Fire department's genuine nightmare or menace
Wilhelmsburg Acquires TMF 70, Germany's Largest Telescopic Mast Firefighting Vehicle
Wilhelmsburg, a city in Germany, has recently acquired the TMF 70, a specialized telescopic mast firefighting vehicle that is the largest of its kind in professional fire departments across the country. This significant piece of equipment, costing 1.6 million euros, will play a crucial role in firefighting and rescue operations, particularly in tall structures and large industrial facilities.
The TMF 70 boasts a telescopic mast that extends up to 70 meters, making it ideal for high-rise fires such as those in container cranes at Altenwerder and Waltershof terminals. Equipped with the ability to deliver large volumes of water or foam through the mast nozzle, this vehicle ensures effective fire suppression in tall structures or large industrial setups.
Mounted on a heavy-duty chassis with stabilizers, the TMF 70 ensures safe operation at full mast extension. With a length of over 12 meters and five axles, the vehicle is designed for maneuverability and stability.
The TMF 70 falls under the supervision of the Environmental and Technical Watch of the fire department in Wilhelmsburg. Acquired primarily to address the southern Elbe area, the TMF 70 is expected to play a key role in fires at refineries or other industrial facilities due to its wide mast range.
However, there is currently a lack of information regarding the specific applications of the TMF 70 in German fire departments or its uses in industrial fires or high-rise container cranes at Altenwerder and Waltershof. Further research may be conducted to gather more detailed or updated information from official fire department or manufacturer sources.
