John Deere Diesels for Dredgers
IMS , a division of Liquid Waste Technology LLC , has opted to install John Deere engines on its entire Versi-Dredge product line.
Versi-Dredge is a self-propelled, transportable dredger suited for use in marinas, rivers, canals and quarries.
Every diesel power unit installed on the Versi-Dredge product line will now include a weather resistant enclosure to prolong the life of the engine as well as adjoining hydraulic motors, pumps and hoses.
The power unit enclosures come standard with security key locks, making the engine vandal proof.
The engine control is completely digital and mounted in an ergonomic control console.
The operator controls engine start-up and shutdown with a button on the digital interface.
For noise sensitive areas such as marinas, the John Deere engines have optional silencer packages called the Whisper Pack. In combination with IMS’ Starwheel Drive self propulsion system, which allows the dredger to be operated cable free, the new Versi-Dredge line provides one of the least invasive dredging systems currently available.
