AMKUS ION extrication equipment Yellowstone National Park

Specifications

Purchase of AMKUS ION extrication equipment Brand Name or Equal

The structural fire department needs to complete its purchase of upgraded battery powered extrication equipment to ensure all districts have the necessary equipment to save lives due to an increase in automobile accidents over the last decade. To accomplish this goal, two more sets need to be purchased. This will provide coverage at Grant for the south end of the park and for Tower for the Northeast corner. The current battery power equipment used by the Yellowstone Fire Department is made by AMKUS and the desire is to continue with this brand.

The ION equipment made by AMKUS provides many benefits to the user. There is less equipment to maintain due to power provided by battery operation instead of a gas-powered hydraulic unit. The AMKUS ION provides an all-metal construction, side mounted 60V DEWALT FLEXVOLT battery made in the United States of America.

The selected vendor must be able to deliver this equipment in person and provide training to Yellowstone National Park firefighters.
