Overview More Power and Lower Fuel Consumption The CS78B offers outstanding performance for granular soil compaction applications.

Sealed eccentric weights The B series uses the proven Cat sealed unbalance housing vibration system. The circuit design significantly reduces the risk of contamination, common in conventional designs using metal counterweights. Offering unrivalled reliability and performance, the Cat sealed unbalance housing vibration system is virtually maintenance-free, with the first maintenance period set at 3 years or 3,000 hours. More amplitude B Series vibratory soil compactors offer improved compaction performance thanks to increased amplitude. Maximum amplitude is now one of the highest in the industry, offering superior capacity to transfer compaction energy to the soil.

Automatic Vibration A new automatic vibration function is available. If vibration is engaged, it ceases when the compactor speed falls below a preset value. When travel resumes, vibration resumes at a predetermined speed. This feature contributes to high work quality and consistency.

Vibratory Soil Compactor Smooth rollers are ideal for compacting granular materials, and can be fitted with an optional tamping foot kit for compaction on cohesive or semi-cohesive ground.** Universal bumper The universal bumper adds weight to the cylinder and facilitates installation of the optional padfoot kit.
