CATERPILLAR CB224C STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

The Caterpillar CB224C is a static smooth drum roller designed for compaction tasks in construction, ideal for applications like turning lanes, crossovers, and shoulders. It features a single smooth drum with a width of 47.2 inches (120 cm) and a vibration frequency of 3600 vibrations per minute (vpm), delivering efficient compaction performance. The operating width is 51 inches, enabling effective coverage. The machine has a compact turning radius of 95.5 inches, enhancing maneuverability in confined spaces. Powered by a Caterpillar engine with a gross output of 32.9 horsepower and a displacement of 104.8 cubic inches, it ensures reliable and consistent power delivery. The CB224C weighs approximately 5,401 pounds, providing substantial ground contact force with a static linear load of 57 pounds per inch. It holds a fuel capacity of 14.2 gallons and hydraulic fluid capacity of 10.6 gallons. The roller operates at a maximum speed of 6.6 mph and includes a 12-volt electrical system supported by a 50-amp alternator. Its overall length is about 7.97 feet, width 4.27 feet, and height to the top of the cab is 8.2 feet. The nominal amplitude of vibration in the high setting is 0.1 inches, with a centrifugal force of 5,400 pounds. These combined features make the CB224C a versatile and powerful choice for medium-duty asphalt and soil compaction projects requiring strong compaction force and maneuverability.
