APPARATUS OF THE MONTH
By John M. Malecky October, 2019
NEW E-ONE’S FOR MONROE TWP. DISTRICT 1
This is the Monroe Township in Middlesex County, not the one in Gloucester County. The first apparatus is an E-ONE Cyclone HP100 rear-mount platform quint. It has a Hale Qmax, single-stage 2000-GPM pump and a 300-gallon water tank. The body is of 3/16th inch aluminum. The outrigger spread is 15-feet, six-inches. The scene lighting is by Ridgid and Whelen. The second apparatus is a “dedicated” rescue truck (no pump or water tank). It also is a Cyclone and has a Cummins ISX 12, 500 hp diesel engine. The body is a 22-foot walk-around. It has an Onan 25 kw PTO generator, Whelen and Fire Tech scene lighting, a Warn 9,000-pound winch, a Holmatro four tool PTO system and Holmatro battery operated rescue tools. The next two apparatus featured are from West Deptford (Gloucester County). I must apologize to the kind and cooperative personnel who pulled these vehicles out because it took so long to get into the column. With the many apparatus that I photograph, it simply slipped my mind that I had not featured them until now because they were new when the shots were taken. Both are KME's. The pumper from Colonial Manor is a Predator Panther and the rescue is a Panther with the Verga Fire Company. In the same county we are featuring a Freightliner M2/Hackney light and air truck from the Star Cross Fire Company in Franklin Township. Two Edison tag on Spartan ER pumpers are next which brought the order to five, and a special operations unit which is a Freightliner, M2 106 with a Morgan body and rear lift gate. The last vehicle featured is a Pierce Arrow XT, PUC pumper for the Griggstown Fire Company in Franklin Township that is in Somerset County.
In dealer news Fire & Safety Services reports the following Pierce deliveries: Laurel Springs (Camden County) received an Impel heavy duty rescue pumper and Mahwah (Bergen County), an Arrow XT pumper. Pierce orders include an Arrow XT pumper for Dumont and an Enforcer pumper for Ridgefield (both Bergen County), an Enforcer pumper for Chester (Morris County), and two Enforcer pumpers for Hamilton Township in Mercer County. One is for Groveville and the other for Colonial.
Absolute Fire Protection is prepping for Jersey City (Hudson County) an E-ONE Metro 100-foot rear-mount for Ladder 8. They have received an order from Elmwood Park (Bergen County) for a mini pumper on a Ford F-550 chassis. It will have a 1250-GPM pump, 300-gallon water tank and will be for Company 3.
Campbell Supply Co., LLC has delivered to the Fairmount FC protecting Tewksbury and Washington Townships (Morris County), a Spartan ER, Star CAFS pumper. Specs include a Gladiator MFD chassis with 10-inch raised roof cab, Cummins ISX, 565 hp diesel engine, Waterous CSU, 2000-GPM pump, 200 CFM, CAFS, 750-gallon water and 30-gallon foam tanks, and a Harrison 10 kw generator. Spartan ER’s being prepped are a 100-foot rear-mount platform quint for Beach Haven (Ocean County), a 100-foot mid-mount quint for the McAfee FC in Vernon Township (Sussex County), a pumper for the Community FC in Wayne Township (Passaic County), and a pumper for South Orange (Essex County). Orders include for the Morganville FC in Marlboro Township (Monmouth County), a Star Series rescue pumper. Specs include a Gladiator ELFD chassis with 20-inch raised roof cab, Cummins ISX 12, 500 hp diesel engine, Darley PSM, 1500-GPM pump, Foam Pro 2002 system, 750-gallon water, 20 and 30 gallon foam tanks, and a Harrison 10 kw generator. For the Borough of Garwood (Union County), a stock 100-foot mid-mount platform with Gladiator MFD chassis, 10-inch raised roof cab, Cummins ISX-15, 600 hp diesel engine, Waterous CSUD, 2000-GPM pump, 300-gallon water tank, Harrison 10 kw generator and 155 cubic feet of storage. I believe this will be their first aerial piece. For the Community FC in Wayne Township (whose pumper is now being prepped as stated above), a separate contract for refurbishing a 2003 Spartan/Saulsbury Class “A” pumper that will be done at the Spartan re-furb facility in Ephrata, PA.
