Cat’s new compactors said to offer more power with less fuel usage

Cat says an Eco-mode facility on its new CB24B and CB34B compactors, being launched at bauma, combines increased engine power availability with lower fuel usage. The CB24B and CB34B meet the European Union (EU) Stage IV/United States (U.S.) EPA Tier 4 Final emission standards. Versions of the C1.5 engine in the CB24B and the C2.2 engine in the CB34B are also available for customers in EU Stage IIIA and US EPA Tier 4 Interim emission standard markets.

A propel system to maximise performance on grades; enhanced operator visibility and comfort, including reduced sound levels; and outstanding compaction results through consistent amplitudes are said by Cat to be other key highlights of its new compactor duo.
