FEATURES
- Three (3) section, telescoping aluminum constructed of high
strength steel, certified to 70,000 psi
- 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 250 lb. rating
- Modular construction allows for easy component replacement if damage
were to occur
LADDER ASSEMBLY
- Ladder sections are trussed vertically and diagonally with round
steel tubing
- 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
- Fold down steps standard at tip
- Rungs are sheathed with an aggressive composite luminescent rung
covers to increase visibility during egress and do not need electrical
connections or amp draw
- Extension and retraction motion by a dual hydraulic powered
cylinders and cable pulley system
- Rotation motion through a 46" swing bearing/spur gear, driven by one
planetary hydraulic motor
- Elevation motion through double acting, lift cylinders (5 degrees
below horizontal to 80 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- 73" long x 96" wide 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 body stair wells, one on each
side of the truck
- Stairs are lit by two 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
- Aerial controls are direct hydraulic, fully proportionate
- 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 38 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
CONTROL STATIONS
- Lower control station, at rear in ladder storage compartment,
centrally located
- Turntable control station
- Additional aerial controls available at aerial tip and pump
panel
AERIAL WATERWAY
- Water swivel 4-inch capable of 360 degree rotation
- Telescoping anodized aluminum waterway capable of 1,000 gpm
- 4" dia. base waterway pipe
- 4" swivel capable of operating between -5 degrees and up to 80
degrees
- A 250 psi pressure relief valve located below the torque box
- Aerial monitor (electric), capable of 1,000 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 28 collector
rings, each capable of 20 amps
- 110V electrical system, one 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)
AERIAL BODY
- Compartmentation fabricated from .125" 5052 aluminum, Galvaneal
steel, or stainless steel
- 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
- Galvaneal steel, 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
