Austin Engineering’s unique Westech Stairway Access Tank® module, unlike traditional water tank modules, has larger baffle openings with a direct line of travel to improve safety when performing confined space maintenance work.
Its innovative baffle design reduces surging and improves truck stability by up to 18%, increasing operator safety.
Features include:
Austin Engineering’s JEC range of water tanks are designed with an innovative baffle which virtually eliminates the effects of surging and allows for a lighter-weight tank. This results in additional payload and less operating cost.
Tank access is ergonomic and safe and the large fill port, located in a recessed channel behind the water dam, ensures that any overfill flows away from the cab and deck to the rear of the truck.
Features include:
Suitable for 6 x 6 road articulated or off‑highway trucks, our water tank modules, for dust suppression or firefighting trucks, are heavy duty in their construction.
Available in 14,000 to 180,000 litre capacity, all spray equipment brands are available along with our Water Wise system. Our water tanks are designed and manufactured under the JEC and Westech brands.
The two styles of water tank have various features and benefits including carrying additional payload, being light weight and offering increased stability. We will assist you to select the style of water tank which best suits your unique application.
Both the JEC and Westech water tanks are able to be mounted on a variety of off‑highway truck chassis maintaining correct axle splits for load distribution.
