BossTek launch new compact dust-control mist cannon
Latest DustBoss DB-45 Surge model offers pressurized stream option and improved versatility
BOSSTEK, specialists in mobile dust-suppression equipment, have introduced their all-new DustBoss DB-45 Surge – the next iteration of the company’s popular Surge series.
Featuring an innovative pressurized centre nozzle, together with the OEM’s proven fan and misting ring system, the technology will help end-users suppress dust in all weather conditions.
The new DB-45 Surge model was specially developed as a direct response to customers in the demolition and bulk material handling sectors requiring a powerful mobile mid-sized dust-control mist cannon.
With three remote-controlled stages and precision oscillation for optimum command over water volume and coverage area, the DB-45 Surge uses J2P (jet-to-plume) nozzle technology that surges for over 200ft (60m) to suppress dust even in troublesome windy conditions. The result is an easily maneuverable, autonomous, and versatile dust-control solution for outdoor operations in all weather conditions.
‘Our first iteration of this technology was larger for operations with high-reach cranes and enormous coverage areas,’ commented Mike Lewis, a dust-control specialist at BossTek. ‘Managers of medium and smaller operations were impressed with the existing technology but wanted a lighter and more compact option that offered the same excellent field-tested versatility and results. With a 200ft throw range, most of our customers will be well served by the new model.’
The DB-45 Surge combines the power of an industrial fan, misting ring, and heavy-duty barrel with the reach of a central high-pressure spray nozzle. The misting ring produces millions of tiny dusts capturing droplets into an area for proven dust suppression.
The pressurized spray resists wind shear and even uses the force of the wind to further fragment and carry the droplets, enhancing its dust suppression capabilities. The mist cannon’s coverage area is extended with a customizable 260º horizontal oscillation range and a maximum 50º vertical throw angle. Mounted on a heavy-duty roadworthy trailer for towing at highway speeds with a standard ball hitch, it can be placed by a pickup truck, skid steer, or lift truck wherever dust suppression is required.
The DB-45 Surge is also available as part of the company’s popular Fusion line-up, pairing the unit with a trailer-mounted generator to alleviate the need for a nearby power source.
‘The DustBoss product line is known for its rugged quality and long service life, often described as one of the most reliable and low-maintenance items of equipment on any job site,’ said Mr Lewis. ‘Our three-year/3,000-hour warranty is evidence of our confidence in the products. The DB-45 Surge is designed with that same philosophy – it’s built to last.’
