1:40 The Einsatzleitwagen (command vehicle) 2 of the Professional Fire Brigade Karlsruhe for large-scale emergencies, with radio rooms, mobile IT and staff meeting rooms on board. This fire brigade has also the responsibility for handling problems at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), formerly known as the national nuclear research center Karlsruhe.
2:40 Scania TLF of the works fire brigade industry park Hanau, with a Rosenbauer extinguishing lance "Stinger" and CO2-based dry extinguishing system. Because of being a works fire brigade vehicle it shows the "2222" emergency number instead of the normal "112".
7:45 Another works fire brigade in Wiesbaden, demonstration at a open house day at InfraServ Wiesbaden. 8:45 seems to be a real operation of the same unit.
9:40 And another works fire brigade, this time from Frankfurt-Höchst, also during an open house presentation. 10:45 Same presentation, but this vehicle belongs to Frankfurt Airport. 11:40 Similar, but not same unit at the airport.
In my opinion, another vehicle has been forgotten here: The BASF plant fire department has had an aerosol fire engine since 1998. It is based on an 18-ton chassis. The compressed air is generated by two Turbomeca Larzac 04 jet turbines. This generates a compressor equivalent output of 27 megawatts, which makes it possible to atomize 6000 liters of water per minute and carry it 120 metres.
Hi, greetings fron North Germany. I am new on your channel. But I noticed that you use the word "moin" to welcome the viewers. That's really cool. If you want to pronounce "Feuerwehrfahrzeug" try this one "Foier wear far Tzoig"
The Moin at the beginning was really good. The "Willkommen zurück" took some tries to understand ;-D
The Bus you've seen as the first one is a command vehicle. In Germany there was 4 types classified till they reorganized the classifications a few years ago.
First there is a KDOW which stands for Kommandowagen. It's mainly a regular car with a Bluelight, Siren, Radio and some cloths for the guys in charge of an FD or the leadership. Other than that they regularly don't have any technical stuff inside.
Second is the ELW 1 what stands for Einsatzleitwagen 1 which is just a small command vehicle based on VW T6, MB Sprinter, MB Vito and such. These cars you often see on professional brigades that lead the so called Löschzug, that consistes of a small command vehicle, 1-2 trucks and a ladder. These cars are mainly equipped with 2 pc workstations (professional fire departments tend to use only 1) and some space for about 4 people to lead the deployment. These cars are mostly manned by 2 (professional) or 3 (volunteer) firefighters.
Third is the ELW 2 what stands, surprise, surprise, for Einsatzleitwagen 2. This is just a bigger categorie of vehicles, mainly light trucks but could also be a big Sprinter based vehicle, that have space for 3 pc workstations and a small room for meetings with space for about 8 people. With the new classifications this are now the biggest, classified command vehicles in Germany. They are also manned by 3 firefighters regularly and often do have followup cars with further technical equipment on a Sprinter base chassis or equal.
The king of the command vehicles before they did the reorganization was the ELW 3. These vehicles where mainly big Trucks with 12 tons and more or like in Karlsruhe a Bus or in Munich an articulated truck. There wasn't a big difference in the equipment they would have brought with them inside compared to the ELW 2, they just offered more space. Berlin just ordered 3 Trucks a few years ago that would fit in that category. If I remember it right it where Scania 18T trucks with a large structure behind the cabine for the workstations and stuff meeting room.
And yes, the firefigthers give the vehicles Names, but not like you think. We use the official shortcut for them like HLF (Hilfeleistungslöschgruppenfahrzeug - in english I guess you would call it an engine which also is equipped with stuff for technical assistance) oder TLF (Tanklöschfahrzeug - in english you would call it a tanker).
Two additions, the KDOW would be the closest comparison to what is known as Battalion chief in North America.
And our TLF does not directly compare to a tanker as they are common in North america, as it is equipped with some of the basic equipment of a GLF (Gruppenlöschfahrzeug) which here is the basic engine or pump truck. The difference between the GLF and the HLF is the equipment on board, like rescue equipment etc. Those are the most common ones sent out in an alarm here and I think are the closest comparison to a North American engine.
