LOWERING YOUR FUEL COSTS
- We've designed our trucks to use less fuel, which reduces engine emissions and carbon footprint, and there is zero fuel burn during retarding.
WATER DELIVERY SYSTEM:
- The water cannon operates at idle, which reduces fuel consumption during cannon operation by up to 50%.
*Results shown from Cat WDS cannon output. Testing was conducted at the Caterpillar Tucson Proving Ground with data captured from a production study. Results may vary.
