Key Features
1. AUTOMATIC CHOKE SYSTEM FOR CARBURETOR
Engine and air temperature sensors auto-adjust the choke valve. The engine starts instantly via one switch and reaches full throttle immediately. The diaphragm rod prevents malfunction from moisture or dust. Integrated bimetal heaters improve long-term maintenance access.
2. ADVANCED FUEL FEEDING SYSTEM
Shibaura’s separate fuel supply system eliminates the need for manual mixing. An oil-level sensor monitors the tank in real time and triggers an automatic engine shutdown if oil runs out, protecting the system from damage.
3. SHIBAURA’S UNIQUE WATER SHUT-OFF VALVE
The integrated 5-valve shut-off system is vacuum-activated and allows single-button drainage of water from the vacuum chamber. Simplifies operation and reduces prep time during emergency response.
4. AIR-COOLED ENGINE FIRE PUMP (OTHER MODELS)
While this model is water-cooled, Shibaura also manufactures the largest variety of air-cooled fire pumps in Japan, offering alternative configurations across different units.
5. WATER-COOLED SYSTEM
The advanced radiator system recirculates coolant without discharging water. Prevents waste, eliminates wet ground hazards, and maintains consistent engine temperature—ideal for dry deployment zones and extended operations.
6. VACUUM PUMP
High-efficiency, low-wear rotary system with fast suction response and simplified maintenance requirements. Built for field durability under load.
7. QUICK VALVE
45° short-stroke discharge valve provides fast, intuitive one-handed operation.
8. OILLESS VACUUM PUMP
High-performance carbon fiber blades eliminate oily discharge—environmentally safe and maintenance-friendly.
9. AUTO COOLANT CIRCULATION SYSTEM (NICE VALVE)
In the event of low coolant levels, the engine will automatically shut down via RRS (Rapid Response Safety) protocol. This closed-loop system helps conserve water and enhances user safety.
