@Steven Swenson 1000 Gallon Foam Tank. It will not have a water tank, because it requires a direct supply larger in volume than what a tank can support. Plus, the pump is absolutely massive and takes up a lot of room.
@@fdnyklub go to the Rosenbauer RUclips page and watch the video of the Super Pumper they built for the San Francisco Fire Department...the GPM it could put out puts this one to shame!
You'll find that on doors of practically every FDNY rig, but yes, it's a great idea for safety. Usually it's on the rear set of doors on Engines & Ladders, but looks like it's on the front doors for this rig because there's no rear set of doors for the cab area.
@@erikmoore499 Right on my friend. I think it's an outstanding idea on officers Door, being mostly the traffic approach side. The Rigs around my area, they usually have only reflective strips.
I have only been watching fire videos for a couple of months, first thing I said was 'WOW', 2nd thing was '2 deck guns?' WOW WOW WOW I am such a fire nerd now, I need to see these things up close. WOW
Dang, those are twin 6” discharges on the officers side! To put that into perspective, a normal large diameter discharge is 3” and that supplies the 5” hose either relay pumping or to a truck for an elevated stream
Very cool. Any idea on how this rig's capabilities compare to the original Super Pumper (semi rig with a huge pumping engine in the trailer) that was in service with FDNY back in the 70's?
The original super pumper had a six stage, two position pump. In the parallel (Volume position) it could pump 8800 gpm at 350 psi. In the series (pressure position) it could pump 4400 gpm at 700 psi. This was at draft and is how all fire apparatus pumps are rated. I would have to see the manufacturer ratings plate on this unit to make a fair comparison.
@@fdnyklub Oh ok, so they use their hare suction as hydrant hookups as well. I heard they do do that some places but we learned just use a 5” supply or 3”
Those hard suction hoses are likely not rated for use on hydrants. NYC has plenty of river access; they drafted and had fireboats supply water on 9/11 when the water mains were taken out.
It appears to be a ferrara inundator rig probably 9000gpm. It's been in fdny but I think training is what kept it hush hush .idk. just a guess .it also looks like it's in the quarters of eng238 and ladder106 in Greenpoint Brooklyn. The original super pumper and super tender were in quarters with eng207 and ladder 110 and maxi water unit .

The Old Satelites & Maxi Water rigs didn't have pumps. Just big monitors and large diameter hose. I am surprised that that FDNY didn't go for the " Inundator" with the max size pump. Or was it a weight thing?
@@fdnyklub Thank you show this great idea. FDNY always has very high capacity PUMP station, in my Humble opinion, this is such a great idea if the water system goes down. Not a quack but let's say the BIG water main goes out ( major break in the line) it probably NEW to a person like the watcher, just like me, never seeing the fantastic Rig before. You are great my Fire Department filmer, for showing use all this BEAST of a pumper.
They never really used it and it was 20 years old. It got taken out of service last year I believe. Tanks probably couldn’t take much more, AFFF concentrate is extremely corrosive.
They tell me that different patterns of warning light grab that split second traffic reaction...ps...Germany did brake lite study on auto banhs over 20 yrs and found steady burn lites were safer than any flashing red rear lites...bike studies agree👋
Is the rig next to the Super Pumper, the Tender Unit, curious. So, is the SP Unit assigned on multiple alarm fires (3rd alarm and above) or is it Special called, by the Command Chief on scene?? Anybody know!!
No the rig right next to the super pumper is your generic fdny Engine but this company is just holding the super pumper temporarily cause they’re trading their super pumper with a foam tender and I believe it can babe special called by the chief don’t know about alarms though
Why didn’t they have Seagrave build this? Seagrave quality can’t be matched by any one else. FDNY has known this forever. Seagrave price tag was probably a huge factor. They still make the toughest and safest cabs to.
The Not in Service Super Pumper. Apparently still training. Had an opportunity to use it 1 week ago may not see another fire for a year or 2 before its retired. Shame too.
Gawd dang, FDNY retires a special unit after only 5 years?! We use our engines for 10 years and trucks for 12-15 depending on mileage and engine hrs. This rig will go 20 years before they get another.
@@williamfenner9915 To an extent, yes. But one that's on steroids and capable of putting out extremely high volumes of water. It's kind of like a refinery type truck in a way.
@@speedball10169 OK. Where I live they don't have anything like that. They used to have a older pickup truck that they mounted two deck guns on. Now all of the equipment have deck guns on the trucks. If it gets really bad they will give the airport a call, and they bring one of those trucks to the scene.
Not really it can be used a lot for defense attacks that the normal deck guns can’t control the only down side is that thing needs like 3 engines just to run
In a high rise fire, the Super Pumper would also be very helpful, because it could push sufficient water volume and water pressure as high as necessary!

