Equipment
Reported May 27, 2020 · Akron Brass Company
Summary
Akron Brass Company (Akron Brass) is recalling certain battery-powered 3600 wireless remote controller units used to control the movement of electric firefighting monitors in firefighting vehicles. The monitor is used to direct the water stream and adjust the spray pattern. The wireless remote controller's sleep mode is disabled, and results in the batteries discharging faster than normal.
Consequence
Inability to use the wireless remote controller may hinder the firefighting efforts, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy
Akron Brass will notify owners, and request them to return affected wireless remote controllers to Akron Brass for a software update to enable the sleep mode, free of charge. This recall began June 3, 2020. Owners may contact Akron Brass customer service at 1-800-228-1161.
