Rosenbauer's Panther cab has tremendous interior space. A variety of storage options for equipment and medical cabinets can be designed into any Panther.

Chassis: Rosenbauer Motors 4x4, 665hp Detroit Diesel engine,Twin Disk 6 speed automatic transmission, Rosenbauer (HPCS) High Performance Coil Spring suspension system, Firefighting system: Rosenbauer 1,850 gpm pump, Rosenbauer automatic foam proportioning system, 1,500 gallons of water, 200 gallons of foam, 460lb. Halotron system, 150’ of 1” Halotron reel, Water/foam reel, 300gpm bumper turret Dual flow 375/750 roof turret, Full firefighting structural panel, 104,000btu winterization system, Electrical: 10kw Onan hydraulic generator, 750 watt telescoping quartz lighting Electric rewind cord reel with 150’ of 12/3 cord and junction box, (DEVS) Drivers Enhanced Vision System with FLIR LED warning light package, Electric rewind air reel with 150’ of 3/8” hose

The cab, water tank, and engine module assemblies are mounted with stress isolating rubber cone bearings attached to the chassis frame rails. This provides optimum weight distribution on the axles assuring the required soft soil mobility and maximum traction for cross-country travel.

Rosenbauer’s exclusive multi-plex data panel offers ease of operation with push button switches color coded to the particular function. Engaging the pump and flowing water from the turret is as simple as a two step process by pushing the pump n roll switch and pulling the trigger on the turret joystick.

Thermostatically clutch controlled pusher fan provides fresh air to the radiator by means of an air duct. Air is ingested through the top of the vehicle and exhausted out the rear. Hot air from the engine compartment is never directed across the radiator cooling fins and provides excellent engine temperature control.

Every Panther built comes standard with a structural pump panel which includes Pressure governor throttle control system, master pump intakes and two (2) 2 ½” discharges with pressure gauges.

Quick response handline tucked in side compartment.

ARFF units are are equipped with Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) thermal imaging.

Ground nozzles provide a blanket of protection upon arrival at the incident scene.

State-of-the-Art communications on the go. The power of command center applications including ground mapping with real time vehicle tracking.

Easy access inside the cab fuse box.

When seconds count, you need a vehicle with unmatched handling and maneuverability that will get you to the scene fast yet safe! Rosenbauer’s exclusive High Performance Coil Spring Suspension System (HPCS) exceeds 150/5220-10D and NFPA 414 and provides a smooth ride on and off road. The Rosenbauer (HPCS) system will out perform all other ARFF vehicles in its class.

Every ARFF vehicle built by Rosenbauer is tilt table tested to ensure the final product meets 150/5220-10D and NFPA 414.

R600

Double Stage, High Performance

The rugged design and flat output characteristic at a high level of efficiency are the definitive characteristics of this 6,000 liter pump. This pump has convinced fire services worldwide and epitomizes the quality for which ROSENBAUER is famous.

The R600 is the universal truck-mounted fire pump for airport, industrial and tanker vehicles, as well as firefighting vessels and stationary equipment.

Excellent Pump Capacity Combined with a Flat Output Characteristic and Safe Operation

The R600 provides convincing capacity. Up to 7,000 l/min at 10 bar in tank-to-pump mode and 6,000 l/min at 10 bar at a suction height of 3 m (ND150). The pump's excellent efficiency means that a drive output of just approx. 165 kW is required.

Besides operating safety, the quality of a fire pump is defined by a flat output characteristic.

Pressure changes, caused by opening and closing outlets are reduced to a minimum – a fact that your branchman will appreciate.

The R600 is designed for durable performance.
The stainless steel pump shaft is borne by triple roller bearings. The main bearings run in an oil bath in the gear box and are thus maintenance-free.

A wear-free mechanical shaft seal keeps the system tight. Thanks to specially selected materials for the mechanical shaft seal, dry or emergency running is supported.

RVMA500

Automatic Around-the-Pump Foam Proportioning System "RVMA500"

A fully mechanical, automatic around-the-pump foam proportioning system is available for the R600. The system is designed to suit the pump's output characteristic and is embedded in the pump.

Water metering valves are actuated in direct proportion to the water flow rate. The actuation is conveyed mechanically and used to open and close the foam proportioning valve. The current proportioning rate is visualized by means of a cam disk. A maximum of 3 proportioning rates is supported.

Benefits:

Perfectly geared for the R600
Excellent foam compound suction capacity
Completely maintenance-free
Fully mechanical proportioning system
Up to 3 different proportioning rates
Proportioning rate does not depend on pump capacity or pressure

The main field of deployment for the RVMA500 is thus airport, industrial and tanker vehicles, as well as firefighting vessels and stationary equipment.
