ENGINE EXHAUST SYSTEM
The exhaust system shall meet current EPA standards.
ENGINE EXHAUST ACCESSORIES
The exhaust system shall be modified to accept a Nederman 45-degree exhaust extraction system to
match what the Fargo Fire Department uses.
ENGINE EXHAUST WRAP
The exhaust tubing between the engine turbo and the diesel particulate filter (DPF) shall be wrapped with
a thermal cover in order to retain the necessary heat for DPF regeneration. The exhaust wrap shall also
help protect surrounding components from radiant heat which can be transferred from the exhaust.
TRANSMISSION
The drive train shall include an Allison Gen IV-E model EVS 3000 torque converting, automatic
transmission which shall include electronic controls. The transmission shall feature two (2) 10-bolt PTO
pads located on the converter housing.
The transmission shall include two (2) internal oil filters and Castrol TranSynd™ synthetic TES 295
transmission fluid which shall be utilized in the lubrication of the EVS transmission. An electronic oil
level sensor shall be included with the readout located in the shift selector.
The Gen IV-E transmission shall include prognostic diagnostic capabilities. These capabilities shall
include the monitoring of the fluid life, filter change indication, and transmission clutch maintenance.
TRANSMISSION MODE PROGRAMMING
The transmission, upon start-up, will automatically select a four (4) speed operation. The fifth speed over
drive shall be available with the activation of the mode button on the shifting pad.
TRANSMISSION FEATURE PROGRAMMING
The EVS group package number 127 shall contain the 198 vocational package in consideration of the
duty of this apparatus as a pumper. This package shall incorporate an automatic neutral with selector
override. This feature commands the transmission to neutral when the park brake is applied, regardless of
drive range requested on the shift selector. This requires re-selecting drive range to shift out of neutral for
the override.
This package shall be coupled with the use of a split shaft PTO and incorporate pumping circuits. These
circuits shall be used allowing the vehicle to operate in the fourth range lockup while operating the pump
mode due to the 1 to 1 ratio through the transmission, therefore the output speed of the engine is the input
speed to the pump. The pump output can be easily calculated by using this input speed and the drive ratio
of the pump itself to rate the gallons of water the pump can provide.
ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL INDICATOR
The transmission fluid shall be monitored electronically and shall send a signal to activate a warning in
the instrument panel when levels fall below normal.
