Raptor Aerials

The perfect truck for imperfect conditions. Conditions aren't always ideal, so the Raptor uses two different systems to enhance set-up and platform placement. The Raptor's outrigger system is the fastest in the industry, fully deploying and locking in all four out-and-down jack legs in 20 seconds. Advanced CAN-bus electronics then monitor and allow safe aerial operations even when the apparatus cannot by fully jacked.
Quick, convenient controls. With modern CAN-bus electronics, the Raptor's improved controls allow faster operation both inside the cage and at the turntable.
Improved platform space and capabilities. The Raptor's rescue cage has increased space, lift-up handrails and multiple egress points, including a frontal fold-down access ladder.
Better comfort. Better visibility. The Raptor's display console ensures smooth and solid procedures, while the operator's seat provides a clear, comfortable view, even when the aerial is fully raised.
Over 100' reach but drives like a pumper. The Raptor's short wheelbase allows this rescue-platform to maneuver in tight or congested street where others imply cannot. For this reason, the raptor was a natural fit in the narrow streets of tourist communities such as Nantucket Island, Mass.
Clearly designed to operate in extremely tight spaces. The Raptor's ability is unmatched in the US market to deliver rescue operations.
Raptor meets and exceeds NFPA standards.
Making rescues easier. The Raptor's impressive 102' reach and positioning features make it the perfect device for water and ice rescue, reaching nearly 20 degrees below grade.
The Raptor offers a wide sweeping elevation range of -15 to 75 degrees. Additionally, the vehicle can be purposely positioned further off-level and operates at an unbelieveable -22 degrees.
Ground sensing outrigger pads.
The Raptor aerial can fully extend in less than 60 seconds about half the time of other aerials. With cutting-edge outrigger and aerial speed, this unpreceented technology is available only from Rosenbauer. No matter the conditions or terrain, the Raptor immediately adapts to your needs, keeping your energy focused on the fire-ground. It's the most technologically advanced aerial in the industry. And it's Readt to Serve.

Bosch CAN-BUS Technology
Development of the CAN-bus started originally in 1983 at Robert Bosch GmbH.The protocol was officially released in 1986 at the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) congress in Detroit. The first CAN controller chips, produced by Intel and Philips, came on the market in 1987. Bosch published the CAN 2.0 specification in 1991.

CAN is a broadcast, differential serial bus standard for connecting electronic control units (ECUs).

Each node is able to send and receive messages, but not simultaneously: a message (consisting primarily of an ID — usually chosen to identify the message-type/sender — and up to eight message bytes) is transmitted serially onto the bus, one bit after another — this signal-pattern codes the message (in NRZ) and is sensed by all nodes.

The devices that are connected by a CAN network are typically sensors, actuators and control devices. A CAN message never reaches these devices directly, but instead a host-processor and a CAN Controller is needed between these devices and the bus.

Rosenbauer NH Series Fire Pump

Rosenbauer NH Series Pumps

Pump Ratings: NH 500 GPM at 150 psi, NH 750 GPM at 150 psi, NH 1000 GPM at 150 psi, NH 1250 GPM at 150 psi

Design: Multi-stage high pressure/volume fire pump

Pump Construction: High-grade alloy pump and accurately balanced impellers mounted on a stainless steel shaft.

Gear Case: Constructed from high-strength, low noise and helical cut for maximum transfer of power to pump. Multiple final drive gear ratios are available for maximum performance.

Gears: Gears are high strength, low noise and helical cut for maximum transfer of power to pump. Multiple final drive gear ratios are available for maximum performance.

Impellers: High-grade, light alloy impellers and diffusers

Priming System: Powered by a Rosenbauer positive displacement double-acting piston pump with oil bath lubricated moving parts. Primer pump is belt-driven from the pump gear case and automatically actuated when the pump is engaged. The priming pump disengages as prime is achieved and positive pressure is attained. Oils and lubricants are not expelled into the atmosphere in the priming process. A primer oil reservoir is not required and never needs refilling.
