About this file
This document is a Requirement Compliance Checklist for a federal contract solicitation (1240BD26Q0088) for the purchase of a slide-in water tank system designed for dump truck bed integration.
The slide-in water tank must meet specific dimensional and performance requirements. The complete system, including all plumbing, pumps, reels, and frames, must fit within maximum boundaries of 216 inches long by 72 inches wide by 66 inches high, with the main tank body conforming to a 180-inch interior bed length. The tank must provide a minimum operational fluid capacity of 2,600 gallons with a target performance goal of 3,000 gallons. The tank shell and primary structural fabrication must be constructed of a minimum 3/16-inch thick mild steel or stainless steel, equipped with engineered internal baffles for surge control and lateral stability. The unit requires a front-and-rear face anchoring system with a minimum of four heavy-duty structural tie-down loops or D-rings welded to the front and rear faces, plus a complete cargo securement kit with certified transport chains and binders compliant with 49 CFR § 393.100. An integrated, self-contained loading and unloading support stand or mechanical jacks capable of supporting the fully evacuated weight is required for independent off-vehicle storage without external heavy machinery.
The pump and engine specifications mandate a high-performance, single-stage centrifugal transfer/fire pump delivering minimum 110 GPM at 100 PSI and 430 GPM at 25 PSI, powered by a dedicated auxiliary engine of minimum 23 horsepower (V-Twin gasoline or equivalent diesel) with electric key start, integrated 12V charging alternator/battery, and minimum 5-gallon independent fuel source. Hydrostatic, hydraulic, or vehicle Power Take-Off configurations are strictly prohibited. The system must include an integrated priming system for self-loading from environmental water sources, a top-fill or internal-fill pipeline with minimum 2.5-inch diameter featuring standard swivel female NST fire hose connection and anti-backflow mechanism, and a heavy-duty steel brush guard protecting any components extending past the truck bed's rear edge. Plumbing and discharge systems must include a multi-nozzle rear spray system controlled pneumatically via the host truck's service/brake air supply, one 2.5-inch primary discharge valve with manual quarter-turn ball valve, one 1.5-inch auxiliary discharge valve, one 4-inch butterfly dump valve for rapid gravity evacuation, and an integrated 1.5-inch by 50-foot heavy-duty utility hose reel pre-plumbed to the high-pressure discharge side. The complete unit must be fully manufactured, plumbed, pressure-tested for leaks, and made available for final inspection within sixty calendar days from receipt of award.

1. Dimensional, Structural, & Anchoring Specifications
Specification Requirement Details Comply Equal Notes / Deviances / Dimensions
Physical Dimensions & Compatibility
Must slide into and safely operate within the dump truck bed. Maximum overall system exterior boundaries (including plumbing, pumps, reels, and frames) must fully fit within a maximum overall package boundary of 216” Long × 72” Wide × 66” High. (Note: The main water tank body must conform to the 180-inch interior bed length. The contractor is explicitly permitted to let the extended perimeter subframe, auxiliary pump assembly, plumbing manifold, and rear safety brush guard overhang past the rear edge of the dump bed floor up to this maximum total system length of 216 inches).
Fluid Capacity Must feature a minimum 2,600-gallon operational fluid capacity, with an engineered target performance goal of 3,000 gallons.
Contractors must maximize fluid volume within the strict dimensional limits outlined in Section A.
Material Construction
Tank shell and primary structural fabrication must be constructed of a minimum 3/16-inch thick mild steel or stainless steel.
Surge Control Equipped with engineered internal baffles (both lateral and longitudinal) to control liquid surge and maintain vehicle stability on rough roads.
Structural Anchoring System
To accommodate the tight 72-inch interior bed width, the unit must utilize a front-and-rear face anchoring system. The tank must be integrated onto a heavy-duty, full-length steel perimeter subframe featuring a minimum of four (4) heavy-duty structural tie-down loops or D-rings welded explicitly onto the front face (facing the truck cab) and rear face (at the tailgate assembly) of the system.
Securement Hardware Kit
The contractor must supply a complete, matching cargo securement kit consisting of certified transport chains and over-center lever binders or turnbuckles rated to secure the fully evacuated weight of the unit to ensure full compliance with federal cargo securement rules under 49 CFR § 393.100.

Specification Requirement Details Equal Notes / Deviances / Dimensions
Loading & Unloading Support Stand
Equipped with an integrated, self-contained structural storage stand, support system, or integrated mechanical jacks capable of supporting the fully evacuated weight of the unit to allow for independent loading, unloading, and stable off-vehicle storage without requiring external heavy machinery (such as cranes, forklifts, or excavators).

2. Pump, Engine, & Performance Metrics
Dimensions
Water Pump Performance
High-performance, single-stage centrifugal transfer/fire pump constructed of corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy or bronze matching or exceeding:
• High-Pressure Output: Minimum 110 GPM at
100 PSI.
• High-Volume Output: Minimum 430 GPM at 25
PSI.
Power Source & Engine
Entirely self-powered by a dedicated, integrated auxiliary engine (minimum 23 Horsepower, V-Twin gasoline or equivalent diesel) featuring an electric key start, an integrated 12V charging alternator/battery, and an independent fuel source (minimum 5-gallon capacity).
Hydrostatic, hydraulic, or vehicle Power Take-Off (PTO) driven pump configurations are strictly prohibited.
Self-Loading & Priming
Equipped with an integrated priming system (exhaust vector primer, hand primer, or 12V electric priming pump) capable of pulling a suction lift to self-load/draft from a static environmental water source.
Hydrant Fill Point
Integrated top-fill or internal-fill pipeline, minimum 2.5-inch diameter, equipped with a standard swivel female National Standard Thread (NST) fire hose connection and an anti-backflow mechanism.
Auxiliary Equipment Protection
If any portion of the auxiliary engine, pump assembly, hose reel, or plumbing manifold extends past the rear edge of the host truck's dump bed floor, an integrated, heavy-duty steel tubular brush guard, bumper wrap-around cage, or protective structural shroud is strictly required. This guard must be welded directly to the subframe to protect all exposed mechanical components from flying debris or backing-up impacts during off-road operation.
