The Benefits of Irisbus Technology
The 68 passenger seats are all mounted in channels directly to the totally flat floor structure.
This is trimmed in non-slip grey vinyl and meets the European directive 76/115 which requires a pull
test of 4.5 tonnes per seat. This high floor strength is the basis for a level of passenger security that is
second to none in this sector.
To maintain a high quality level of comfort throughout their
journey, whatever the length, three box type saloon
heaters are provided together with two roof mounted
ventilation hatchs and two electric extractor vents
mounted at the rear of the saloon.
To ensure that aisles and the seating areas are kept clear,
luggage racks are provided on both sides of the saloon.
Every aspect of vehicle specification that is key to the
successful schoolbus operation has been taken into
account with the "Scolabus 24". We have given the driver
the ultimate in electronic engine, automatic gearbox and
first rate brakes to make his life as drama free as
possible.
The seats are made by leading suppliers of coach seats
and each one meets the very tough M2 safety standard.
Every seat is fitted with a lap and diagonal seat belt.
These are of the "All Age" design to ensure that
irrespective of the size of the child, he or she can be
transported in total safety. Moreover, each seat is
individually numbered to aid child identification as well as
guarding against vandalism.
