New fire tenders deployed
The new fire tenders have been deployed for the Port Fire Service to respond to fire incidents within the port premises. Mumbai Port handles petroleum products, chemicals, cargo vessels, warehouses, oil jetties and marine infrastructure, where quick fire response is an important safety requirement.
The fire tenders are equipped with high-pressure monitors with long-range water throw, helping firefighters attend to incidents from a safer distance in heat and smoke conditions.

The vehicles are fitted with multi-pressure fire pumps. The normal pressure range is 2,850 to 3,000 LPM at 7 to 10 bar, while the high-pressure range is 250 to 400 LPM at 30 to 35 bar.
The fire tenders also have large water and foam tanks, allowing firefighting operations to continue for a longer period before replenishment. This will help during emergencies at berths, vessels, storage areas and other port locations.
