In the aftermath of the recent storm, water trucks parked outside many communities for people to fill up water bottles. This helped families by providing water to drink, bathe with, and wash dishes until pipes were repaired. While water covers over 70% of the earth not all of it is readily accessible to all locations. They carry thousands of gallons of water and disperse them using a PTO water truck pump.

Our HiVol® Water Tank comes equipped with an in-cab controlled water cannon that allows the dispersement of water from 150 to 200 feet with absolute control and accuracy. Long-wearing, specialized spray heads are rear-mounted and operate independently so you can run one, all, or any number in between to meet your needs. The entire tank plumbing system utilizes off-the-shelf Victaulic®/Gruvolk® style fittings throughout for easy maintenance. And you get the best value for dust control by building on a new or used chassis. Osco trucks are engineered for quality, durability, and performance and are also constructed to handle all types of terrain. Water pump, hydraulic motor, reservoir, relief valve, and rear spray bar are pre-mounted on the rear deck.

After the prescribed burn is completed, a water truck will spray the perimeter of the cell to extinguish any smoldering flames. Water quality will be monitored and confirmed acceptable before the release of water from the cell to the Tres Rios Overbank Wetlands. That will include allowing sufficient time for any fire debris to settle out and completion of a water quality sampling plan.

A 2000 5000 gallon water truck water truck is commonly installed to a single axle chassis such as a Ford, Kenworth, Peterbilt, or International. Our 3000 gallon, 4000 gallon, and 5000 gallon water truck gallon water trucks require a tandem axle chassis. Berkeley™ B3Z and B4 (Berkley), Banjo™, and other centrifugal water pumps can be power take-off (PTO) driven or hydraulic driven.