The city I live in has for example three fire stations (for the city fire department, there is an additional dozen of smaller volunteer stations as well.) each has usually one "Löschzug" or Alarm group on standby, consisting of one HLF, one DLF (a ladder truck) and a TLF. Although depending on the incident they are not necessarily all sent out at once
A HLF would be a Rescue-Engine in North-America. But our HLFs usually contain more material for rescues on construction sites plus the basic stuff for hazmat calls.
to be honest i have no idea how your firefighters are organized, in canda, in germany the vast majority is voluntary...
We have lots of volunteers as well, especially smaller towns and villages which are usually all volunteers. Bigger cities will have full time members and well as auxiliary volunteers.
In Germany the firemen of villages / Gemeinden ( lesser than 10000 inhabitants) are usualy volunteers. In small towns/ Kleinstädte ( lesser than 30000 inhabitants) usually the same. In midsize towns / Mittelstädte ( 40000 to 100000) there is a small professional group ( one or two vehicles) as first response unit, followed by volunteers. In large towns/ Großstädte there are large professional units, when necessary supported by still existing volunteers.
There are dozens of different vehicles used by Fire Brigades in Germany: the double - decker at the beginning of the video is a mobile command post, but I reckon buses are also used in MANV operations (MANV = large casualty scenario) to accomodate large numbers of casualties due to an industrial explosion, for instance.
If you like to check out some beautiful oldtimers still in use, just randomly enter "Feuerwehr" and some city in East Germany. These IFA and Robur trucks produced in the now - defunct GDR are still running.
You definitely have to watch “Feuer & Flamme” (Fire & Flame). One of the best real life documentary series in Germany. The series follows the everyday life of the fire brigade, especially their operations. It's unique. And it shows me every time that these firefighters are the real heroes. (Translated by google)
Auto means car and Fahrzeug basically means Vehicle
React German song . Kilez and more . Leben und Tod des Imperialismus. This guy tell the tru…
The Airport truck in Action the new ones is ...holy moly😮
9:08 iirc: For a time the Frankfurt fire trucks had the radio callsign „Florian [number]“, because of the local Frankfurt license plate „F“ and the name of the patron saint of firefighters, Saint Florian.
Every vehicle of fire departments including volunteer fire departments in Germany and Austria has a callsign beginning with "Florian", not only in Frankfort. Usually the city or district name follows and then a number, depending on purpose of use of the vehicle.
Bij rampen worden deze bussen ingezet
the bus is used to evacuate areas.
Hallo, bin Deutscher und ich finder alle Einsatzfahrzeuge besser als die anderen Ländern. Hello, I'm German and I think all emergency vehicles are better than those in other countries.
und warum?
oh, i missed the waterdispenser from Mercedes-Benz GLC-Facility. a Firetruck with a huge fan on the back, 2.5 m in diameter to disperse cubic meters of water as fine spray in a minute. used to drench everything in reach (about 30m).
Sir
are you really learning german? 😃😃 Firefighters are well respected in every country, here in my german village we have volunteer firefighters,they do a regular job but are on the scene when needed any time,cool ha? 😍😍😊😊😃😃
The buses are used during evacuations
look at this : 90-Meter-Mast der WF Kraftwerk Neurath (90 meter mast of the WF Neurath power plant)
4:06 come to think of it, this year, 2024, marks the 150th anniversary of the founding of the professional municipal fire brigades of Frankfurt am Main. The stations have „Days of the Open Doors“, one station per week on sundays to commemorate this.
Feuerwehrauto ist ein Löschzug.
Versteht keiner der nicht deutsch spricht. 😁
Mit den 'priviligerten' Stadt- oder Werksfeuerwehren kann sich eine kleinee ,freiwillige' Landfeuerwehr nicht messen.
