In 2015 KME produced a replacement P-23 designated the P-23R. This vehicle was a lighter 6x6, but having a UHP system carried the firefighting power of the original 8x8 P-23. In 2018 Rosenbauer won a competitive tender to supply 32 P-23 apparatus to the US Air Force. The apparatus is built on a Panther 6x6 ARFF chassis. [4]

When the primary and secondary air tanks reach 80 psi, the air brakes will begin to build pressure. This feature allows the vehicle to be driven as soon as possible in the event of an emergency response. What is the foam storage capacity? What is the apparatus weight with full tanks of foam and water? (Gross Weight) True or false.

Jan 20, 2015 · The Oshkosh UHP firefighting system includes a pump that delivers 300 GPM of foam at 1,250 PSI through a front bumper turret. UHP systems release smaller water droplets at much higher pressure than conventional firefighting systems.

Aug 12, 2022 · Second, crews have proven the Rosenbauer Panthers 3,000-gallon UHP will quickly control and often wholly suppress a JP-8 fire. They proved this during several live-fire training evolutions and multiple real-world brakes and hydraulic fires.

Jan 5, 2015 · Both units operate with a 300-gpm UHP bumper turret (water, foam, and dry chem capable), UHP handline, two 2½” low-pressure handlines, and a dry chem handline. The dual pump system operates at 320 gpm at 1,350 psi in UHP mode and 250 gpm at 150 psi in the stationary low-pressure pumping mode.

UHP lamps are light sources that combine high arc luminance (> 1Gcd/m^2), a long lifetime (2000 - 4000 hours) and a low loss of lumens during that life. The high luminance is achieved by using highly pressurized (>200 bar) mercury vapor as a discharge medium at high power densities of, for example, 120W into an 1.2mm arc gap.
