Ameriflo Tier 0 FM Approval
Ameriflo FM Diesel Engine Approval
After over a year of intensive product development and an extremely stringent testing schedule, Ameriflo is proud to announce it’s Factory Mutual (FM) approval of the 9050 Diesel Engine program. This Factory Mutual approval covers the first 15 Ameriflo Diesel engines from 121 HP through an incredible 1207 horsepower. Speed ranges from 2950 RPM down through 1460 RPM. An additional 12 Diesel engines are going through final FM testing to have a total of 24 Diesel engines with Factory Mutual approval.
The Ameriflo Diesel engine is the most diverse and efficient Diesel engine product line available today. The Diesel engine group has spent considerable time developing blocks with a horsepower range that is simply not available from the competition. Ameriflo already has nearly 30 Diesel engines that are UL Listed and the FM approval adds to the heritage of this product line.
Ameriflo Diesel engines have features that the other Diesel engine manufactures simply do not have. The Diesel engine cradle is a unique and specifiable feature by virtually eliminating Diesel engine vibration that was historically transferred to the pump and system piping. The Diesel engine cradle also houses the emergency contractors, complete cooling loop and the Diesel engine pre-heater. The Ameriflo Vibration Isolation Cradle (VIC) has integral engine mounts that completely isolate the Diesel engine vibration from being transferred to the pump base assembly, This is a feature that no other Diesel engine manufacturer has. This VIC greatly reduces oscillations found from other Diesel engine manufacturers and allows all Ameriflo pump assemblies to operate vibration free.
The Ameritouch digital engine controller has no “old school” gauges present. The end user is presented with a fully digital, touch screen interface that is state of the art! All Diesel engine parameters can be monitored from this digital interface making startup and run tests very easy. This is yet another example of how Ameriflo is leveraging technology to be the leader in the fire protection market.
Another very critical area of importance for Ameriflo is the overall look of the Diesel engine when ready to ship to the customer. Other manufactures simply “dump” paint on the entire engine in a monolithic paint scheme that looks extremely sloppy and very unprofessional. Ameriflo takes considerable time and effort making sure that overspray is not present on the Diesel engine platform. The stainless steel components are allowed to shine and the fuel and oil hoses are clean and paint free. The cooling loop is also clean and free of paint allowing for a more professional Diesel engine package. These small details is what separates Ameriflo from the rest of the field.
As always, thank you for your interest in Ameriflo and we welcome you to The Future of Fire Protection (and Diesel engine leader!!).
