Rosenbauer has announced the roll out of their RDL - Rapid Deploy Light tower, an auto-deploying pneumatic LED scene light tower, at its annual dealer meeting, held in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Upon activation, the RDL - Rapid Deploy Light tower deploys to a height of eight feet, with the capability of extending up to 20 feet, under manual control.
Two versions of the RDL - Rapid Deploy Light tower will be available from Rosenbauer:
- RDL-S Rapid Deploy Light tower model: The RDL-S model features four stationary 120v LED Whelen Pioneer light heads that illuminate 360°.
- RDL-M Rapid Deploy Light tower model: It RDL-M model features four adjustable 120v LED Whelen Pioneer light heads. Each light head is capable of moving up to 90°, in order to align with two others, so as to provide up to three light heads shining in one direction.
Complements CleanLocker and RDT system
“Our RDL is a complement to our CleanLocker and the RDT system, to help firefighters save time, when they arrive first on scene,” explained Scott Oyen, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Rosenbauer South Dakota.
Scott Oyen adds, “As the apparatus arrives, the FOA or officer would activate the entire CleanLocker system for quick access to clean turnout gear and for RDT to deploy rescue tools and equipment at the rear of the apparatus. It is all about being efficient on scene.”
FDIC International 2019
Rosenbauer will display the RDL-M Rapid Deploy Light tower in April 2019, in Exhibit Hall J, at booth 5200, at the Fire Department Instructor’s Conference (FDIC) International 2019 event, which will take place in the Indiana Convention Center, Indianapolis.
