4-stroke engine model.
Light weight with Up-to-date technology.
By optimizing the crankshaft and intake manifold, we have managed to reduce 12kg(13.5%) without sacrificing engine performance. The new Ball Valve Outlet has been redesigned to reduce the strength you need when opening the valve after priming.
The bottom cowl-less design improves serviceability and reduces tempratures inside the cowl. In addition, each gauge has been relocated to improve visibility. Furthermore, by eliminating the drain and air valves on the discharge valve, the operation of water drainage has been simplified.
The engine speed governor function is now fully electrically controlled which provides flawless and smooth operation through the dial. Wireless self-diagnostic function with the use of Wi-Fi Diagnostic Tool* enables you to connect your smartphone to the ECU allowing you to check the engine condition and error codes or if any as for the daily check-up and maintenace. *Wi-Fi Diagnostic Tool is sold separately.
There is a model that available for sale in EU, China, Canada and America.
Small and compact with unmatched pump performance
Engine 198mL Tohatsu 2-stroke, air-cooled gasoline engine Authorized output11.7PS (8.6kW)Pump performance 525 liter /min. at 0.6MPa 250 liter /min. at 0.8MPa Priming Rotary vane vacuum pump Dry Weight46kg
Engine and pump castings are made of anti-corrosive aluminum-alloy to reduce weight and prolong working life. The pump can be carried on a fireman’s back for limited distances when properly mounted on a backpack. When mounted on a truck, the compact design allows for more locker space for other fire equipments. It is suitable for forest fire fighting.
Both engine and pump are designed specifically for fire pumps by TOHATSU ensuring high pump performance for its class.
Pressure and vacuum gauges, throttle dial and switches are grouped on the control panel.
Example of use in automatic relay operation (No operator is required at the relay pump). The relay pumping line with VF63AS-R can be extended endlessly. When the water hits the VF63AS-R, engine and pump function are automatically started which means that no one need to be on and operate the pump pressure. When the water from master pump stops, the VF63AS-R is also stopped automatically. It is fully-automatically controlled and providing new solution for forest/wild land fire and long distance water transfer action.
