2022 Caterpillar Vibratory Soil Compactors CP54B
OVERVIEWThe CP54B Vibratory Soil Compactor combines world-class productivity with outstanding operator comfort while continuing the legacy of durability, reliability and ease-of-service that contractors worldwide have come to expect from Cat® machines.
Features may include:
Pod-style Eccentric Weights- The B-Series utilizes the proven Cat pod-style vibratory system. The system design significantly reduces the risk of contamination common to conventional designs that employ metal weights. Providing unrivaled reliability and performance, the Cat pod-style vibratory system is virtually maintenance free, with the first scheduled maintenance period at 3 years or 3,000 hours.
More Amplitude- The B-Series vibratory soil compactors deliver enhanced compaction performance as the result of an increase in amplitude. Maximum amplitude is now amongst the highest in the industry, and provides a greater ability to put compaction energy into the ground.
Auto-vibe- There is a new automatic vibration function. When vibration is engaged, vibration will cease as the compactor slows beneath a predetermined speed. When propel resumes, vibration recommences at a predetermined speed. This feature contributes to uniform, high-quality work.
Padfoot Drum- Padfoot drums are ideal for compacting cohesive and semi-cohesive materials and can be equipped with either Cat exclusive oval pads or conventional square pads. The oval faced design provides deeper lift penetration, contributing to better overall compaction in cohesive soils than other pad designs. The square faced design provides optimal performance on semi-cohesive soils. It has a higher surface area, which allows it to create a good surface seal; but the larger face area does not allow deep lift penetration.
Dual-pump Propel System- The exclusive Cat dual pump propel system provides steady hydraulic flow for unmatched gradeability and blade function and now has been enhanced with electronic control for even better performance. The dual pump propel system provides separate hydraulic flow to the rear wheels and the drum for exceptional tractive effort in thick lifts, soft underfoot conditions or steep slope applications and allows for superior control on a grade in forward and reverse.
Cat C4.4 Diesel Engine with ACERT™ Technology- The B-Series Vibratory Soil Compactors feature a Cat C4.4 engine with ACERT™ technology that offers enhanced efficiency, better serviceability, ample power, and less noise. The Cat C4.4 engine utilizes the building blocks of ACERT technology in order to meet emission standards. This innovative combination yields cleaner combustion and delivers steady power in all operating conditions with optimal fuel efficiency.
Large Cooling Package- B-Series Vibratory Soil Compactors are equipped with a large cooling package and a variable speed fan. The large system helps to keep operating temperatures within optimal ranges. The variable speed fan reduces power draw by only operating at the speed that is necessary to cool the system. The reduced power draw contributes to more efficient use of fuel.
