New engine for Buffalo Grove FD

From the Fire Service, Inc. Facebook page:

Congratulations and a big thank you to Chief Mike Baker, Deputy Chief Bill Wagner, and the apparatus committee of the Buffalo Grove Fire Department for their recent acquisition of a brand-new E-ONE Typhoon eMAX rescue pumper! This is the fourth E-ONE unit to join the department’s fleet, and it's packed with top-of-the-line features designed to enhance response efficiency and safety. The new apparatus includes:

• Cummins L9 450 HP engine

• Allison EVS3000 transmission

• Extruded aluminum body with a 2-arm hydraulic ladder rack

• 780-gallon water tank

• E-ONE 1500-GPM pump

• Whelen emergency warning light package

• Smart Power 10kW hydraulic generator

• Wil-burt light tower

• FireTech HiViz LED scene lights

We’re thrilled to see the Buffalo Grove FD continue to invest in cutting-edge equipment that supports their vital work in the community. We can’t wait to see this unit in action and are proud to have played a part in its arrival.

Wear Resistant Steel Plate

Wear-resisting Steel Plate is composed of low Carbon Steel Plate and alloy wear-resisting layer. When working, the matrix provides comprehensive properties such as strength, toughness and plasticity of resisting external forces, and the alloy wear-resistant layer provides wear-resistant properties that meet the requirements of specified working conditions.

Wear-resisting steel alloy wear-resisting layer and base plate are metallurgical combination. By means of special equipment and automatic welding process, the high-hardness self-protecting alloy wire is uniformly welded on the substrate, and the composite layers are one to two or even more. In the composite process, due to the different shrinkage ratio of the alloy, uniform transverse cracks appear, which is a significant feature of the wear-resistant steel plate.

The wear resistant layer of the alloy is mainly chromium alloy, while manganese, molybdenum, niobium, nickel and other alloys are added. The microhardness of carbide can reach above hv1700-2000, and the surface hardness can reach hrc58-62. Carbide alloy has a strong stability at high temperature, maintain a high hardness, but also has a good oxidation resistance, within 500℃ completely normal use.

The wear-resistant layer has narrow channel (2.5-3.5mm), wide channel (8-12mm), curve (S, W), etc. It is mainly composed of chromium alloy, while manganese, molybdenum, niobium, nickel, boron and other alloy components are added. With 40-60% carbide content, the microhardness can reach above HV1700 and the surface hardness can reach hrc58-62.