Ein Löschzug ist eine Zusammenstellung mehrerer Feuerwehrfahrzeuge und Besatzung zum primären Zweck der Brandbekämpfung. Klassicherweise 2 Löschfahrzeuge, 1 Drehleiter, 1 ELW, 1 RTW. Ist aber nicht genau definiert, daher gibt es da diverse Varianten. Analog zum Löschzug gibt es dann zum Beispiel auch Rüstzüge, wo dann zum Beispiel Rüstwagen, Autokräne usw. Mit fahren... Und natürlich gibt es auch weitere Fachzüge.
Außerdem bitte Werkfeuerwehr, nicht WerkSfeuerwehr 😉
was für ein Kommentar ...
Es gibt Berufsfeuerwehren die nur 7 Mann Wachbesatzung haben und kaum mehr als 2 sparsam besetzte Fahrzeuge raus schicken können. Dagegen gibts Freiwillige Wehren die binnen kürzester Zeit einen Haufen voll besetzter Fahrzeuge raus schicken können
Und ein Feuerwehrauto ist kein Löschzug. Ein Löschzug besteht per Definition aus mindestens 3 "Feuerwehrautos" ...
In Nederland hebben ze een quad in gebruik voor dichte bosgebieden waar geen wegen zijn.
Daar gaan de dorpen over via bosgebied. Ze kunnen daar een brancard op vervoeren narr het dichtbij verharde gebied om over te gaan naar auto’s .
8:01 Werksfeuerwehr are a company’s own firefighters; the ones at this timestamp are from a complex of chemical industry plants.
Werkfeuerwehr, not WerkSfeuerwehr 😉
@@michaelkruse4864 Now that you mention it… that actually is the spelling on the Wiesbaden Infraserv trucks… I am however pretty much convinced that without the „s“, it‘s actually a grammatical error… imo, that should be a Genitiv as part of the composite… like in „Geschäftsleitung“, „Arbeitsplatz“, etc.
Now that you mention that, I did a little Research on that and realized that in Germany it's typically used without the s (actually many members of "Werkfeuerwehren" are Kind of upset when the s is used), while in Austria it's typical to use the s.
The "S" is called Fugen-S and there seems to be no clear rule, when it has to be used or not. Therefore from the gramatical point of view, both ways seem to be correct. Anyway the most fire protection laws of the Single (German) states speak about Werkfeuerwehr without the s
I think the worst case for First Responders is to arrive just a few minutes too late, to be unable to save someone!
what exactly is "worst case" about that?
@@EnjoyFirefighting I think the answer to this question is easy: The main task of a First Responder is to save people who are in dire straits: for example: to recover people trapped after a car crash, or to get them out of an apartment on fire! So, when you put yourself in the shoes of a firefighter or a paramedic who is just minutes too late so that he cannot do anything anymore, it's quite easy to understand that this could be a quite frustrating experience - isn't it?
@@jurgenkuhlmann9194 it sounds a bit harsh, but when seconds count, people have a poor chance of survival ... and sometimes it's better for the patient not to survice, than surviving with a remaining low quality of life for many years to come.
For some patients it's definetly better and rather a salvation not to survive
0:35 you speak "feuerwehr" very good I need to say as German
In Duitsland en Nederland hebben ze heel specifice wagens.
Number 1 of the bus is a command vehicle, which is used to coordinate and manage operations above a certain size
These sort of people are the real Superheros!
Absolutely I could not agree moer
Until I Go , You're amazing! Let's be friends and hang out!
Busses in Germany are mainly used as mobile medical center
1:24 When trains derail or major accidents occur with many people involved, the fire department needs a bus to evacuate people. Here we have a bus that half belongs to the fire department. During the day, this bus runs as normal, but when the radio message comes, everyone has to get out because the vehicle is needed by the fire department.
they don't necessarily NEED it. It's handy and they'll use it if available - but they'll use the bus also for way smaller incidents already; Rehab, bariatric patients etc
There are two Frankfurts in Germany.
