Abstract
A fire apparatus includes a chassis, a cab coupled to the chassis, a pump system coupled to the chassis and positioned at least partially behind the cab, and a driveline. The pump system includes a pump. The driveline includes a prime mover positioned beneath the cab and coupled to the chassis, a transmission, and a sandwiched power take-off unit positioned between (a) the prime mover and (b) the transmission and the pump system. The sandwiched power take-off unit facilitates operating the pump independent of a gear selection of the transmission and a ground speed of the fire apparatus.
