ISUZU 8M Rescue Fire Truck

ISUZU 8M Rescue Fire Truck

The ISUZU 8M Rescue Fire Truck is a multifunctional emergency rescue vehicle designed to provide firefighting support, lifting, towing, power generation, lighting, and specialized rescue capabilities from a single mobile platform. Built on a robust ISUZU QL1160 chassis, the vehicle combines a 240HP diesel engine with an 8-meter hydraulic crane, a high-capacity traction winch, a mobile generator, and an elevated lighting system, making it suitable for fire departments, emergency rescue teams, industrial facilities, construction sites, road accidents, and disaster-response operations.

The truck has overall dimensions of approximately 8,490×2,500×3,615mm, with a gross vehicle weight of approximately 12,400kg and a vehicle weight of approximately 11,950kg. Its 4,500mm wheelbase provides a stable platform for the rescue equipment, while the maximum road speed of approximately 90km/h allows the vehicle to respond quickly to emergency locations.

Power is supplied by an ISUZU 6HK1-TCNG40 engine producing approximately 240HP and meeting the Euro 4 emission standard, while the ISUZU MLD transmission provides six forward gears and one reverse gear. The double-line cab is equipped with air conditioning and central locking, providing a practical working environment for the rescue crew.

The vehicle’s most important rescue equipment includes an XCMG SQS02K2 hydraulic crane with a maximum lifting capacity of 5,000kg, a maximum lifting torque of 10.5TM, an 8-meter hydraulic arm, and a maximum working height of approximately 9 meters. The rear-mounted crane can rotate through approximately 370°, giving operators a broad working area around the truck.

For vehicle recovery and heavy-duty pulling operations, the truck is equipped with a USA Champion N16800XF-24V traction winch capable of producing a maximum traction force of approximately 16,800lb (7,560kg), with a 13mm-diameter wire rope measuring approximately 48 meters in length. A 10kW Honda generator and a BOCAN/BSD-Z7041000 lifting lamp provide independent electrical power and high-intensity illumination for nighttime rescue operations.

Features

1. Heavy-Duty ISUZU Rescue Chassis

The ISUZU QL1160 chassis provides a strong and reliable foundation for the multifunctional rescue body, with an overall length of approximately 8,490mm and a 4,500mm wheelbase. The front and rear axle capacities are specified at approximately 6,300kg and 13,000kg, providing substantial load-bearing capability for the crane, winch, generator, lighting equipment, and rescue accessories.

The vehicle is equipped with 10.00-20 tires, configured as six working tires plus one spare, while the air brake system and power-assisted steering provide practical control during emergency transportation and on-site rescue operations.

2. Powerful 240HP ISUZU Engine

The truck is powered by an ISUZU 6HK1-TCNG40 diesel engine delivering approximately 240HP, providing sufficient power for both road transportation and operation of the vehicle’s specialized rescue equipment.

The ISUZU MLD transmission features 6 forward gears and 1 reverse gear, allowing the driver to manage the vehicle effectively across urban roads, highways, industrial compounds, accident scenes, and other emergency environments.

3. 8-Meter Hydraulic Rescue Crane

The vehicle is equipped with an XCMG SQS02K2 hydraulic crane, which provides a maximum lifting capacity of approximately 5,000kg and a maximum lifting torque of 10.5TM.

The hydraulic boom can extend to approximately 8 meters, with a maximum working height of around 9 meters, while the crane can rotate through approximately 370°. This wide operating range allows rescue crews to lift heavy objects, move damaged equipment, handle obstacles, and assist with recovery operations around accident or disaster scenes.

4. Powerful 7,560kg Traction Winch

A USA Champion N16800XF-24V traction winch is installed to provide heavy-duty pulling capability during vehicle recovery and emergency rescue operations. The winch has a maximum traction force of approximately 16,800lb, equivalent to around 7,560kg.

The winch uses a 13mm-diameter wire rope with a total length of approximately 48 meters, giving the rescue team a useful operating range when recovering disabled vehicles, equipment, or other heavy objects from difficult positions.

5. 10kW Independent Generator

The rescue truck is equipped with a Honda SHT11500 generator with a rated output of approximately 10kW and a 220V/380V electrical configuration.

The generator can provide independent electrical power for rescue equipment, lighting, tools, and other temporary electrical loads at emergency locations where grid power is unavailable or damaged. Electric and manual starting modes provide additional flexibility during field operations.

6. 7.6M Hydraulic/Pneumatic Lifting Lamp

A BOCAN/BSD-Z7041000 lifting lamp is installed to provide high-intensity illumination during nighttime or low-visibility rescue operations. The lighting system uses four 1,000W lamps and can reach approximately 7.6 meters from the top of the vehicle to the ground.

The lamp system can rotate horizontally through approximately 360° and vertically through around 30°, allowing operators to illuminate a large working area around the rescue vehicle. Its pneumatic lifting system and dedicated control cabinet provide convenient deployment during emergency operations.

7. Integrated Emergency Electrical System

The truck uses a 24V electrical system and incorporates independent circuits for its rescue and lighting equipment. Headlamps are installed inside the tool and storage compartments, while the operating dashboard includes lighting switches and indicator lights to improve visibility during nighttime operation.

A set of red and blue flashing warning lights is installed on both sides of the vehicle body, together with a long red warning light mounted on top of the cab and an electronic alarm inside the cab, helping the vehicle remain highly visible when responding to emergencies.

8. Professional Rescue Equipment Storage

The vehicle carries a comprehensive range of firefighting and rescue accessories, including suction hoses, water filters, water collectors, multiple lengths and diameters of water hose, triple-head distributors, adapters, foam guns, straight-stream water guns, foam suction hoses, hose protectors, hose hooks, fire hydrant wrenches, underground hydrant wrenches, suction pipe wrenches, fire axes, rubber hammers, and rechargeable portable lamps.

Dedicated storage compartments help keep the equipment organized and accessible, allowing rescue personnel to quickly locate the appropriate tool when responding to different types of emergency incidents.

9. Water and Foam Firefighting Accessories

The equipment package includes PQ8 and PQ16 foam guns, straight-stream water guns, a pipe-type foam proportioner, and associated foam hoses and fittings, providing the crew with practical options for water and foam-based firefighting.

The system also includes a DN50 foam pipe wrench and other specialized fittings, allowing firefighters to establish and adjust the water or foam delivery system according to the requirements of the incident.

10. Practical Crew Cab and Safety Configuration

The double-line ISUZU cab provides a practical working environment for the emergency response crew and is equipped with air conditioning and central locking for improved comfort and convenience.

The combination of power-assisted steering, air brakes, 24V electrical equipment, emergency warning lights, electronic alarm, and organized rescue equipment storage provides a professional configuration for emergency response teams that may need to operate the vehicle under demanding conditions.

11. Multifunctional Emergency Rescue Capability

The major advantage of the ISUZU 8M Rescue Fire Truck is its multifunctional design, which combines several critical emergency-response capabilities on one vehicle, including heavy lifting, vehicle recovery, electrical power generation, high-intensity scene lighting, water and foam firefighting, and general rescue support.

With its 5-ton hydraulic crane, 7,560kg traction winch, 10kW generator, 7.6-meter lifting lamp, and comprehensive rescue equipment package, the truck can support fire departments, industrial emergency teams, road rescue organizations, construction projects, and disaster-response units that require a versatile heavy-duty rescue platform capable of handling different emergency situations with fewer specialized vehicles.
