For more than 150 years, the name Rosenbauer has been synonymous with significant innovations and ground-breaking
technology in the manufacture of firefighting vehicles and extinguishing systems. Today, Rosenbauer is the global market
leader in preventative and defensive fire protection and disaster control. The company offers firefighters a full range of
municipal extinguishing vehicles, aerial ladders, hydraulic platforms, airport, industrial, and specialty vehicles, extinguishing
systems, firefighting equipment, stationary extinguishing systems, and solutions for vehicle and operations management
in the area of telematics.

Many Rosenbauer team members are themselves experienced firefighters. Which is why they know exactly what‘s important
in an operation. This knowledge flows into the development work and is the basis for new pioneering techniques and
solutions – from professionals for professionals.

Chassis: backbone tube with frame

The backbone tube chassis has a frame with central tube construction.
The high torsional rigidity of the tubular frame enables optimal distribution of the
occurring forces. The body, which is mounted on a subframe with cone bearings,
is generally not subjected to torsional forces. In addition, all movable drive
components are installed internally in the frame. They are thus optimally protected
against damage and contamination.

 TIGON – Rosenbauer

For the toughest situations.

Chassis and cab - extremely well matched.

Unconditional perfection

The development goal for the TIGON was: maximum

extinguishing performance regardless of the terrain.
This radical goal required the perfect combination of a
backbone tube chassis designed for off-road use with
the cab. The result: a unique industrial vehicle for the
most challenging operations.

Uncompromising, modular axle technology

Challenging operations require an uncompromising design.

The half-axles are able to move freely. This special axle
design is made possible by a differential gear, which is not
located in the center of the axle like the classic differential
gear, but in the backbone tube frame. Each of these
differentials has a locking function, which gives the TIGON
outstanding mobility on difficult terrain. Depending on the
required design, the chassis can be constructed with four
to five axes.

24 R 21 tires

Wide 24 R 21 tires with an integrated tire pressure system

enable travel on nearly any surface. The tire pressure as
well as the contact area vary depending on the condition
of the surface. The system provides traction long after
conventional tires would have failed. The TIGON can handle
high live loads even in extreme conditions like snow
and sand.

Performance without compromise
Engine and power train – extremely powerful, extremely flexible.
Power multiplied by ride comfort
In terms of the drive, the TIGON makes no compromises.
Rosenbauer relies on a proven Volvo engine for its highly
specialized industrial fire fighting vehicle. The drive is
designed for maximum durability and maximum service life.
With 515 kW/700 hp, the unit also has large power reserves,
which means the engine does not reach its maximum
capacity, even in pump & roll operation. The fully automatic
converter transmission guarantees remarkable ride comfort,
which, among other things, allows emergency crews to focus
on essential tasks at all times.
8
Fire fighting force never rests
Pump & roll - which means extinguishing while driving –
for instance is required for aircraft rescue and fire fighting
vehicles and is also a feature of the TIGON. The special
industrial fire fighting vehicle comes standard with a
Rosenbauer special PTO transmission. The PTO (power
take-off) distributes the force between the pump unit and
power train. This allows the pumps and turrets to be
operated simultaneously while traveling at full speed.

Extremely well protected braking

system

Use on extreme terrain requires

appropriately designed vehicles. This
principle applies particularly to the
braking system. The brakes of the TIGON
are optimally protected with „protected
brake piping.“ The vehicle built for
extreme terrain situations meets the
highest safety standards. Damage to the
braking system while driving on rough
terrain is largely ruled out.

Cab for five

The TIGON‘s cab accommodates five fully-equipped firefighters and impresses with functionality and robustness -
the basis for remarkable, long-lasting durability despite operations under the most difficult conditions.

10
 TIGON – Rosenbauer

Expectations are exceeded.

Cab and body – extremely robust, extremely practical.

Made for each other.

What happens when market-leading extinguishing technology

meets an off-road chassis equipped with trucking genes?
Answer: The expectations for the cab and body are just as
high. No problem. These expectations are not only met, they
are exceeded: the body and cab form an extremely robust
and perfectly matched unit. A unit that lives up to the well-
known Rosenbauer standard.

Impressive construction

The use of laser-cut, bent, and glued profiles results in

an extremely torsion-resistant yet light construction.
This makes it possible to keep the center of gravity of
the vehicle low.

Another advantage of this lightweight design: thanks to its

decreasing dead load, the TIGON can accommodate a bigger
payload. In turn, its adaptability is due to the modular
composition of the individual components. The result is an
extremely flexible fire fighting vehicle suitable for all kinds
of operations: the TIGON.

XXL water tank

As standard, the TIGON 8x8 has a 9,000 l water tank and

a 3,500 l foam tank. The material used is polypropylene,
which is why the tank is also ideal for the transport of
drinking water. And once again, it is the modular design
of the vehicle that brings additional
benefits: the gradual expansion of
the tank capacity up to 25,000 liters.

Everything from a single source.

Extinguishing technology – extremely modern, extremely efficient.

When it says Rosenbauer, it‘s Rosenbauer inside.

This quality promise applies to all Rosenbauer components - in

the field of extinguishing technology, it is double and triple. Here,
the company has come to the forefront with competence and
experience and is regarded as the innovative driving force in
the industry. Rosenbauer also lives up to its reputation with the
TIGON. The vehicle is equipped with a state-of-the-art, integrated
extinguishing system. All components - pump, proportioning
system and turret - are perfectly matched to each other so they
get the most out of every second of use.

Easy to maintain quality

The HYDROMATIC system, completely designed and produced

by Rosenbauer, sets standards in terms of durability and ease of
maintenance. All components are characterized by high efficiency,
which is reflected by maximum reliability in use.

Foam proportioning system HYDROMATIC

Accurate, reliable and modern: the Rosenbauer HYDROMATIC

proportioning system provides the right basis for a wide range
of applications. Industrial applications in particular are
characterized by high demands on the flexibility of the
extinguishing teams due to the large variety of combustible
materials.
The standard built-in HYDROMATIC foam pump G8 with a
delivery rate of 800 l/min at 17 bar (200 gpm at 250 psi)
ensures that the water-foam mixture is always available to
extinguish quickly and efficiently.

For even more extreme demands, a gear pump with a delivery capacity of 1,200 l/min (300 gpm) is available.
In combination with the N130 universal pump, Rosenbauer thus offers maximum striking power. The HYDROMATIC 1200
allows continuous mixing of 1-7% foam concentrate. The proportioning ratio can be set separately for each outlet.

9,500 or 15,000 l/min (2,500 resp.

4,000 gpm) can be applied safely at a
throw range of up to 100 or more than
120 m. The turret is characterized by its
electrical control by means of a pistol
grip control and remote control device.
The ChemCore nozzle allows the use of
a combined powder-water jet.

RM15C bumper turret

With up to 2,000 l/min at 10 bar (500

gpm at 150 psi), the RM15C is a versatile
turret. Its compact design makes it an
excellent bumper turret for large
specialty firefighting vehicles. The joystick
control allows the targeted distribution of
water and foam up to 70 m.

H5 High pressure pump Powder extinguishing system

To be well equipped for all operational scenarios, the TIGON can also
be equipped with a water-saving H5 pump. With up to 500 l/min and 40 bar
pressure (130 gpm at 600 psi), the H5 is the perfect solution for fast
attack scenarios.
The powder extinguishing system is desi-
gned for special applications. The powder
is precisely distributed to the target either
using a rapid intervention hose reel or the
ChemCore nozzle, which is positioned on
the roof.
