Benefits & Features
Vibratory System
Pod-style Weight Housing
The pod-style weight housing is assembled and sealed at the factory to ensure cleanliness, longer bearing life and easier field exchange or service.
Dual Amplitude
The dual amplitude allows the CS423E to works efficiently in a wider range of applications. Selection is controlled from the operator's station.
Vibratory Frequency
The CS423E has a vibratory frequence of 31.9 Hz (1,914 vpm) for maximum compaction results. Optional variable frequency control allows frequency to be better matched to varying job conditions.
Large Heavy-duty Bearings
Large heavy-duty bearings for the eccentric weight shaft allow higher frequency for greater force.
Vibratory Bearing Lube Service
The 3 year/3,000 hour vibratory bearing lube service interval reduces maintenance.
Heavy-duty Isolation Mounts
The heavy-duty isolation mounts on the CS432E allow more force to be transmitted to the ground and less vibration to the drum yoke.
Exclusive Eccentric Weights
Positive amplitude selection
Positive amplitude selection is accomplished when the steel shot is repositioned inside the hollow eccentric weight. Direction of the weight shaft rotation determines amplitude level.
Simplified control
There is simplified control from the operator's station with a selection switch on the operator's console.
High Reliability
The eccentric weights are highly reliable since there is no change of the high-strength spherical steel shot wedging together. System reliability is superior to swinging mechanical weights and is also quieter during starts and stops.
Long Service Life
No heavy weights to slap together and no metal fragments to contaminate the bearing lubrication system.
Cat® 3054C Series Diesel Engine
CS423E is naturally aspirated.
CS423E is naturally aspirated.
Adjustment-free Direct Injection Fuel System
An adjustment-free direct injection fuel system provides individually metered high-pressure, direct injection of fuel for maximum efficiency.
Engine Oil Cooler
A large engine oil cooler reduces oil deterioration and varnishing of internal components. Allows for 500 hour engine oil change intervals.
Low-mounted Oil Pump
A low-mounted oil pump allows for quicker start-up lubrication.
Combination Fuel Filter and Water Seperator
The combination fuel filter and water separator offers superior protection for the fuel injection system.
Engine Meets Emissions Control Standards
The Cat® 3054C engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 2 and European EU Stage II emissions control standards worldwide.
Dual Pump Propel System
Dual Propel Pumps
The dual propel pumps provide separate, balanced hydraulic flow to the rear wheel axle and the drum drive motors. The dual propel pumps provide high gradeability and increased tractive effort in loose or poor underfoot conditions.
Limited Slip Differential
The limited slip differential provides balanced tractive effort and smooth torque transfer to both rear wheels.
Two Speed Ranges
Two speed ranges provide for versatile operation. Low speed range is for vibratory operation and maximum torque when climbing grades. High speed range moves the machine quickly over longer distances.
Flushing Valves
Flushing valves in each propel circuit help keep hydraulic oil cool and clean for maximum system efficiency.
Gradeability and Machine Control
Two Propel Pump System
The two propel pump system on the CS423E has dedicated pumps to drive the heavy-duty, high torque rear wheel and drum motors independently. Should the drum or wheels begin to spin, there is always hydraulic flow to the non-spinning motor, allowing continuous tractive effort. This feature is especially useful in loose underfoot conditions.
Controllability
Controllability is another feature of dual propel pumps. The operator is able to stop, maintain machine position and change directions while on a grade.
Productivity
The CS423E is designed to achieve high productivity on level to mild grades.
Sloped Hood Design
Visibility
Visibility to tire edges and rear of the machine is exceptional. The sloped hood allows the operator to see obstacles measuring 1 meter (3'3") high located 1 meter (3'3") to the rear of the machine. Excellent visibility increases productivity when working near obstructions, or maneuvering around the job site.
Lockable Engine Hood
The lockable engine hood opens quickly and easily with the use of gas struts to provide good access to the engine, cooling system and all service points.
Sound Levels
Low sound levels for the operator and the ground crew are due to the engine hood and cooling air flow through the rear mounted radiator.
Operator's Station
Steering Console and Operational Gauges
The steering console and operation gauges are infinitely adjustable within the tilt range to the desired position of the operator. Entire console tilts for simple entrance and exit.
Single Lever Control
The single lever control for propel and vibratory On/Off provides simple and low effort operation. A padded adjustable wrist rest helps reduce operator fatigue.
Operator's Seat
The comfortable and durable seat has adjustable fore/aft position, bottom cushion height, suspension stiffness and flip-up arm rests.
Isolated Operator's Station
An isolated operator's station with heavy-duty rubber mounts reduces machine vibration transmitted to the operator.
Rubber Floor Mat
The rubber floor mat helps further isolate the operator from machine vibration and noise.
Open Platform with ROPS/FOPS Canopy
Working Environment
The CS423E has a spacious and comfortable working environment with all controls, levers, switches and gauges positioned to maximize productivity.
Unrestricted Visibility
From the platform there is unrestricted visibility to the drum and tire edge and to the side and rear of the machine.
Handrails
The platform is enclosed by handrails and features foot rests for sure footing and support when working on a grade.
Standard Equipment
Standard equipment includes two front-facing and two rear-facing working lights, handrails with foot rests, a lockable vandalism guard and a rear view mirror.
Reliability and Serviceability
Visual Indicators
Visual indicators allow easy check of radiator coolant, hydraulic oil tank level and air restriction indicator.
Operator's Station Tilts Forward
The operator's station tilts forward to allow convenient access to the hydraulic pumps.
Rear Mounted Cooling System
The rear mounted cooling system provides easy access for cleaning. Hydraulic oil cooler tilts rearward for additional access to the radiator.
Sealed-for-life Bearings
Sealed-for-life bearings in the articulation hitch never need to be greased.
500 Hour Engine Oil Change Interval
500 Hour Engine Oil Change Interval
Vibratory Bearing Lube Service
A 3 year/3,000 hour vibratory bearing lube service interval reduces maintenance.
Hydraulic Test Ports
Quick connect hydraulic test ports simplify system diagnostics.
Ecology Drains
Ecology drains provide an environmental method to drain fluids. They are included on the radiator, engine oil pan, hydraulic and fuel tank.
S•O•S (Scheduled Oil Sampling) Ports
S•O•S (Scheduled Oil Sampling) ports allow for simple fluid collection of engine oil, engine coolant and hydraulic oil.
Secure Hose Routing
Secure hose routing with polyethylene routing blocks reduces rubbing and increase service life.
Electrical System
Nylon braided wrap and all-weather connectors ensure electrical system integrity. Electrical wiring is color-coded, numbered and labeled with component identifiers to simplify troubleshooting.
Batteries
Maintenance-free Cat batteries are mounted in the rear of the machine and are protected by the engine hood. Cat batteries are specifically designed for maximum cranking power and protection against vibration.
Machine is Product Link Wire-ready
The Cat Product Link System (PLS) ensures maximum uptime and minimum repair costs by simplifying tracking of equipment fleets. The system provides automatic machine location and hour updates. The system can be obtained through your local Cat dealer.
