12、e Apparatus 2016 Edition This edition of NFPA 1906, Standard for Wildland Fire Apparatus, was prepared by the Technical Committee on Fire Department Apparatus. It was issued by the Standards Council on May 26, 2015, with an effective date of June 15, 2015, and supersedes all previous editions. This
13、document has been amended by one or more Tentative Interim Amendments (TIAs) and/or Errata. See “Codes & Standards” at www.nfpa.org for more information. This edition of NFPA 1906 was approved as an American National Standard on June 15, 2015. Origin and Development of NFPA 1906 The rst edition of N
14、FPA 1906, Standard for Wildland Fire Apparatus, was published in 1995 to provide a standard for apparatus that are basically designed and deployed to combat res in wildland. The document covered apparatus with pumps ranging in size from 20 gpm to 250 gpm (76 L/min to 950 L/min) and water tanks with
15、a capacity of 125 gal (473 L) or more. Requirements were also provided for the rst time for foam proportioning systems using Class A foam as a re suppressant agent and for compressed air foam systems (CAFS). The apparatus covered in the standard included built-to-specication apparatus and re-ghting
16、packages designed to be slipped onto a vehicle chassis. In the 2001 edition, the requirements for low-voltage electrical systems, including the emergency warning systems, were brought in line with the requirements in NFPA 1901, Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus. The chapter on pumps was reorgan
17、ized to provide requirements for four types of pumps, with the range of sizes changed to include pumps from 10 gpm (38 L/min) to 500 gpm (1900 L/min). The allowable minimum size on water tanks was lowered to 50 gal (190 L), and the chapter on line-voltage systems was removed. The document was also u
18、pdated in other areas where appropriate to make the requirements consistent with those in NFPA 1901. The 2006 edition was a general updating of the document, including making requirements consistent with those in NFPA 1901 where appropriate. It added requirements for what the manufacturer certicatio
19、n of test results must include and for better illumination and signage for controls, switches, instruction plates, gauges, and instruments. This edition also introduced the concept of estimated in-service weight as a basis for measuring certain stability requirements and linked the maximum top speed
20、 of the apparatus to the tire manufacturers ratings. It also required more head height at seating positions and the use of red seat belts if available. The 2006 edition also reorganized the requirements for water pumps installed on the wildland re apparatus into seven categories and updated the requ
21、irements for bafing water tanks to better address smaller water tanks. The standard required type testing of foam systems followed by individualized testing of each installation. Two annexes were added, one to provide an equipment size and weight chart, the other to provide guidelines for rst-line a
22、nd reserve re apparatus. Finally, the document was reorganized according to the Manual of Style for NFPA Technical Committee Documents. The 2012 edition was a complete reorganization of the document, to follow the same format and style as NFPA 1901, Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus. It include
23、d a new category of wildland re apparatus titled Wildland Mobile Water Supply Apparatus, giving specic requirements for vehicles equipped with a minimum of 1000 gal (4000 L) water tanks designed to operate off-road. This revision also included appropriate updates consistent with those requirements i
24、n NFPA 1901. The 2016 edition of NFPA 1906 includes a new chapter on the design of wildland re crew carriers specically for the purpose of transporting wildland re crews. It also includes a new chapterWILDLAND FIRE APPARATUS 1906-2 2016 Edition on ultra-high pressure (UHP) re pumps and associated eq
25、uipment due to the increased use of UHP re pumps. This edition provides guidance to manufacturers and purchasers as to the design, testing, and performance of UHP re pumps with a rated discharge pressure of 1100 psi (7600 kPa) or greater. The 2016 edition of NFPA 1906 also introduces a new design co
26、ncept of the on-board pump-and-roll reghting position in Chapter 14. This is a seated, belted, and protected position that allows for safe and effective use of pump-and-roll operations in situations where walk along-side pump-and-roll operations are not practical. The Committee also has claried the
27、requirements within Chapter 16 for pump controls and has added updated tables to the chapter for the engine speed advancement interlock test. Additional changes have been made throughout the document to remove redundant language and to clarify requirements.COMMITTEE PERSONNEL 1906-3 2016 Edition Tec
