Shacman H3000 6*4 400HP 20 Ton Potable Water Tank Truck Bowser

The Shacman H3000 6x4 400HP 20 Ton Potable Water Tank Truck Bowser is a configuration of a heavy-duty special-purpose vehicle designed for efficient bulk water transport and distribution, often for drinking water (potable) or general-purpose municipal/industrial use.

• Chassis: SHACMAN H3000 Series. The H3000 is known for its lightweight design (compared to older models) while maintaining a robust and reliable performance, often utilizing licensed MAN technology in key areas like the cab and axles.
• Drive Type: 6x4. This refers to a three-axle truck with power supplied to the two rear axles (a ten-wheeler configuration), providing strong traction and high load capacity suitable for heavy-duty hauling.
• Engine Power: 400 HP (Horsepower). This is a high-power rating, typically achieved with a Weichai (e.g., WP12 series) or a high-output Cummins engine, which ensures the truck can handle the heavy 20-ton load and traverse varied terrain efficiently.

• Capacity:
  • 20 Ton (a common measurement for water tankers).
  • This is equivalent to approximately 20,000 Liters (20 CBM).
• Purpose (Potable Water): For the water to be "potable" (safe for drinking), the tank material is usually required to be stainless steel or specially treated carbon steel with a non-toxic inner coating to prevent contamination.
• Tank Material (General): For general water use (sprinkling, construction), the tank is typically constructed from high-quality Q235 Carbon Steel with a thickness of 4-5mm.
• Tank Shape: Often elliptical or cylindrical.

The term "Bowser" indicates the vehicle is equipped for not just transport, but also distribution, which includes:

• Water Pump: A dedicated, engine-driven (via PTO) self-priming sprinkler pump is the core component.
  • It allows for self-suction (drawing water from external sources like rivers or ponds) and self-draining/pressurized discharge.
• Sprinkling System:
  • Front Flushing: High-pressure nozzles for washing roads and streets.
  • Rear Sprinklers: Nozzles that spray a wide fan of water for cooling, dust suppression, and road maintenance.
  • Water Cannon: A high-pressure water gun mounted on a rear working platform, often with 360-degree rotation and adjustable spray patterns (mist, rain, straight jet) for landscaping, long-distance fire suppression, or cleaning high-altitude objects.
• Valves & Interfaces: Equipped with necessary ball valves, a four-position three-way valve, and a fire interface (often ϕ65 mm) to connect to fire hydrants for rapid refilling.

• Engine: Weichai (e.g., WP12.400E201) or Cummins, 400 HP, typically meeting Euro II, III, or higher emission standards depending on the export market.
• Gearbox: A heavy-duty, multi-speed manual transmission, commonly a FAST Gear 10- or 12-speed forward and 2 reverse (e.g., 12JSD180T).
• Axles: Robust axles (often licensed MAN technology) to handle the heavy load:
  • Front Axle: Typically 7.5 to 9.5 Tons.
  • Rear Axles: Heavy-duty double-reduction axles, 13 to 16 Tons each.
• Tires: High-load capacity tires like 12.00R20 or 315/80R22.5 (radial or tubeless).
• Cab: H3000 cab, which is known for its spaciousness, comfort features (A/C, sleeper bed), and safety (passed European ECE-R29 collision test).