Frankfurt a. M., on the Main river, there is the big airport. License plate begins with F...
Frankfurt a. O. , on the Oder river, near Poland. License plate begins with FF...
The sirens for fire departments and police were originally developed by the Martin company. This makes trumpets and horns. The siren consisted of two brass horns that each played one note. The compressed air is alternately directed into one horn or the other. The compressor for the air is located on the engine.
But today there are also electronic horns.
The blue flashing light is a development in preparation for war. Before WW2, the fire department was subordinate to the police. The blue light should not be visible from far in the dark.
Today the flashing lights are much brighter thanks to LED technology.
And the fire department is no longer part of the police department.
But it is usual for the fire department to organize the ambulances too.
Fahrzeuge means vehicles 😊
Die Feuerwehr in Deutschland hat eine Luftdruckfanfare. Damit unterscheidet sie sich von der Polizei und den Notärtzen, die eine elektronische Signelanlage benutzt. Somit ist das Klangbild anders und es wird eine höhere Priorität eingeräumt.
Das ist so nicht korrekt. In der Tat kenne ich keine Fahrzeuge der Polizei, die Luftdruckhörner, umgekehrt kenne ich aber viele feuerwehren, die auch Elektrohorn nutzen (teilweise ausschließlich, teilweise beides verbaut und jeweils per Knopfdruck auswählbar). Es gibt aber auch viele Rettungsdienste, und Notarzteinsatzfahrzeuge, die das eine, das andere oder beides nutzen.
das ist falsch. Eine jede Organisation kann eine jede Art von Sondersignal haben. So kann auch der Rettungsdienst, die Polizei, Wasserwacht usw ebenso Presslufthorn haben, und die Feuerwehr kann ebenso E-Horn haben. Das hat nichts, absolut gar nichts mit einer höheren Priorität durch das Klangbild zu tun
The first one is a Command center.
That was my guess too :)
Engine = Löschfahrzeug,Truck = Drehleiter mit Korb, Tower = Teleskopmast,Watertender = Tanklöschfahrzeug
This Bus is a Einsatzleitwagen her working in a Event of Major Damage/Desaster/Fire Battalion Chiefs,Fire Chief,many Radio Operator and other Specialist.
Truck ist nicht Drehleiter mit Korb, Ladder ist die Drehleiter und auch da kann man Tower sagen, aber am gängigsten ist Ladder. Truck ist ein LKW oder ein Geländewagen/Pickup
@@Schreihals84 jaein; es kommt in den USA sehr auf die Wehr und den Bundesstaat an. Mancherorts wird durchaus die Drehleiter "Truck" genannt. Genauso wie mancherorts "Rescue" nicht für den Rüstwagen steht sondern für den RTW
@@EnjoyFirefighting Rescue steht doch eh nicht für Rüstwagen.
@@Schreihals84 doch durchaus. Heavy Rescue, oder kurz einfach nur Rescue
Greetings from Germany here , you need to react to de "Turbolöschfahrzeuge" and the "TULF". These are turbine driven firefighting vehicles for chemicals plants.
I don't want to seem rude, but when I started as a volunteer with the paramedics for two years... the first thing I had to do was look at pictures of dead accident victims (small children) to toughen myself up, then I spent six weeks learning how to put on bandages... ... on my first assignment I was tasked with finding the head of a "Motorcycle Jesus". We "volunteers" were "abused" for cleaning the streets (collecting body parts) and no one gave us psychological care afterwards... those were my first 2 and last years with the "paramedics"
By the way: you know what a “Motorcycle Jesus” is?
I'm telling you, there's someone who puts his "autograph" into the roof of a station wagon at the end of the traffic jam.... most of the time the head is still on... but sometimes it can be found again a few hundred meters away... and... I had to collect the parts with a garbage bag and a hand brush.... I NEVER want to experience that AGAIN
Hard stuff you went through. Stay strong!
Tatü Tata 😂Achtung Achtung ⚠️
