Allison Helps Australian Capital Firefighters Deal with Forest Fires
In 2003, a forest fire in the Australian capital of Canberra killed four people and burned more than 500 houses. Canberra is located in the open valley of Australia's mountainous region, surrounded by virgin forests and known as 'The Forest Capital'. For the Australian Capital Fire Department, their important duty is to protect this 'forest capital' from the threat of fire. Previously, the fire brigade designated fire engines equipped with manual gearboxes for forest firefighting. They believed that the manual gearbox could better control the vehicle speed when descending on a steep slope. However, with the help of Allison application engineering technicians, the parameters of the vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission have been optimized, and the downhill speed has been more accurately controlled through the transmission. Recently, the Australian Capital Fire Brigade purchased three Hino 500 Series 1322 crew cab fire trucks equipped with Allison transmissions for fireweed fire rescue operations around the capital. John Jenkins, project director of the Australian Capital Emergency Service Center, said: "Most Australian fire brigade fire trucks are equipped with automatic transmissions, but we have recently changed operational measures to deploy full-automatic gearbox vehicles to forest areas for the first time. †The Australian Fire Brigade’s emphasis on employees’ health, safety and vehicle operability prompted them to choose to equip fire engines with Allison automatic transmissions. In addition, a good record of Allison automatic transmissions applied to urban fire engines is also a major factor in their decision making. John Jenkins said: "Our urban fire engines equipped with Allison transmissions are very successful and we are very satisfied. The reliability, safety and operability of Allison Transmission Drive System fully meet our needs." Hino 500 series fire trucks equipped with 4 firefighters and complete fire fighting equipment are equipped with Allison 2500 Series 6-speed automatic transmissions to match the standard 8 litre turbo diesel engine. The car's payload is 13.9 tons and is equipped with a 3,600-liter tank. In addition, independent engines and pumps can be used for fire prevention and relief operations in remote areas. Jenkins said, "We hope that all vehicles will be equipped with automatic transmissions. The new Hino fire truck is equipped with Allison fully automatic transmission, whether it is driving on a flat road or on the off-road, fully demonstrating the automatic transmission relative to the manual transmission. The advantages of the gearbox. In emergency situations, Allison fully automatic gearbox allows the driver to focus on controlling the vehicle, making safer choices and minimizing the risk." “With the development of modern technology, Allison automatic transmission is definitely better than manual transmission. The vehicle we want is the safest, the easiest to handle and the most comfortable, especially in the emergency. We have been from Aili. Johnson's application in urban fire trucks has yielded tremendous benefits, and its use over the years has proven that they meet our requirements for reliability, safety, and handling." Jenkins continued. Speaking of Allison's after-sales service, Jenkins said: "Over the years, Allison has been providing us with important follow-up services and technical advice. This allows our technical staff to keep abreast of the latest product changes and Update while ensuring these devices are still reliable and achieve the best performance."
