with full 750 lb. rating
LADDER ASSEMBLY
- Ladder sections are trussed vertically and diagonally with 6061-T6
aluminum extrusions
- Environmentally sealed ladder sections to protect against corrosion
- All ladder rungs are round and welded to each section in two places
with K-bracing for rigidity
- Ladder sections are designed with adequate hand spacing and room for
vertically mounted cable tracking, resulting in unobstructed egress on
ladder
- Rungs are extruded and feature aggressive grooves incorporated into
the aluminum material to increase traction during egress
- Extension and retraction motion by a dual hydraulic powered
cylinders and cable pulley system
- Rotation motion through a 54" swing bearing/spur gear, driven by two
planetary hydraulic motors
- Elevation motion through double acting, lift cylinders (8 degrees
below horizontal to 76 degrees above)
- All cylinders designed with integral holding valve cartridges in the
event of a hydraulic line failure
- Rotational brake applies when pressure control is released
TURNTABLE DECK- 56" wide x 49" long turntable is constructed of
with a steel support framework covered with Morton Cass aluminum
surface, with an aluminum treadplate perimeter
- Access to the turntable is from rear side of body
- Stairs are lit by lights activated by the aerial master switch
- Includes control console and space for hydraulic and electrical
components
AERIAL DEVICE POWER- One turntable control station located
on driver side
- Additional aerial controls available at aerial tip and pump
panel
- Aerial controls are electronic over hydraulic, fully multiplexed
and proportionate
- All aerial device controls have fail-safe manual hydraulic
overrides
- Hydraulic load sensing piston pump, capable of multiple-function
operation without speed loss
- High pressure hydraulic manifold block, with test ports
- Pressure and relief filtration system
- Hydraulic reservoir of 51 gallons
- Relief valve set at 3,150 psi to protect hydraulic system
components
- 12V emergency power unit (EPU) with 30-minute run time, capable of
stowing the ladder in the event of a power loss
- High idle is controlled by the microprocessor to automatically
adjust engine rpm to load condition
CONTROL STATIONS
- Lower control station, at rear in ladder storage compartment,
centrally located
- Turntable control station
AERIAL WATERWAY
- Water swivel 5 inch capable of 360 degree rotation
- Telescoping anodized aluminum waterway capable of 1,500 gpm
- 5" dia. base waterway pipe
- 5" swivel capable of operating between -5 degrees and up to 75
degrees
- A 250 psi pressure relief valve located below the torque box
- Aerial monitor (electric), capable of 1,500 gpm, Akron self-stowing
monitor (standard)
- Water flow monitored by the aerial microprocessor
- 5" rear inlet to the aerial waterway
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Electrical swivel capable of 360 degrees with 36 collector
rings, each capable of 20 amps
- 110V electrical system, two 20 amp NEMA L5-20, 3-prong water proof
receptacles (optional)
- Four (4) 12V unity lights standard, two at tip, two at base
PUMP AND PUMPHOUSES
- A midship pumphouse, centered in the frame, ahead of body
- Valves-Akron standard (Elkhart optional)
- Pump pressure governor standard (option for a discharge relief valve
or TPM)
- Removable pump panels provide access to the pump for maintenance
AERIAL BODY
- Compartmentation fabricated from .125" 5052 aluminum with a
tensile strength of 38,000 psi
- Side compartments integral assembly with the rear fender
- Neoprene elastomer isolators will isolate chassis movement from
the body structure
- Bodies are formed and welded construction for durable, long
lasting design without the unnecessary weight
- Exclusive Pierce underslung steel body supports featuring
3-point isolated mount system. This reduces torsional stress and
road shock from being transmitted into the body. The underslung
design prevents compartment floors from sagging after years of use.
- Aluminum extruded rub rails, bolted on for easy repair
- Stainless steel, high-strength aluminum
- Interior of all compartments are painted with multispec to hide
dirt, abrasions, and protect from oil, gas, and hydraulic spills.
- Automotive-style hinged doors constructed with double pan,
double seals, enclosed latches, and .25" hinge pins
- Roll-up doors with lifetime warranty (available in satin or painted
finish)
- Handrails are Pierce's exclusive "cross knurled" design to
reduce hand slippage
