MDC
500 for 1-ton Pickup Truck
FEATURES
Units
engineered to mount on most standard truck bed sizes, or custom configured
for OEM applications
Modular design provides units sized to fit every hazard with agent
capacities from 500 to 2000 lbs. and choice of components
Available with BC type (Purple K or Monnex) or ABC type (multi-purpose)
dry chemicals
Designed for either one or two person operation for swift first response
situations
Gives rapid flame knockdown to minimize spread and damage of fire
Totally self-contained unit includes agent container, actuator, expellant
gas, agent lines, hose storage, and discharge method
Works independent
for possible interruptions in municipal electrical and water supplies
Easy to maintain and fully field rechargeable to ensure long, reliable
service life
Built to strict U.S. military specifications for extra long service
life

SPECIFICATION
Agent
Container Assembly: The container shall be welded steel construction
built to the latest ASME Unfired Pressure Vessel Code
Container
Fill Cap.: Agent container(s) shall be provided with a cast aluminum
fill cap, hardlube anodized black dyed and Teflon® coated
Container
Pressure Relief Valve: Agent container(s) shall be provided with
a pressure relief valve to prevent the container from exceeding pressures 10%
above maximum working pressure
Actuation:
Unit actuation shall incorporate UL® listed quick opening
(QO) nitrogen cylinder valve
Expellant
Nitrogen Assembly: Unit agent shall be expelled by gas pressure
for nitrogen gas cylinder(s) conforming to the requirements of DOT 3AA
Agent
Lines: Agent hand hose line shall be UL® 92 extinguisher booster
hose fitted with reusable couplings and sized to the discharge requirements
of the unit
Agent
Container Purge and Blowdown: Low pressure agent container piping
for system purge and blowdown shall be brass or other suitable material
Hose
Storage: Manual and electric hose reels shall be of steel construction
suitable to carry the selected length and weight of hose
Agent
Discharge: All agent discharge nozzles shall be constructed of brass,
bronze or hardlube anodized aluminum and be equipped with on/off bail type handles
capable of leak free sealing at unit operation pressure
Finish:
Painted surfaces shall be cleaned and primed with an alkyd-phenolic
rust inhibiting primer and receive a top coat of red automotive grade polyurethane
paint
Skid:
Skids for mounting system components shall be low profile welded
steel construction with lifting provisions and arranged so completed unit can
be securely mounted to truck bed
Operating
Instructions: Control markings, and operating and precautionary instructions
shall be permanently affixed near the appropriate controls for operator use
DESCRIPTION
Fire
Hazard: The type of fuel, potential hazard size, and likely burning
configuration factors like fuel pressure, obstacles, fires in 3 dimensions,
etc
Protection
Objective: The relative importance of code compliance, fire extinguishment
vs. controlling fire spread, and your escape/rescue mission
Agent
choice, discharge time and flow rate: Match agent with fire class,
and define necessary agent discharge characteristics suitable for likely fire
configuration
Unit
capacity and components required: Allow a minimum 30 second
agent discharge per application point (longer if possible), and address manpower/environment
considerations
Training
and ongoing support needed: Conduct a full assessment of
fire fighter skills, and acquire maintenance/recharge supplies for both periodic
training and fire emergency response
SDC
1000 with Turret
FEATURES
Modular design provides units sized to fit every hazard with agent
capacities from 500 to 4000 lbs. and choice of components
Available with BC type (Purple K or sodium bicarbonate) or ABC type
(multi-purpose) dry chemicals
Designed for one person operation or can be configured for multiple
application points
Offers rapid flame knockdown to minimize spread and damage from fire
Totally self-contained unit includes agent tank, actuator, expellant
gas, agent lines, hose storage, and discharge method
Works independent
for possible interruptions in municipal electrical and water supplies
Rugged construction - hardened stainless steel moving parts, corrosion-resistant
hoses and finishes, and brass fittings available - stands up to the most hostile
environments
Costs less and easier to maintain than complicated automatic piped
systems
