Aerial

Three (3) section heavy duty ladder
-12 to +72 degrees operational envelope
100’ vertical reach at only 72 degree elevation
98’ horizontal reach at 0 degrees elevation
1250 pound dry tip load
500 pound tip load while flowing 2000 GPM
Each aerial is manufactured in accordance with NFPA 1901.
A professional third party testing company performs a flow test and structural inspection on all aerials, assuring an NFPA mandated 2:1 Safety Factor
Egress handrails stay in contact with both the aerial fly section and platform, allowing easy entrance into the platform, even when climbing at the maximum 72 degree angle.
All Ferrara platforms use a mil-spec internal corrosion coating on all structural members that are internally exposed to the atmosphere. This coating constitutes a 20-year internal corrosion warranty for the platforms aerial structure.
All platform waterways are hot-dipped galvanized, polished and then chrome plated on the exterior for superior strength and durability. The waterway carries a 10-year warranty that includes the seals.
All Ferrara aerials feature a cab to body collision interlock, preventing the aerial or platform from being lowered into the cab or body by the operator.

Platform

Generous 21 square foot interior work area allows for up to four firefighters to move easily around the platform.
Platform leveling system always levels to earth, which reduces additional hydraulic lines needed for master/slave type systems that level to the chassis. This system works off a gyro, which means the platform remains level regardless if the apparatus is positioned on a severe grade.
Bi-fold, outward opening doors allow clear, 24” unobstructed entrance into and out of the platform
The platform basket is designed in four (4) modular sections, so if it is damaged, replacement is less costly.
Single or Dual monitors available, either Elkhart, Akron or TFT
Our most popular platform options include a 500 pound capacity rappelling arm/stokes basket mount and a parapet ladder bracket.
