Standard features

## Built for mine site demands

### Premium cannon system

**CAT WDS or 3″ stainless steel ADE** water cannon: high-capacity long-throw spray with full joystick control and adjustable spray patterns.

### GPS spray system

**GPS-controlled rear spray** with metered, spot, zig-zag and flood modes. Auto shut-off at low speed, touch display, digital tank gauge, diagnostics and USB data logging.

### Hoist locking pin

Front-mounted **electric actuated pin** secures the tank in a roll-over event and prevents hoisting while the tank contains water.

### Split rear pivot

Engineered mount allows **lifting and placement without working under a suspended load**, critical for safe, compliant maintenance access.

### Tilt stay bar

Provides **additional safety control when servicing in the tilted position**. Stows securely when not in use. Engineered to the same standard as the core module.

### Integrated hydraulics

Truck hoist pump supplies hydraulic power via the hoist valve circuit. **All return and case drain oil feeds directly to the CAT hydraulic tank**. No auxiliary reservoir required.

### Cameras and LED lamps

**Integrated reverse camera** linked to the truck's on-board display. Rear and forward LED work lamps illuminate the fill funnel and spray bar area.

### Safe tank access

**Folding stairs** for compliant roof access. Rated harness anchor points on both tank roof and underside for safe elevated maintenance work.

Materials and protection

## Coating system

### Surface preparation

AS 1627.2 Class 2.5 grit blast on all carbon steel. Stainless steel pipework and fasteners throughout all fluid circuits.

### External coating

Dulux Durepon EZP primer with Weathermax HBR topcoat. Superior corrosion and UV resistance. Custom mine site colours available.

### Internal coating

Duremax GFX internal system. Hot-dip galvanised auxiliary fittings. Designed for continuous water contact with minimal maintenance overhead.

Optional equipment

## Options and accessories

All optional assemblies are engineered to the same durability and safety standards as the core module. Structural integrity and stability characteristics hold throughout.
