2022 Caterpillar Landfill Compactors 826K

2022 Caterpillar Landfill Compactors 826K

Purpose-built for landfill operation, the Cat 826K delivers a level of reliability, performance, safety, operator comfort, serviceability, and efficiency that can only come from 35-plus years as the industry's leader. Field-proven protection and integrated technologies provide peak availability and optimized landfill performance.

Features may include:

• Eco Mode allows the machine to go into auto shift mode when not operating at maximum torque, optimizing performance and saving fuel.

• The left pedal acts as a brake, transmission neutralizer and an engine decelerator to override the engine speed selected by the throttle lock. Allows the operator to slow speeds when the throttle lock is engaged and to return to throttle lock without pressing a resume or set button.

• Electro hydraulic controls increase productivity with responsive implements feature. Operate comfortably with easy-to-use soft-detent controls.

• Steering system provides confident machine operation and precise control enabled by the 826K's load-sensing hydraulic steering system.

• Increased efficiency with variable displacement piston pumps that give operators precise positioning for easy operation in tight areas with 43 degree articulation in each direction.

• Steering and Transmission Integrated Control System (STIC™) enhances operator comfort by integrating steering and transmission control functions in a single lever. Includes finger-controlled gear selection.

• Designed and made with purpose-built structures to remain safe and durable for the long run.

• Long-life-designs, materials and robotic welding ensure multiple life cycles and ability to withstand the toughest conditions.

• Full box-section rear frame resists torsional shock and twisting forces.

• Heavy-duty steering-cylinder mounts efficiently conduct steering loads into the frame.

• Single Clutch Speed Shifting (SCSS) delivers consistent, smooth shifting and efficiency.

• Strategic use of metallurgy and heat treating ensures long-life gears.

• The Cat C15 engine is designed for maximum fuel efficiency and increased power density.

• Two engine options are available to meet Tier 4 Final/Stage IV or Tier 3/Stage IIIA equivalent emission standards. (depending upon market).

• Fully electronic engine controls integrate with entire machine systems to optimize fuel economy.

• Engine idle shutdown reduces fuel waste during idling periods.

• Delayed Engine Shutdown maximizes durability.

• New long-life paddle and plus design tip options.

• Up to 40% longer life.

• Purpose designed for landfils.

• Improved machine performance.

• Improved traction.

• Select paddle tip for traction and fuel economy.

• Select plus tip for increased side-slope stability.

• Select combination of both to optimize performance in your conditions.

• Pressurized cab sits on isolation mounts improving comfort and reducing sound.

• Cab features a convenient floor storage tray/lunch box.

• Cat Comfort Series III Seat includes mid-back design, thick, contoured cushions, air suspension, six-way adjustments, and a seat-mounted implement pod and STIC steer that moves with the seat for optimal control.
