Product information "All Weather Nozzle Cover - All Weather Intake Valve Cover"
Modern fire apparatus rely on advanced intake valve systems equipped with external wheels, crank handles, electric motors, bleed valves, and integrated Wi-Fi controls. While these components improve performance and control, they are also highly exposed to road spray, salt, dirt, and debris. Traditional intake caps only protect the front-facing waterway and pipe threads, leaving critical mechanical and electronic features vulnerable to corrosion, contamination, and premature failure.
The All Weather Intake Valve Cover for the Akron Revolution Intake is engineered to solve this problem by providing full-assembly protection, not just thread coverage. This cover completely encases the intake valve assembly, including the threaded pipe face, crank handles, control wheels, electric motors, Wi-Fi modules, and bleed valves, creating a secure barrier against harsh environmental conditions.
Constructed for durability and long-term outdoor use, the cover features a 1000D ballistic polyester face and handlepaired with a 400D nylon and 400D diamond-stamped polyester body. This heavy-duty construction creates a tough, waterproof seal designed to withstand rain, snow, ice, road salt, and debris encountered during daily response and highway travel.
Unlike ordinary intake caps, this solution protects every exposed mechanical and electronic component, helping ensure your intake system remains clean, functional, and ready for emergency operations in all conditions.
