Foam fire trucks are composed of an automotive chassis and specialized equipment mounted on it. Both domestically and internationally produced foam fire trucks mostly use Class II universal automotive chassis provided by vehicle manufacturers. The specialized equipment mainly includes a power take-off, water and foam liquid tanks, equipment compartments, pump rooms, fire pumps, vacuum pumps, foam proportioning systems, and fire nozzles. Relevant information about the automotive chassis is as follows: 1. Introduction: The automotive chassis consists of four parts: the transmission system, the running gear, the steering system, and the braking system. The chassis functions to support and install the vehicle's engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the vehicle, receiving the engine's power to enable movement and ensuring normal operation. 2. Maintenance guidelines: To maintain the chassis in winter, thorough cleaning and rust-proof treatment are required. First, the chassis must be thoroughly cleaned. If there is excessive mud or dirt on the chassis, a degreasing cleaner should be used to wash it, revealing the original "color" of the chassis, after which rust-proof treatment can begin.

What is the ABS system?

ABS system is the Anti-lock Braking System. Below are the related introductions about the ABS system: Advantages of the ABS system: When the wheel is about to reach the next lock point, the pressure of the brake fluid causes the airbag to act repeatedly, which can act 60-120 times in one second, equivalent to continuously braking and releasing, similar to mechanical intermittent braking. Therefore, the ABS system can prevent loss of steering control and wheel skidding during emergency braking, ensuring that the wheels are not locked during braking. This prevents the tires from rubbing against the ground at a single point, thereby increasing friction and achieving a braking efficiency of over 90%. Characteristics of the ABS system: The anti-lock braking system can improve the safety factor of a vehicle during emergency braking. In other words, cars without ABS are more likely to experience wheel lock-up when emergency braking is applied in critical situations, meaning the steering wheel cannot be turned. This increases the risk factor and can easily lead to serious consequences.

How to Turn Off the Constant Alarm Sound of an Electric Vehicle?

To turn off the constant alarm sound of an electric scooter, follow these steps: 1. Turn off the power of the electric scooter; 2. Unscrew the bolts around the seat, remove the seat to expose the battery and internal wiring; 3. Pull out the wiring, locate the alarm (usually a round black device), and trace the buzzer's wiring to find its connector; 4. Wrap the connector with insulating tape to prevent electric leakage, then separate it to deactivate the alarm. The electric scooter alarm is designed to alert the owner when the vehicle is unattended, helping to prevent theft. Electric scooters, also known as "electric vehicles," are purely electric motor vehicles powered by batteries (storage batteries).

What is the normal tire pressure in kPa?

Tire pressure is generally considered normal between 230 to 250 kPa. If the car is fully loaded (5 people), it's more suitable to adjust the tire pressure to around 2.5 bar; for two passengers, a tire pressure of 2.3 bar is also normal. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car, and damage to the engine can lead to the end of the car's life. The tire pressure is the blood pressure of the car, and the level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power. Tire pressure is an indicator of the car's load capacity, and the size of the car's load depends on the level of tire pressure.

What does the yellow exclamation mark light on the car mean?

There are three types of yellow exclamation mark lights on the car: 1. A yellow bracket with an exclamation mark in the middle: This is the tire pressure monitoring indicator, indicating that the pressure in one of the tires is insufficient. You should check the tire pressure at a tire shop or a 4S store. 2. A yellow gear with an exclamation mark in the middle: This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating that there is a problem with the transmission, or the transmission lubricant is below the normal range or needs to be replaced. 3. A yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle: This is the traction control indicator, also known as the ground adhesion control system indicator. This light turns on to remind you to turn off the traction control system. If this light stays on while the traction control system is active, it indicates a problem with the TCS.
