Pump Skid Unit - Forest Pac

CET’s Forest Pac is a compact drop-in skid unit built for wildland and urban-interface response—combining a 200 USG baffled polypropylene tank with a 6.5 HP Honda-driven twin-impeller pump, lighted control panel, electric rewind hose reel, and multi-outlet manifold for quick, efficient water delivery from a pickup, trailer, or apparatus body.

Description

Designed as a one-piece “slip-in” assembly for a truck bed, trailer, or body, the CET Forest Pac pairs a rugged 200 USG modular polypropylene tank (UV-stabilized, non-corrosive, with internal baffles and a rear sight gauge) with a high-performance, Honda-powered, 2-stage centrifugal pump package. The system is configured for fast deployment on structural, vehicle, and wildfire incidents, and includes a lighted pump control panel for night ops, an electric low-profile rewind reel with 100 ft of 1" booster hose, a 2.5" tank-to-pump valve, and multiple discharge options. It’s a proven approach used by municipal/industrial departments and forestry authorities across a wide range of unit sizes.
