2022 Caterpillar Vibratory Soil Compactors CP44B

The CP44B vibratory soil compactor has a durable Cat® power train, field-proven hydraulic and vibratory systems and the world's largest and most dedicated dealer support system.

Features may include:

• The pod-style weight housing is assembled and sealed at the factory to ensure cleanliness, longer bearing life and easier field exchange or service.

• The dual amplitude works efficiently in a wider range of applications. Selection is controlled from the operator's station.

• Large heavy-duty bearings for the eccentric weight shaft allow higher frequency for greater force.

• The 3 year/3000 hour vibratory bearing lube service interval reduces maintenance.

• The heavy-duty isolation mounts on the CP44B allow more force to be transmitted to the ground and less vibration to the drum yoke.

• Positive amplitude selection is accomplished when the spherical steel shot is repositioned inside the hollow eccentric weight. Direction of weight shaft rotation determines amplitude level.

• Control is simplified from the operator's station with a selection switch on the operator's console.

• The proprietary eccentric weights offer high reliability since there is no chance of the high-strength spherical steel shot welding together. System reliability is superior to swinging mechanical weights and is also quieter during starts and stops.

• The proprietary eccentric weights offer long service life. There are no heavy weights to slam together and no metal fragments to contaminate the bearing lubrication system.

• The C3.4B engine is certified to meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and European EU Stage IV emission standards.

• When engaged, Eco-mode reduces the operating speed of the engine to a lower rate, which reduces fuel consumption. Eco-mode is suitable for most normal applications. When more engine power is required, Eco-mode can be disabled.

• The dual propel pumps provide separate, balanced flow to the rear wheel axle and the drum drive motors. Provides high gradeability and increases tractive effort in loose or poor underfoot conditions.

• The limited slip differential provides balanced tractive effort and smooth torque transfer to both rear wheels.

• The dual pump propel system offers two speed ranges for versatile operation. Low speed range for vibratory operation and maximum torque when climbing grades. High speed range moves the machine quickly over longer distances.

• Flushing valves in each propel circuit help keep hydraulic oil cool and clean for maximum system efficiency.

• The two propel pump system has dedicated pumps to drive the heavy-duty, high-torque rear wheel and drum motors independently. Should the drum or wheels begin to spin, there is always hydraulic flow to the non-spinning motor, allowing continuous tractive effort. This is especially useful in loose underfoot conditions.

• Controllability is another feature of dual propel pumps. The operator is able to stop, maintain machine position and change directions while on a grade.
