27 August 2020

BURNIE, TASMANIA - Delta does not only design and manufacture hydraulic cylinders but also can work with our customers to design and manufacture specialised steel parts.

In this case Delta worked with a long standing and loyal customer of 45 years to design and manufacture a three stage telescopic water transfer boom with a stroke of 4.465 metres.

The telescopic boom is fitted to the Elphinstone WR820 Water Tank. This is a dual application machine with 16200L capacity, featuring a 3-way dust suppression system for haul road maintenance and water cannon for wash down. The operator can operate both the water cannon and water sprays safely from inside the climate-controlled ROPS/FOPS certified cabin. Other features include a proven Caterpillar power train, all-wheel drive, heavy-duty axles, retarder to assist service brakes, fire suppression and much more.
