“We’ve been continually evolving the capability and functionality of both our Type-3 Wildland and Type-1 Interface designs,” said Ken Lenz,HME Ahrens-Fox副总裁兼工程总监。“HME极端大鼠and the HXR significantly improved the capability of the Type-3 through a custom, wildland design. The development of the Ahrens-Fox WUI incorporates many of the elements we developed for the HXR, such as its high-clearance SFO®, 4×4 chassis, wide float Super Singles tires, and automatic inflation system. The WUI incorporates many of those features while also merging advanced technologies with the functionality and expanded storage capacity of the Type-1 Interface.”
Ahrens-Fox WUI介绍了该公司的申请专利分布式水系统™。分布式水系统™在卡车周围优化了水入口和出口配置，从而消除了浪费的空间。该系统结合了两条保险杠安装的1½英寸线；卡车两侧的一条2½英寸线；双2½英寸后线；以及两个用于结构火灾，卡车保护和整体消防能力的助推器卷轴。188金博网网址多少在卡车的侧面，一个6英寸的蒸笼和2½英寸的进气口有助于继电器泵送，以及2½英寸的后罐填充物。还提供了后I-Zone支架以快速重新部署。
带有泡沫和甲板枪的1,500加时利泵提供了其他结构保护能力。柴油辅助驱动的泵，均以1型和3型设备为特色，可支持泵送操作。所有泵功能均由可配置的玻璃屏幕技术™控制，可以在卡车外或从驾驶室内部操作。还提供可选的Ahrens-Fox MadDog XL压缩空气泡沫系统，分别提供了三个评级，最多可达200 cfm。
分布式水系统™及其紧凑的触摸屏控制所产生的空间节省可以节省内部存储空间。额外的隔室为快速干预团队工具，限制空间和高角度救援设备以及许多传统的1型接口齿轮提供了空间。其他设备和工具，包括硬油管，长期处理的工具以及最多26英尺的梯子，都可以从发动机的后部轻松访问。屋顶顶部隔间的坚硬盖将燃烧的余烬从软管和装有船员的个人装备的隔间中燃烧出来。这些顶部隔间和甲板枪都可以通过后出口梯子轻松安全地进入。一种耐腐蚀，不锈钢界面式车身，具有模块化的飞机质量结构，可高效和经济修复。滚动门可立即使用设备和齿轮。
96英寸宽的干净，平坦的屋顶线Ahrens-FoxWUI cab, protect truck and equipment from overhanging obstacles. The cab roof is free from air-conditioning evaporator obstructions, and the deck gun has also been lowered for improved clearance. Booster reels, on each side of the truck, are also integrated just below the roof line. These features work to lower the effective overall height of the apparatus and compensate for the increased height of the all-wheel-driven engine.
The AF-WUI features the company’s proven 4×4 SFO™ custom chassis with an MFD-XL cab to enhance comfort for traveling firefighters. The SFO® chassis, featured on the HME Model 18 Type-1 Interface and HXR™, delivers a tight-turn radius for responsive handling over rugged and twisting terrain. With an overall length 15” shorter than a Model 18 Type-1, and precisely balanced weight-distribution when fully loaded, The AF-WUI has been designed to offer exceptional handling and agility both on and off-road. In addition, Super Single tires, or optional conventional dual rear tire configurations, are capable of providing superior off-road stability and traction. An optional Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS) is also available for improved traction control. The extreme off-road front bumper features a cooling system skid plate as standard equipment, ground sweep nozzles and underside fire lagging to allow operation in Black or Red Zones.
A Rigid Industries off-road lightbar, on the front bumper, with Active View Technology, cuts through the night and dense smoke. It automatically employs eight beam patterns, from wide angle to spot lighting, based on vehicle speed. Whelen V-Series™, Combination 180° Warning and Perimeter Lights, provide operational lighting around the vehicle. Cab steps, cab and compartment LED lighting offer selective red or white lighting.
Lenz指出：“我们将荒野的坚固性与界面的能力和功能融合在一起，并增加了先进的技术和创新，使这辆卡车在Wildland和界面有效性方面提升到了新的水平。”“ Ahrens-Fox WUI注定要将标准设置为当今单一用途类型1和3型引擎的替代组合引擎。”
