IVECO MAGIRUS Brandschutztechnik GmbH news
The Brazilian state of Ceará received the first FireBull – the world's first tracked fire engine from Magirus. A delegation with high-ranking representatives of the Governor of the Brazilian state of Ceará, the fire brigades and partners were guests at the Magirus Experience Center in Ulm for the technical acceptance and handover of the world’s first tracked fire engine, as well as a MultiStar combination vehicle and several portable fire pumps. State-of-the-art Magirus vehicles delivered Carlos Décimo de Souza from the Secretariat for Research, Technology and Education of the Governor of Ceará expressed his thanks for the very good, trusting and cooperative partnership. He said “We are thrilled to be able to take delivery of these state-of-the-art Magirus vehicles here in Ulm.” Carlos Décimo de Souza adds, “With the consistent renewal and constant expansion with innovative, unique deployment technology, such as extinguishing robots and powerful special vehicles, such as the Magirus FireBull, we want to ensure that our emergency forces can make a sustainable contribution to the protection of people, material and companies in our region, and are themselves always protected in the best possible way.” FireBull tracked fire engine The proven AirCore water mist technology enables efficient fire-fighting with high penetration depths The FireBull tracked fire engine from Magirus combines the highly efficient AirCore extinguishing technology, flexible set-up options and the extremely all-terrain PowerBully chassis from Kässbohrer Geländefahrzeug AG, to form a globally unique and versatile special fire-fighting vehicle. The proven AirCore water mist technology enables efficient fire-fighting with high penetration depths and throwing distances of up to 80 meters, but also an excellent cooling effect with minimal water consumption. Transport of high volumes of extinguishing agent The transport of high volumes of extinguishing agent (9,000 liters of water, 2,000 liters of foam) with a minimum ground pressure of 0.300 kilograms per square centimeter, at a permissible total weight of 30 tons, is one of the central advantages in impassable and difficult-to-access terrain. In future, the FireBull will be used in the region around Porto do Pecém, in Brazil. In addition to being called out for use in vegetation fires or operations in the nearby reserve and protected area, the region has a large port, beaches and numerous large industrial operations ranging from recycling plants to steel production, some of which have difficult-to-access terrain. Magirus MultiStar combination vehicle With the Magirus MultiStar, the Brazilian state of Ceará receives a unique combination vehicle consisting of a telescopic boom with rescue cage and a tank pumper. The aluminum telescopic boom allows an operating range of -12 m to +30.5 m, as well as an outreach of 16.5 m (3 persons). The Magirus TeamCab crew cabin offers space for 1 + 5 persons. The MultiStar is equipped with a fire-fighting centrifugal pump - FPN 10-3000 and FPH 40-250 with high pressure in bronze, as well as an extinguishing agent or foam tank with 1,500 liters of water and 300 liters of foam. Versatile equipment and fittings Magirus MultiStar offers smaller fire brigades the possibility of handling a wide range of different operations Thanks to its versatile equipment and fittings, the Magirus MultiStar offers smaller fire brigades, in particular, the possibility of handling a wide range of different operations - from transporting water, crew and equipment to rescuing people and providing technical assistance - with one vehicle. More than 10 of these vehicles are already in use in Brazil. In addition to the MultiStar and the FireBull, three new Magirus FIRE 1000 portable fire pumps complete the current delivery. Magirus delivers additional equipment to Ceará As early as the end of 2021, Magirus handed over an AirCore TAF35 fire-fighting robot, an AirCore turbine fire-fighting vehicle on an Iveco Daily 4x4, a MultiStar and the world’s highest articulated turntable ladder, an M42L-AS with rear-axle steering, to the Brazilian state of Ceará. In combination with the new vehicles, the Brazilian state has an innovative fleet of fire engines and special vehicles that is unparalleled not only in Brazil, but the world. The Magirus FireBull and the MultiStar will be shipped to Brazil in the coming weeks and presented to the public at a festive ceremony.
