On Tuesday, the Da Nang fire fighters tested the experimental use of the 1.7 technology fire engine and a fire truck featuring compressed air foam system (CAFS).

The test results showed that the CAFS fire truck, which is manufactured by Japan’s Morita Group, boasts maximum fire extinguishing performance, simple installation, and easy-to-use feature.

Most notably, this truck consumes less water and firefighting foam than similar one. Most notably, the foam used during fire extinguishing performance boasts environmentally-friendly feature, and it can be made from water sourced in rivers, springs and pools. The CAFS fire truck, therefore, is very suitable for firefighting activities in forests, urban areas, and other high places.

Once putting into operation, this modern truck will help local firefighters to enhance the efficiency of their fire extinguishing activities.
