The HOWO Sinotruk Full Driver 4x4 Fire Fighting Truck is a specialized vehicle built on the robust Sinotruk HOWO chassis, designed for all-wheel-drive performance in various terrains and emergency situations.

While exact specifications can vary significantly depending on the specific model, configuration (water-only, water/foam, water/foam/dry powder), and the manufacturer that builds the fire fighting body (superstructure), here are the general production details and features:

• Chassis Manufacturer: SINOTRUK (China National Heavy Duty Truck Group Co., Ltd.)
• Driving Type: 4x4 All-Wheel Drive (essential for off-road or difficult terrain access).
• Cab Type: Typically a double-row cab (Full Driver/Crew Cab) designed to carry the fire crew. It usually accommodates 2 (driver + passenger) + 4 (rear crew) personnel.
• Engine: Diesel engine, often using technology such as the MAN D2676LF08 or WD615 series (depending on emission standards like Euro II/III/IV/V).
• Transmission: Usually a manual gearbox, with a Power Take-Off (PTO) to run the fire pump.
• Performance: Designed for good off-road capability with features like a respectable approach/departure angle.

The superstructure is built around a main frame structure, often welded using high-quality square pipe or aluminum alloy profiles.

1. Tank (Liquid Carrying Capacity)
• Material: Most common is high-quality carbon steel with anti-corrosion treatment (epoxy paint/primer inside). Higher-spec models may use Stainless Steel (e.g., SS304) or PP composite material for rust resistance.
• Capacity: Varies, but typical 4x4 models often carry between 3,000 to 8,000 Liters (Water). If it's a foam-tanker, it will have a separate or combined compartment for foam concentrate (e.g., 500L to 1000L).
• Structure: Includes internal anti-slosh/anti-vibration baffles, a manhole with a quick locking/opening device, an overflow port, and a residual liquid outlet.
2. Fire Pump and Water System
• Pump Type: Typically a Centrifugal Fire Pump (e.g., CB10/40, CB10/60, or a combination medium/low pressure pump).
• Installation: Often rear-mounted.
• Rated Flow: Common flow rates range from 40 L/s to 60 L/s at a rated pressure (e.g., 1.0 MPa or 10 bar).
• Suction: Equipped with a vacuum or electric vacuum pump for self-priming, capable of suctioning water from a source (like a pond or river) from a depth of around 7 meters.
• Pipe System: Made of high-quality seamless steel pipe with flange connections. Includes pump suction, water injection outlets, and lateral water outlets (e.g., DN65, DN80).
3. Fire Monitor (Water Cannon)
• Installation: Mounted on the roof of the vehicle.
• Control: Can be manual or electronic/wireless remote control.
• Rated Flow: Matches the pump capacity (e.g., 40 L/s to 64 L/s).
• Range: Typically achieves a water range of ≥55 to 65 meters.
• Rotation: Often capable of 360° rotation.
4. Equipment Compartments
• Location: Equipment boxes are generally located on the sides, behind the crew cab. The pump room is at the rear.
• Access: Secured by aluminum alloy rolling shutter doors on the sides and rear for quick access.
• Features:
• Interior lighting.
• Customized storage boxes, push-pull trays, and fixed fixtures for fire fighting equipment (hoses, nozzles, SCBA sets, tools).
• Anti-slip foot pedals/steps on the sides and a climbing ladder at the rear (often aluminum alloy).

• Control Panels: Separate control systems in the cab (for PTO, warning lights, siren) and the pump room (for pump operation, water/foam proportioning, pressure display).
• Safety/Warning: Includes a long row of red and blue strobe warning lights and a siren installed on the cab roof.
• Auxiliary Lighting: Equipped with task-specific lighting in the crew room, pump room, and equipment boxes.

The HOWO Sinotruk Full Driver Fire Truck 4X4 is a versatile fire fighting and emergency response vehicle. The 4X4 drive and often full-driver (crew) cab indicate it is designed for environments that require both off-road capability and the ability to transport a full team of firefighters.

Typical applications and use environments include:

• Wildland/Rural Firefighting: The 4x4 capability allows the truck to access difficult or rough terrain, which is common in forests, grasslands, mountainous areas, and remote rural locations where standard 4x2 fire engines might get stuck. This makes it suitable for combating wildfires and brush fires.
• Industrial and Mine Sites: Its rugged chassis and off-road capability make it a good fit for large industrial complexes, mining operations, and power plants, which often have challenging or unpaved internal roads and a higher risk of specific industrial fires.
• Urban/Rural Interface: It's often used in areas where the community meets wildland, requiring a vehicle capable of fighting both structural fires (in residential areas) and wildland fires.
• General Emergency Response: The full driver/crew cab allows for a larger team (often 6-8 people) to be transported safely and quickly to the scene. This is essential for effective initial response to fires and various rescue operations.
• Multi-Function Roles: Some models are configured as a Fire Fighting and Sprinkling Truck and can be used for:
• General firefighting.
• Landscape watering/sprinkling.
• Dust suppression (e.g., in mines or construction sites).
• Delivering water to areas with limited hydrant access.

The Sino HOWO 4X4 Water Tank Fire Truck is a rugged fire apparatus designed for emergency response in difficult terrain. While specific equipment can vary slightly between manufacturers and customer requests, the standard and common fire equipment on a 4X4 water tender of this size (approximately 1,000 to 1,500 gallons or 4,000 to 6,000 liters) typically includes:
