Cat P324 Primary Pulverizer

DESCRIPTION

Cat P300 Series Primary Pulverizers are designed for applications such as cutting, breaking, and crushing concrete structures during demolition.Cat® Pulverizers are perfectly matched to Cat excavators so you can deliver productive concrete demolition without compromising performance or machine health. Cat P300 Series Primary Pulverizers are designed for applications such as cutting, breaking, and crushing concrete structures during demolition.

HIGH PERFORMANCE

        
  • Cat pulverizer jaws are designed to cut through material quickly to enhance your machine’s overall operating efficiency and help reduce fuel consumption.
    •     
  • Precisely position primary pulverizer jaws with 360-degree rotation and visibility to the moveable jaw during demolition.
    •     
  • The Speed Booster valve actively balances speed and power, delivering fast cycle times and strong closing force to help increase productivity.

Grease points accessible from the ground

EASY TO MAINTAIN

        
  • Replaceable wear parts can be swapped quickly in the field and do not require surface welding to help reduce service time.
    •     
  • Daily wear parts inspection and grease points are accessible from the ground with the pulverizer still mounted on the machine.
    •     
  • Safely perform maintenance with easy access through one inspection panel.
    •     
  • Hydraulic components are shielded from damage inside the housing, helping decrease downtime on the job site.

RELIABILITY AND DURABILITY

        
  • Cat pulverizers are manufactured with high-strength, abrasion-resistant steel, especially in excessive wear areas.
    •     
  • Reinforced cylinder rod hinges on the moveable jaw are designed to help boost durability and life of the pulverizer.
    •     
  • The C-shaped cylinder guard provides extra protection against concrete demolition.
    •     
  • Cat pulverizers have a versatile use across demolition applications, making them your choice for a wide variety of job sites.

BOOST EFFICIENCY AND PRODUCTIVITY WITH INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES

        
  • Never waste time looking for your attachments again. Cat asset tracking is available on all pulverizers.
    •     
  • Track your entire fleet of attachments and machines from one source. Pulverizers with asset tracking can be viewed within VisionLink®.
    •     
  • Keep your assets secure. Pulverizers with an asset tracker send an alert if they leave an easy-to-set-up site boundary.

VERSATILITY AND CONVENIENCE WITH COUPLERS

        
  • Share pulverizers and other attachments of the same size class across multiple machines by adding a quick coupler.
    •     
  • Significantly reduce the time it takes to switch attachments when using a quick coupler.
    •     
  • Quick couplers add a new level of safety to your job site with the ability to switch attachments while the operator stays in the cab with built-in redundancies to keep your attachments secure in the event of a pressure loss.
    •     
  • A variety of couplers are available to suit your specific needs:     
              
    • Cat Pin Grabber Couplers – dedicated pin system
      •         
    • CW Dedicated Couplers – wedge-style, dedicated system
      •         
    • S Type Couplers – wedge-style, dedicated system
      •         
    • Hydraulic Connecting CW Couplers – hydraulic connecting version of the CW coupler with instant hydraulic capability upon connection
      •         
    • Hydraulic Connecting S Type Couplers – hydraulic connecting version of the S type coupler with instant hydraulic capability upon connection
