Four Models. One Upgradeable System.

Start with simple manual operation and step up to full remote control as your requirements grow. Every model shares the same premium aluminium construction and comprehensive guarding system.

RFR-1 Manual Hose Reel
Entry Level

RFR-1 Manual Reel

Simple, durable, reliable manual rewind.

The RFR-1 is the entry point into the RFR system — a straightforward, high-quality manual hose reel suited to smaller spray units, fire units, trailers and field setups where powered rewind is not required.

  • Manual hand rewind operation
  • Left or right-hand water inlet options
  • 4 stainless steel rollers for smooth hose control
  • 180° hose feed in and out
  • Reel lock and friction brake
RFR-2 Electric Powered Hose Reel
Powered Rewind

RFR-2 Electric Reel

Powered rewind to reduce manual handling and speed up retrieval.

The RFR-2 adds a heavy-duty 12V or 24V electric motor to the RFR-1 foundation — a practical and popular upgrade for operators who regularly deploy and rewind hose in demanding firefighting or spraying environments.

  • 12V or 24V heavy-duty electric motor
  • Left or right-hand water inlet options
  • 4 stainless steel rollers
  • Powerful and consistent powered retraction

Self-Guided

RFR-3 Self-Guided Reel

Automatic hose guidance for cleaner, faster pack-up.

The RFR-3 adds Intelli-Spray's Archimedes shaft self-guiding system to the powered rewind of the RFR-2 — eliminating the need for operators to manually layer the hose during retrieval. Faster pack-up, less fatigue, neater reel every time.

  • 12V or 24V heavy-duty electric motor
  • Archimedes shaft self-guiding rewind system
  • 6 HDPE rollers for smooth hose feed

Full remote control — the most capable reel in the range.

The RFR-4 combines everything from the RFR-1, RFR-2, and RFR-3 and adds full remote control operation with up to 100 m (328 ft) range — allowing operators to retrieve hose from a distance for maximum safety, productivity, and mobility in large-scale firefighting and rural property fire defence.

  • Includes all RFR-1, RFR-2 and RFR-3 features
  • Remote control with up to 100 m (328 ft) range
  • Fully hands-free hose retrieval from the field

Frequently Asked Questions

RFR Range FAQs

What is the RFR Range designed for?+-
The RFR (Remote Fire-Fighting Reel) Range is designed for hose management across firefighting, emergency response, rural property fire defence, agricultural spraying, council operations, and industrial field applications. The four models cover everything from simple manual rewind on smaller units to full remote control retrieval on large-scale fire apparatus and spray vehicles, providing vehicle-mounted fire suppression capability for farms, ranches, and large rural properties in fire-prone areas.
What is the difference between RFR-1, RFR-2, RFR-3 and RFR-4?+-
The RFR-1 is a manual hand rewind reel. The RFR-2 adds 12V or 24V electric powered rewind to reduce manual handling. The RFR-3 adds the Archimedes shaft self-guiding system for automatic hose layering during retrieval. The RFR-4 adds remote control operation with up to 100 m (328 ft) range for fully hands-free hose retrieval from anywhere in the field.
Which RFR model is best for firefighting?+-
For firefighting applications, the RFR-2, RFR-3, or RFR-4 are most commonly used. Powered rewind reduces manual handling fatigue during incident response. The RFR-4 is the preferred option for larger fire apparatus and rural property fire response, where rapid, hands-free hose retrieval from a distance is critical to operational safety — allowing a single operator to manage hose deployment and retrieval without being close to the fire front.
Is the RFR system ready to use immediately when a fire breaks out?+-
Yes — the RFR system is designed for rapid deployment. Keep the tank filled during fire season and the system properly maintained, and you can be operational within minutes of a fire starting on your property. Remote-controlled hose rewind on the RFR-4 means you can deploy quickly without manual hose management.
Can I add foam wetting agent to the RFR system?+-
Yes. The Intelli-Spray Solid EF Dispenser can be added to the RFR system to inject firefighting foam wetting agent into the water stream. This significantly enhances fire suppression effectiveness — foam wetting agent reduces surface tension and allows water to penetrate vegetation more effectively than water alone.
What frame sizes are available?+-
The RFR range comes in four frame sizes: RFRA (Small — up to 50 m / 164 ft of 1/2" hose), RFR (Standard — up to 100 m / 328 ft of 1/2" hose), RFRB (Large — up to 200 m / 656 ft of 1/2" hose), and RFRC (Extra Large — up to 350 m / 1,148 ft of 1/2" hose). Frame sizes are available in different model combinations depending on the application.
Can I fit the RFR to my existing vehicle or trailer?+-
Yes. RFR reels can be configured for spray units, trailers, fire apparatus, service vehicles and other mobile setups. Left or right-hand water inlet options are available on all models. Contact your nearest Intelli-Spray distributor for fitment advice specific to your vehicle or trailer configuration.
What power options are available?+-
Powered models (RFR-2, RFR-3 and RFR-4) are available with either 12V or 24V heavy-duty electric motors to suit your vehicle's electrical system. The RFR-1 requires no power as it is a manual hand rewind model.
Can I choose the colour of my RFR reel?+-
Yes. All RFR reels are available in a wide selection of colours to match your vehicle or fleet livery. This is particularly useful for fire apparatus, council vehicles, and emergency response units that require colour-coded equipment. Discuss colour options with your distributor when ordering.
What warranty does the RFR range carry?+-
The RFR range carries a 12-month warranty on parts and workmanship from the date of delivery. For full terms, conditions, and the claim process, see the Intelli-Spray Warranty Policy.