Rosenbauer rounds off its product portfolio for fighting forest fires. The range already includes a complete line-up of robust forest firefighting vehicles, water-saving extinguishing systems (high/extreme pressure systems, compressed air foam systems), special technical equipment and lightweight personal protective equipment. Rosenbauer Firefighter Excavator Heavy equipment is now also newly added to the range, with the introduction of the Rosenbauer firefighter excavator. The vehicle can be operated at high ambient temperatures and is used in wildland firefighting, for example to create firebreaks and access paths, dig trenches, or widen fireproof barriers (such as roads and paths). Unlike conventional excavators used in construction, the fire brigade excavator does not have to be transported to the site of deployment on a truck trailer, but drives there on its own at speeds of up to 100 km/h. In addition, it is an ideal clearance and recovery device in the event of floods, mudslides, or avalanches, and is therefore suitable for any type of disaster (prevention) operation. Multi-Functional Device The telescopic arm is extremely robust and has a horizontal reach of up to 14.6 meters The Rosenbauer firefighting excavator consists of two modules: an all-wheel drive chassis and an excavator attachment with a telescopic boom. The excavator module is powered by its own 126 hp engine, which provides a maximum digging force of 85 kN. The telescopic arm is extremely robust and has a horizontal reach of up to 14.6 meters, giving the excavator a very large radius of action and enabling work to be carried out at a safe distance from the seat of a fire. The lifting capacity is 7 tons, with the telescopic arm retracted and 2.6 tons at maximum extension. Featuring An Extensive Range Of Accessories An extensive range of accessories allows the telescopic excavator to be turned into a multi-functional device for a wide variety of tasks. Shovels, buckets, tongs, grapples and hydraulic tools (hydraulic hammer) are available, all mounted on a rotary head. The rotary head allows the tools to be rotated 360°, facilitating excavation and demolition work or the demolition of fire remains from all sides. Four extendable jacks ensure the necessary stability. In addition, the vehicle can be equipped with cable winches for towing and a clearing blade for clearing work. Robust All-Wheel Drive The firefighting excavator is built on an extremely off-road capable Tatra chassis in 6x6 and 8x8 versions, with an underaxle clearance of 400 mm and a fording ability of 1,200 mm. On request, special chassis from other manufacturers, including MAN, Mercedes-Benz AG, Iveco, and Rheinmetall, among others, can also be used. In the vehicles with a 6x6 drive, all of the excavator’s functions can be controlled from the driver’s cab In the vehicles with a 6x6 drive, all of the excavator’s functions can be controlled from the driver’s cab, and simple driving commands, such as ‘drive forward slowly’, ‘turn the vehicle’, and ‘deploy jacks’ can also be given via a control panel in the excavator cab. Water-Saving Extinguishing Technology The 8x8 chassis version has an additional equipment compartment that can accommodate a complete forest fire extinguishing system, including a water tank (500 l). For example, the Rosenbauer UHPS (Ultra High Pressure System) can be incorporated, by which very finely nebulized water or a water/foam mixture is produced and an excellent extinguishing effect can be achieved, with just a small amount of extinguishing agent. Due to the high kinetic energy of the water jet (100 bar), it penetrates particularly deeply into flammable materials, which is an essential feature when extinguishing hot spots. In addition, adding even small amounts of foam compound significantly improves the extinguishing effect, due to the fact that it reduces the surface tension of the water and allows even better penetration of the flammable material. Additionally, the pressure hoses are significantly lighter than conventional fire hoses and much easier to handle on rough terrain. Upon request, the vehicle can be also be equipped with special self-protection systems for the cab and wheels. Available Now The firefighting excavator has been jointly developed with the globally renowned mechanical engineering company -CSM Industry, on the basis of their proven UDS multi-functional excavator. Production of the firefighting excavator takes place on the premises of the Slovakian partner, while Rosenbauer handles global sales.

On April 2, 2022, eight urban fire-fighting vehicles were officially handed over to local fire brigades in Omegna, in Italy, on a special day that was full of institutional appointments. On April 2, 2022 in Omegna in the Italian Province Verbano-Cusio-Ossala (VCO), in the presence of local authorities, the President of the Italian Firefighter Association (Vigili del Fuoco), the Provincial Commander of the volunteer fire brigades VCO, the Presidents of the Cariplo Foundation and the VCO Community Foundation, as well as representatives of local volunteer fire departments, eight Magirus CITY 2020 tank pumpers were handed over to the fire brigades of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola. Magirus CITY 2020 tank pumpers Magirus won the tender from the Italian Ministry of the Interior by offering its CITY 2020, a very compact urban fire-fighting vehicle. Andrea Mantoan, President of the local firefighter association, said “Vigili del Fuoco Volontari Sezione del VCO” comments: "We chose the CITY 2020 for its versatility and compactness. Thanks to its short wheelbase, this fire engine can be maneuvered with great ease. Magirus offered us the ideal combination of state-of-the-art technology and cutting-edge performance.” ‘Made in Brescia’ double cab and Iveco Eurocargo chassis The CITY 2020 features the ‘Made in Brescia’ double cab, the Iveco Eurocargo chassis, the high-performance fire pump The CITY 2020 features the ‘Made in Brescia’ double cab, the Iveco Eurocargo chassis, the high-performance fire pump (2,000 l/min at 10 bar and 350 l/min at 40 bar), a water tank with 2,200 liters and a foam tank with 120 liters. Its compact measurements, large loading capacities, the short wheelbase of only 3,105 mm and the vehicle height of 3,100 mm improve its turning radius and lower its center of gravity. These technical features make the vehicle complete, easy to maneuver and usable on a variety of operations. Eight CITY 2020 Magirus fire-fighting vehicles procured The goal of the volunteer fire brigades to buy eight fire-fighting vehicles was ambitious, but thanks to the help of many, it was achieved. The association of local volunteer fire brigades managed to raise the money needed to renew the vehicle fleet that was more than thirty years old. This success, made up of team spirit, a strong sense of belonging and love for the territory, has its roots in 2017. In that year, the VCO association set up the foundation ‘FONDO SOCCORSO SICURO’ at the Community Foundation of the VCO, to support volunteer fire brigades, with the main aim of replacing the outdated vehicle fleet. The following year, the project was put forward in the Cariplo Foundation’s call for proposals and the municipalities of the VCO were asked to cooperate. In 2019, the Cariplo Foundation and 74 municipalities raised the necessary funds. The contract for the purchase of the eight CITY 2020 Magirus fire-fighting vehicles was then signed.
