DREDGING EQUIPMENT : IHC : IHC BEAVER

IHC Beaver dredgers are well-known for their robust construction, reliable operation and excellent performance. The submerged pump diesel engines and the hydraulic installation are operated by the dredge master from the operating desk, so that all operations for dredging can be executed by one person. 

Features
The main features of this type are the deck-mounted engine room and the submerged dredgepump which is directly driven by a tandem set of Caterpillar diesel engines through a pivoting gearbox. This pump drive combines the production benefits of submerged dredgepump with the high efficiency of the direct drive.

Applications
IHC Beavers are mainly used for dam, harbour, canal cleaning and dredging as well as some special applications such as mining and sand exctracting from lagoon, river and seasides.
