Three-section COBRA aerial platform introduced

Rosenbauer is proud to introduce their new 101′ 3-section COBRA aerial platform. The new aerial features all of the latest innovations and technology Rosenbauer has to offer.

The aerial device is available with the standard paint process or our patented hot-dipped galvanizing process that give our customers a full 25 Year Corrosion warranty.

A 3-section aerial allows the fly section to be wider and deeper, giving firefighters more room for climbing and rescues. The Rosenbauer “Smart Aerial” uses advanced CANBUS electronics that continuously monitors outrigger placement, aerial placement and loading. The system allows the operator to operate the device with complete confidence and reduces the potential to operate in an unsafe condition, even if the stabilizers are short jacked. The turntable aerial controls are a user friendly control station, complete with a command seat and single joy-stick controller to operate the aerial, monitor and lights.
