Melg,

you heard correct. MPHR is Medium Pump Heavy rescue. This appliance has more powerful/better cutting and more rescue gear than standard rescue gear on pumps.

Yep you'd have heard correctly. MPHR - Medium Pump Heavy Rescue. Same as a normal pump except the rescue gear is heavier duty, bigger cuts in one go etc.
edit: haha bomber must have beaten me by mere seconds.
