Recent Deliveries - Tyne Valley, PE - Metalfab Walk In Rescue

On March 09, 2013, the Tyne Valley, PE Fire Department received their new Metalfab Walk In Rescue Unit.  The rescue was tested and certified by ULC to meet ULC Standard - ULC-S515-04 for a SSV (Special Services Vehicle).  This unit is the department's second Metalfab unit.

The 18'-00" walk In Rescue body was mounted on a 2013 International 4400 Chassis.  The chassis was equipped with a 300 HP Maxxforce DT Diesel Engine.  There was a sealed pass through installed between the chassis cab and the Walk In Body to allow for communication between the people seated in the cab and the people seated in the body.




A receiver was installed under the front bumper.  This receiver could be used for mounting a
removable winch or placing tow rings for tie off points, amongst other possible usages.

The rescue unit was equipped with a Federal LED Warning Light System, 12V scene lights, 110V telescopic flood lights, 110V Tripod Flood Lights, and other lighting options.  There was also a 7kw Raven PTO Driven Generator installed on the unit.

The 18'-00" Walk In Body included low side exterior compartments, rear and right side access doors, four interior SCBA seats , an interior flip down command table, and interior storage for 32 sets of bunker gear.  There was also a four bottle cascade system installed in the rear left exterior compartment.

Metalfab would like to thank the Tyne Valley Fire Department for this purchase.
