CAT® WATER TRUCKS

A water truck may be one of the most important pieces of support equipment at your site – and the support you need from us is just as important. That’s why Caterpillar is now offering a fully integrated solution to control dust – connected with Cat® MineStar Edge™ technology to increase efficiency.

 

 

DEFEAT DUST. CONTROL COST. GAIN AN EDGE. 

Cat Water Solutions helps you efficiently reduce haul road dust to enhance safety and increase productivity at your job site, quarry, or mine. A fully integrated truck, tank, and water delivery system – connected with scalable levels of technology – helps you solve overwatering and underwatering issues with a focus on sustainable operations. This turnkey solution with Cat branded tank offerings is sold and supported by the local Cat dealer you know and trust.

Reduce dust. Increase visibility. Water less.

At mining and quarry sites, haul road dust can take a high toll on both safety and productivity. Accidents can happen, operations can grind to a halt. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Let’s lean into the dust together, with the confidence to power through it.

CONTROL DUST. CONSERVE WATER.

Water is important to keep dust down and haul roads safe for operation. Too little water and dust grows out of control. Too much water and your roads become a slippery mess. Safety suffers and productivity slows. Knowing where and when to water — using only what you need — is key to conserving this scarce resource.