There's a skyler fire video with it flowing water
Nothing can ever replace the Mack super tanker.
YES I remember those great MACK Rigs was it not like (3) different type Rigs. One just a massive Pump house on the trailer.
What a beast! The only thing missing is a mechanical Q siren, maybe a few more warning lights. Impressive!
Lol ofc the Q siren can never go wrong with that
I have only been watching fire videos for a couple of months, first thing I said was 'WOW', 2nd thing was '2 deck guns?' WOW WOW WOW I am such a fire nerd now, I need to see these things up close. WOW

I don't know, but I'd bet the tractor-drawn Mack could flow far more volume. The specs I've seen were 10,000 gpm or 8,800 at 350psi.
What’s the use for the hard suction hoses, is there places in NYC that you can only draft rather than actual hydrant hookup?
Yes there are usually when there is a high alarm fire the operating engine company would connect their hard sleeve line to one of the hydrants
@@fdnyklub Oh ok, so they use their hare suction as hydrant hookups as well. I heard they do do that some places but we learned just use a 5” supply or 3”

What's the GPM and tank size? Impressive piece of equipment and nice pump panel set up.
5250 gpm
3000 tank size
It’s brand new but a 2020 model , very cool rig
Yup!
How often will they use this?
I am surprised that they didn't have a bed of 7 1/4-inch hose to use as supply line.
How much water can this monster move?
So how does this compare to the tractor trailer super pumper of years ago?

What's the pump manufacturer and GPM's??
Who makes FDNY fire trucks???
Why does FDNY still carry all of that hard suction? How often are the drafting?
ISO Insurance under righters require that the engines have capability to draft as I was told.
SHi~~~t that engineer would need a degree in computers to work that !! what a animal cant wait to see it in full power...
Whats the difference between this and the ‘Satellite’ rigs they’ve had for years?
This one pumps double the amount of water than the satellites and is really powerful for any defensive attacks
5,250 ? well worth the title .. more compact size than the original - but keeps the concept alive. well done..
Liked and shared 🧑🏻👍🏻🚒
Great looking truck. So this unit only carries two firefighters?
Not only 2 this rig would go with its engine company to whatever job it’s needed as as the engine company is trained with it
@1:38 Already has a scratch on it
Cool! Has it had a run yet?
No because it’s not in service yet it’s just being kept at that house for now
@@fdnyklub thanks
Can a city hydrant supply enough water for this engines maximum GPM out put. Or do they have to draft from the River and feed a dry hydrant system
Nope they would need like 5-7 engines alone just to power it
My old E-1 never looked that good
that is one nice truck man.
It is!
forgot to put "RARE" "1ST VIDEO!"
Not really rare anymore cause anyone can come see it and it’s not first video

They never really used it and it was 20 years old. It got taken out of service last year I believe. Tanks probably couldn’t take much more, AFFF concentrate is extremely corrosive.

Later during 2023 it most likely will be

Needs to be renamed the "Super Duper Pumper". Missed it on this one FDNY.
Nope.
Whose house is it in?
Currently being kept at 106 truck until they’re ready to give it to the house that wants it
that ringing😭
but it’s a nice rig tho
Why is this needed? And if it is needed, why only have 1?
Is this a 'doomsday' piece of equipment, we hope it will never be needed, but it is available?
Ha, way too heavy on electronics. Bet this has a lot of down time. I remember when everything was mechanical and it just plain worked.
nice catch, but that rig is a waste of money, gonna sit and look pretty

Not really it can be used a lot for defense attacks that the normal deck guns can’t control the only down side is that thing needs like 3 engines just to run

In a high rise fire, the Super Pumper would also be very helpful, because it could push sufficient water volume and water pressure as high as necessary!
Mack was better
1.) Light patterns are awful
2.) They need to have new decals made as they have these incorrect, this is Super Pumper 2. Far cry from the original
Too many lights, it’s annoying
That’s how fire trucks are
Weak video… how about some information!
Nice. Anywhere one can get the specs on it.
Anyone know the GPM on this rig ? Does it have CAV's
"5,250-gpm US Fire Pump and a Williams Fire & Hazard Control 2 x 8 Ambassador top-mounted deck gun, wireless remote control, 8,000-gpm rated"
it does not have CAFS. CAFS is designed to be flowing to low pressure handlines. Foam would not work at all with the GPM’s this truck moves.
