Custom Fire Apparatus, Inc. The specified front bumper extension pre -connect discharge outlet(s) shall extend through the bottom floor of specified hose tray, to allow for left -to -right "swivel" hose deployment. FIRE PUMP MODULE, MIDSHIP OF APPARATUS, INDEPENDENT OF THE BODY PUMP ENCLOSURE, BELOW THE CAB BUSTLE - TOP -MOUNT CONTROLS A midship pump compartment/module shall be furnished, designed to allow for "top -mounted" pump instrumentation and controls, which are located aft of the chassis cab, below the cab's extended "bustle", and accessible from within the rear cab interior. The modular style pump enclosure shall be totally independent, located beneath the cab's bustle, approximately 1" ahead of the apparatus body, and 2" to the rear of the chassis cab. The pump module shall be rigidly mounted to the chassis frame rails, designed to allow independent twisting movements of the chassis cab, the pump module, and the apparatus body. The rigid module mount system shall prevent unnecessary movement of the pump compartment, and the resulting mis-alignment of running boards and body rubrails. The pump compartment/module shall be fully enclosed with bolt -together fabricated sheet metal panels on top, sides, front, and rear. The top forward and upper front of the pump module shall be furnished with replaceable hollow -core collapsible rubber weatherstripping, sealing the perimeter of the mating areas where the chassis cab back and bustle bottom contact the pump module. So as to allow for an unobstructed view of the fire pump's side inlet(s), from the interior cab pump operator's position, the upper pump module sides shall "taper -in" to a dimension of 78". The lower portion of the pump module shall be of adequate width (82") to fully enclose the optional side suction master inlet gate valve(s) and intake relief valve(s). STAINLESS STEEL CONSTRUCTION Pump compartment shall be of all -bolted construction, fully enclosed, constructed of type 304 brushed stainless steel. Due to the entire pump house module being constructed of scuff -resistant non -painted brushed stainless steel, neither polished stainless steel nor aluminum treadplate overlays are required for scuff protection. ACCOMMODATIONS FOR FORWARD LOWER LEVEL HOSEBEDS The lower forward portion of the pump module shall provide adequate space to accommodate any optionally specified pre -connect hose bed(s). RUNNING BOARDS Driver's and passenger's side pump panel running boards to be furnished, extending from rear of specified lower chassis cab steps to front side body compartment corners. 07/26/22 -82-
