Set-ups

On a trolley, on a base or on an arm

Trolley or base

The wheeled set-up of the C72 consists of a sturdy galvanised base with 3 pneumatic wheels, 2 stabilisers and a drawbar suitable for slow towing with construction machinery.

This version can easily be converted to the base set-up if a fixed position is needed. The three wheels, drawbar and stabilisers can be removed and three feet can be fitted at the three ends to keep the cannon fixed and stable.

On an articulated arm

The articulated arm version is one of the most popular choices for the C72 dust suppression cannon, often combined with custom autonomous station solutions. The arm, raised by a pantograph, reaches a height of about 5.5 m, so the dust can be hit from above.

In some special applications, a trolley has been fitted at the base of the cross-shaped structure together with 4 stabiliser feet.

PLC

All C72 configurations come with a PLC with a touch screen interface. The operator can switch the pump and fan on and off, set the rotation angle, adjust the rotation speed, tilt the cannon head vertically, switch the light on and off, raise and lower the articulated arm, select the active nozzles, switch on the ring heating, enable or disable the radio remote control (optional), set working time slots and the work cycle function.

Autec radio remote control for Conrad C series cannons: keypad with Start/Stop and side view with the red emergency stop button

Radio remote control

This model can be fitted with a radio remote control to operate the automatic functions from a distance, for example to direct the mist jet precisely straight from the excavator cab. The radio remote controls selected by the Cannoni Conrad team are high quality and suited to industrial environments.

Anemometer and wind station

The PLC installed on the C72 dust suppression cannon is ready for connection to an anemometer and a weather station for wind monitoring. This configuration makes it possible to control when misting is activated according to the wind speed measured in the work area, based on preset operating thresholds.
