Recent Deliveries - Caribou, NS

The Caribou District Fire Department in Caribou, NS, took delivery of their new Metalfab Pumper on April 19, 2013.  This unit is the fourth Metalfab Apparatus purchased by the department.



The Top Mount Pumper Body is mounted on an International 4400 four door chassis.  The chassis has a 330 HP engine and a Allison automatic transmission.


The pump on this truck is a Waterous CSU 120 IGPM Midship Pump.  The foam system is a FoamPro 2002 dual foam tank system with electric pump pick ups for foam for each foam tank.  The poly water tank has a capacity of 800 Imp. Gallons of water and two foam cells with a capacity of 20 Imp. Gallons each.  The truck features two 1-3/4" speedlays located beneath the walk way for the top mount panel.  This allows for ease of access and ease of reloading the hose beds.

The body is an extruded aluminum body with intermediate height compartments on each side of the unit.  A combination of roll up and flush mount doors were used on this unit.  The truck has manual drop down racks for both the ladders and the portable truck.



Metalfab LTD would like to thank the Caribou District Fire Department for choosing Metalfab to manufacture this pumper.
