PIERCE MANUFACTURING INC. recently announced an order for 15 Pierce fire and emergency apparatus from the Clackamas Fire District #1 in Oregon. The purchase includes six Pierce® Dash® CF custom pumpers, two Pierce Arrow XT™ aerial tillers, three Pierce 3,000-gallon tankers, two Pierce Type 3 wildland apparatus, one Pierce Arrow XT heavy-duty rescue, and one Pierce air-light heavy-duty rescue.
The six Pierce Dash CF pumpers each feature a Detroit DD13 470-hp engine, TAK-4® independent front suspension, and PUC pump configuration.
The two Pierce Arrow XT 100-foot aerial tillers are designed to navigate the many narrow roads in the district’s older communities as well as the roundabouts and cul-de-sacs found in many of the newer communities. These apparatus each feature TAK-4 independent suspension, Command Zone advanced electronics, a 300-gallon water tank, a full complement of ground ladders, and blue LED lighting along the entire length of the aerial device.
Other vehicles on order include a Pierce Arrow XT heavy duty rescue with a Detroit DD13 525-hp engine, TAK-4 independent front suspension, and TAK-4 T3 independent suspension on the tandem rear axles for enhanced maneuverability and greater ride comfort. A second heavy duty rescue vehicle is a Pierce non walk-in configuration that will refill SCBA air bottles on scene and also provide rehab for firefighters.
The pair of Pierce Type 3 wildland apparatus are built on Freightliner M2 chassis with 4x4 all-wheel drive, seating for four firefighters, 500-gpm two-stage pumps, and Pierce Husky® 3 single-agent foam systems.
The three Pierce tankers will support firefighting operations throughout the district’s many rural areas. Pierce dealer Hughes Fire Equipment LLC of Springfield, Oregon, provides local service and support.
