NEW FIRE TRUCKS - FEATURES


Cab Options

 


Everyone knows the firefighting profession is a
dangerous one. What most don't know, is just how much danger is involved in transporting firefighters to and from emergency sites. Nearly one-third of deaths among firefighters on the job occur while they are enroute to or returning from alarms.

Every E-One cab is designed and built with a structural cage design to provide maximum protection and comfort for firefighters. Structural extrusions including sub-frames, a full flange wishbone frame rail, center uprights, and crossbeam extrusions are engineered for optimum performance. Horizontal and vertical supports handle severe vertical loads which can occur in accidents. The perimeter skin material is made of 3/16" aluminum alloy sheet for added strength.


The Cyclone II® cab exceeds the ECE R-29 crash
standard, the European benchmark for crash testing
and safety in the commercial trucking industry.

Roof extrusions frame the top of the cab providing perimeter protection for the firefighters.

E-One's high strength aluminum frame maximizes safety without sacrificing visibility.

As an integral part of the Cyclone® II's structural design, the cab's sub-frame is locked together in front by a "C" channel extrusion, and full width crossmembers in the rear.

The main roof crossbeam extrusion ties together the center uprights and roof perimeter extrusions.

3/16" Aluminum plate welded over the aluminum, extruded structural frame provides additional strength to the cab.

Vertical support extrusions are welded to the sub-frame and the main roof crossbeam, providing superior protection in the event of an accident.
