A fire equipment truck carries the tools, hose, foam and spare cylinders that a task force consumes. The range covers 98–168 equipment sets, 16–18 t bodies, custom racking and optional cranes or tail lifts. For fire services, industrial brigades and airport teams that need a mobile equipment store behind the pumpers.
The range is delivered through CIMC Firetruck, with core manufacturing at Sichuan Chuanxiao in Chengdu. Every enquiry is tied to a written specification, a chassis or component availability date and a documentation pack for tender, registration or customs review.
A pumper runs out of hose, foam and spare cylinders before the incident is over. An equipment truck brings the resupply to the scene without emptying the station.
A long incident consumes equipment: hose, branches, foam concentrate, SCBA cylinders, batteries and tools. An equipment truck carries the reserve in a organized body, with racking that lets a crew find a part in the dark and a tail lift or crane that can move a heavy item without a forklift.
The commercial case is decided by four things: body volume, racking, payload and loading equipment; the usable capacity, 98–168 equipment sets on a 16–18 t body; crew and equipment fit; and the documentation needed for registration or tender. A lower purchase price that ignores one of those numbers is usually paid back in downtime.
The body volume, racking, payload and loading equipment are fixed in one drawing package before production. The customer approves the interface, the performance figures and the equipment list as a set, not as separate purchase orders.
The body, tank, pump, control logic and equipment mounting are engineered together. The interface risk sits with one build team, not between an importer, a body builder and a component supplier.
The specification is built around 98–168 equipment sets on a 16–18 t body, then checked against the chassis axle rating, the stability envelope and the duty cycle. The advertised maximum is not used as the design point.
The body is laid out around walk-in or walk-around racking, a tail lift or crane and a power supply for tools and lighting, with the controls, hose bed, lockers and equipment reachable from the ground. The crew should not have to climb on the roof to start the attack.
Each equipment truck is delivered with a model-specific parts list, a first-year consumable recommendation and a documented service schedule. Wear parts are identified before delivery, not after the first failure.
Dimensional drawings, test records, operation manuals and the inspection file are prepared before shipment. The tender or registration package is reviewed against the destination requirements.
Start with the incident, the access and the water or power source. The configuration follows.
A mobile equipment store for a task force working away from its station.
Hose, breathing air, lighting and rescue tools for a long tunnel operation.
Shoring, cutting, lifting and search equipment in a organized body.
Spare foam, dry powder, cylinders and tools for a crash or a plant incident.
A equipment body for training exercises, public events and remote standby.
A complete equipment package with a single spare-parts list and English manuals.
The certificate and the test record are part of the product, not paperwork added after the order.
Quality, environmental and occupational health and safety management systems certified to GB/T 19001, GB/T 24001 and GB/T 45001. Certificates are available for pre-qualification.
Equipment bodies are reviewed against GB 7956.14 where the appliance is classified as a rescue vehicle, including racking, lighting and safety.
The body, racking and equipment list are checked against the chassis payload and axle rating. A tail lift or crane changes the load case and is included in the calculation.
For markets outside China, the technical file is built around the standard named in the tender. Applicability and third-party certification are confirmed in writing before contract.

The equipment range is built around the list: racking, payload and loading equipment configured for the tools the task force actually carries. The core manufacturing base is in Chengdu, with tank fabrication, subframe and body welding, pump assembly, electrical harnesses, painting and full-load testing under one management system.
Sichuan Chuanxiao Fire Trucks Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a member of CIMC Tianda Holdings and traces its line to the Sichuan Fire Machinery Factory, founded in 1963. The company operates a 200,000 m² plant with more than 500 employees and a range of more than 300 fire truck variants.
Products are distributed in more than 60 countries, with service to more than 2,000 fire departments and rescue organizations. Factory-direct supply covers the appliance, the fire pump and monitor, the body and the parts list, rather than a broker assembling unrelated components.
Diario Libre reported the January 2019 delivery of 40 fire trucks to the Dominican Republic as the first Chinese aid project since the two countries established diplomatic relations. The trucks were built by Sichuan Chuanxiao and handed over to the national 9-1-1 system.
Source: Diario LibreThe handover is the start of the service record, not the end of the order.
Published orders, handovers and platform records with buyer, date, quantity and source. Figures are as reported, not estimates.
A dedicated airport rescue support vehicle, tendered separately from the airport’s main crash tenders.
A single equipment vehicle in the 2024 first-batch package, specified for fire logistics and support.
Each truck carries an 80 kW generator and eight 2 kW lamps. The award specifies a five-year vehicle warranty.
Verification note: each record is linked to its published source. Where a source did not publish a value or quantity, the card says so.
The questions that decide the configuration, the chassis and the documentation package.
A 16–18 t body can carry 98–168 equipment sets, depending on the racking and the size of the items. The number is less important than the list: confirm the actual tools, boxes and cylinders before the layout is frozen.
Aluminium profile racking with adjustable shelves, bins and straps is common. Heavy items go low and forward; frequently used items go at the rear or the side door. The racking should be tested with the loaded weight, not the empty body.
Yes. Compartment layout, shelving, lighting, power outlets, tail lift, crane and climate control are specified per order. Send the equipment list and the station bay dimensions.
A tail lift is useful for heavy boxes and cylinders; a crane is better for bulky items and off-road positions. Both add weight and cost, so the loading task should justify the choice.
For Fire Equipment Trucks, the documentation package includes the ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management system certificates, the applicable GB 7956 test basis and the material and pressure test records. Market-specific certification is quoted separately.
A standard configuration on an available chassis is typically 90–180 days after drawing approval. Imported chassis, aerial appliances, custom bodies and specialized equipment can take 6–10 months. The contract should state the chassis, drawing approval and delivery dates separately.
Yes. The equipment truck can be configured around the tank, pump, body, equipment and destination requirements. The limit is the chassis rating, the stability calculation and the applicable standard, not the catalogue.
Large vehicles usually move by RoRo; smaller equipment can ship by container or air freight. A factory acceptance test can be arranged before shipment, and commissioning or training can be provided on site or remotely.
Training covers operation, daily inspection and the task-specific drill. Each equipment truck is supplied with a model-specific spare parts list, and a first-year consumables kit can be quoted.
Warranty terms are set in the contract and typically cover the chassis per the chassis manufacturer’s terms and the fire body or equipment for 12–24 months. Extended coverage and a service-level agreement can be quoted.
Compare the drawing, the bill of materials, the pump or system curve, the tank material, the axle-load calculation and the test plan. A lower price with a smaller tank, a generic pump or missing test records is not the same product.
Send the task, the required capacity or flow, the chassis preference, the destination market and the equipment list. For a equipment truck, a site plan, a photo of the access or the existing installation is also useful.
Tell us the tools, the cylinders, the heavy items and the station bay. We will lay out the racking and the loading equipment around the list.
Quotations are based on a frozen technical specification. Final capacity, flow, height and equipment are confirmed in the signed agreement.
