AGGREGATES MANAGER / March 2018 7 Low water consumption dust control BossTek debuts the DustBoss DB-30 Fusion, a transportable atomized mist unit, engineered with an electric motor and 30 kW generator. Mounted on a rugged trailer, the unit can be supplied by a standard 5/8-inch garden hose. It has an adjustable throw angle ranging from 0 to 50 degrees of elevation and a range of approximately 100 feet in calm conditions. The standard configuration includes user-definable 359-degree oscillation to cover up to 31,000 square feet. It can be optimized with a variable frequen- cy drive to adjust fan speed, while an optional dosing pump is available for metering of additives. It consumes 2.5 gallons of water per minute. A touch-screen panel allows operators to control oscillation, fan, and water.

Fairbanks Scales Inc. | www.fairbanks.com Compact impact crushing plant EvoQuip will introduce its Cobra 230 at AGG1. The latest unit in its compact crushing and screening line is an impact crusher designed for quick setup, intuitive operation, and ease of transport. The crusher design focuses on material flow, with each belt section becoming wider as material flows through the unit to promote unrestricted material flow. It also offers a short distance from the crusher discharge to the magnet and the ability to lower the product conveyor while running. The crusher setting can be changed without any tools using hydraulic assist, which is standard on the machine. Evoquip, A Terex Brand | www.terex.com Quantifies hard-to-measure slurries Hawk Measurement Systems debuts the OptioLaser S300, which can be used to accurately measure all liquids. Due to its narrow beam divergence, it can measure through grates, narrow passages, and next to flat walls. This allows it to measure difficult liquids such as slurries and operate without the need of any calibration. Hawk Measurement Systems | www.hawkmeasure.com
