Something New For Helo-Based Firefighters

New Partnership Offers Fixed-Tank Firefighting System

Isolair says it's formed a partnership with Rainier Heli-Lift to design, manufacture, and certify the Eliminator II fixed tank fire fighting system for the Kaman K-MAX K-1200.

The carbon fiber tank will have a 700-gallon capacity with a hydraulic hover refill system that will fill the tank in less than one minute. The Eliminator II will deliver all of the capabilities of the cost-effective K-MAX helicopter while incorporating Isolair's proven fire fighting system design.

The system will meet Interagency Airtanker Board requirements and be FAA certified by June 1, 2005. The Eliminator II for the K-MAX K-1200 will be on display at Isolair's booth #2528 at Heli-Expo in Anaheim, CA February 6 thru February 8, 2005.

For 25 years, ISOLAIR has been manufacturing quality helicopter systems for the fire fighting, forestry and aerial application industries with a broad line of certified and custom helicopter equipment. Our knowledgeable sales staff is ready to answer your questions and advise you on the ISOLAIR system that will best meet you company's requirements.
