Martin Nowak recently came across the detail page for Elburn & Countryside FPD’s new fire apparatus. The vehicle, designated as Custom Top Mount Pumper #2030, is a state-of-the-art engine designed to meet the demanding needs of the Elburn and Countryside Fire Protection District in Illinois.
The truck features a Spartan Gladiator MFD 10†raised roof chassis, powered by a Cummins ISL9 diesel engine producing 450 horsepower. It's equipped with an Allison 3000 EVS automatic transmission, ensuring smooth and reliable performance on the job.
The body is constructed from heavy-duty 3/16†aluminum, featuring ROM roll-up doors for easy access. The apparatus includes a 1000-gallon poly tank and a 30-gallon foam tank, along with a Hale QMAX125 pump capable of delivering 1250 GPM. The pump operator panel is conveniently located on top of the unit, enhancing visibility and control.
With six 2½†discharges, two on the left, one on the right, and three at the rear, plus a 4†discharge on the right and a 3†discharge for the deck gun, this pumper is fully equipped for a variety of firefighting scenarios. The Akron Apollo Deck Gun and two 2½†gated suctions ensure flexibility during operations.
The truck also includes one 2½†and two 1½†Mattydale preconnects, a Foam Pro 2002 single tank foam system, and a 21†front bumper extension with a 5†front suction and 1½†preconnect. Inside the cab, there are two EMS cabinets, while the wheel wells house three triple-bottle air compartments.
Additional features include a Zico hydraulic ladder rack, Stokes basket storage, and a Pike Pole storage compartment. The Kussmaul 1200 battery conditioner/air compressor with auto eject, along with a Federal Q2B mechanical siren and a Whelen electronic siren, ensures optimal performance and safety.
The vehicle is also equipped with two FRC Evolution 12-volt brow lights, two Whelen Pioneer 12-volt scene lights, and a Smart Power 5500-watt hydraulically driven generator. A 100-foot electric cord reel with a junction box is mounted on the right side, and four FRC Focus 120-volt recessed scene lights provide ample illumination.
The truck is finished with a Chevron pattern striping on the rear and is built to handle heavy-duty use. With an overall height of 9’8â€, a length of 32’8â€, a 202†wheelbase, and a GVWR of 48,500 lbs, it's a powerful and versatile tool for the department.
