Rapid Intervention System
ATTENTION !
Do not tension the hose when rewinding! If the hose is tensioned
too much, it could damage the hose reel, when supplied with
pressure.
At no time open the water tank suction or the water tank pump fill
valve during purge procedure (as long as compressed air
overpressure is in the piping system). Compressed air can severely
damage the water tank. After each purge procedure the com-
pressed air overpressure must be completely released via the pump
drain valve.
Drainage of the left and right low pressure hose reels
The rapid intervention systems are equipped with a purge valve.
The system can be drained with the vehicle's compressed air.
For stowage and to protect the system from freezing in adverse
conditions, the hoses and the nozzles must be dained carefully after
each use.
- Close the left and the right hose reel discharge valves:
◊
Close hose reel discharge valve (J106).
◊
If active, press again switch (S21) on the external pump
control panel.
- Push the corresponding purge valve (Y115) and open the nozzle
(J99) intermittently until just air is discharged (this is to allow
enough pressure to build up).
- Open drain valve (J167) of right hose reel hub.
