Sinotruk Howo 3000 gallon fire tanker Malawi

The Sinotruk HOWO 3000 gallon fire tanker is a 12000 litre water tender built on a 4x2 HOWO chassis with a 290 HP diesel engine and 8 speed manual gearbox. It is designed for fire brigades and industrial safety teams that need to reach a fire site without a hydrant and sustain a working water stream long enough to control a spreading fire. The CB10/40 normal pressure pump delivers 40 litres per second at 1.0 MPa and feeds a PL24-48 monitor that throws water over 50 metres, enabling a safe stand off from intense heat and flashover conditions.

Key Benefits

  • 12000 litre carbon steel tank holds a 40 l/s stream without needing a water shuttle
  • PL24-48 monitor reaches beyond 50 metres so crews stay outside the radiant heat zone
  • 290 HP Sinotruk engine and gearbox designed for 500000 km without overhaul
  • Sandwich PTO allows pump and roll operation while moving on unpaved access roads
  • Aluminium alloy equipment locker with curtain door keeps hoses and tools dry and secure
  • Left or right hand drive chassis matches local traffic regulations and road rules
