5 HP Diesel Plate Compactor – Heavy-Duty Soil Compaction Machine, 180 kg, 5 Ton CapacityThe 5 HP Diesel Plate Compactor is a robust and high-capacity compaction machine designed for heavy-duty soil, sand, and gravel compaction in civil construction, roadwork, and large-scale landscaping projects. Engineered for durability and performance, this machine is powered by a 5 HP diesel engine, providing the torque and endurance needed for intensive compaction work. Weighing 180 kg and offering a compaction force of up to 5 tons, it is ideal for professionals seeking reliability and deep compaction in challenging environments.Key Features:High-Performance 5 HP Diesel Engine:The powerful diesel engine ensures long-running capability, fuel efficiency, and high torque output. It provides strong performance even in remote or demanding job sites where electricity may not be available.Heavy-Duty Steel Compaction Plate:Fitted with a solid, wear-resistant steel base plate, the compactor delivers consistent compaction and extended life under demanding conditions. The large plate area ensures optimal ground coverage and uniform density across the surface.Up to 5 Ton Compaction Capacity:Designed to deliver a compaction force of up to 5 tons, this machine is ideal for deep compaction of sub-bases, offering unmatched strength and stability for foundation, road, and trench preparation.High Vibration Frequency for Efficient Results:The machine features a high vibration frequency, allowing for quick and efficient compaction. It penetrates deep into the soil, eliminating air pockets and ensuring solid, level surfaces for construction.Enhanced Operator Comfort and Control:Despite its powerful performance, the machine is equipped with vibration-dampened handles and a balanced center of gravity, which ensure ease of use and reduce operator fatigue. Its forward travel design allows smooth navigation even in confined workspaces.Fuel-Efficient and Low Maintenance:The diesel engine consumes less fuel per operating hour compared to petrol engines and offers longer service intervals. This makes the machine cost-effective in the long run and ideal for prolonged use in large projects.Heavy Weight Advantage:At 180 kg, this machine provides natural downward force to improve compaction efficiency without the need for excessive vibration, reducing wear and tear on the engine and plate.Applications:The 5 HP Diesel Plate Compactor is versatile and can be used in a variety of demanding environments, including:Roadwork and Paving Projects: Ideal for compacting base layers before laying asphalt or paving blocks.Foundation and Sub-Base Preparation: Ensures solid support for building foundations and concrete slabs.Trenching and Pipe Laying: Suitable for compacting soil around trenches, pipelines, and cable conduits.Industrial Landscaping Projects: Used in compaction of large outdoor areas before installing driveways, sidewalks, or landscaping features.Remote and Rural Job Sites: Diesel-powered operation makes it perfect for sites without access to electricity.Technical Specifications (Typical):Specification DetailsEngine Type Diesel, Single CylinderEngine Power 5 HPWeight 180 kgCompaction Capacity Up to 5 TonBase Plate Size Approx. 500 x 600 mmCompaction Depth Up to 35–40 cm (depending on soil type)Vibration Frequency 4,500 – 5,000 VPMTravel Speed 20 – 25 m/min (typical)Fuel Tank Capacity 3.5 – 5 litersStart Type Recoil/Manual StartNoise Level Medium (with muffler)Mobility Rear wheels for easy transportationAdvantages:Diesel engine offers higher fuel efficiency and longer run times than petrol counterparts.5-ton compaction capacity ensures deep, stable compaction even in dense soils.Durable steel plate ensures consistent performance and long lifespan.180 kg weight increases natural compaction force, reducing required vibration energy.Ideal for off-grid or rural construction sites where power sources may be limited.Lower maintenance frequency compared to fuel-based compactors.Compact and maneuverable for use in both open and confined spaces.Safety Considerations:Operators must observe proper safety protocols when using the 5 HP Diesel Plate Compactor:Always wear protective gear, including ear protection, gloves, and steel-toed boots.Ensure the work area is free from loose debris or unstable footing.Check for fuel or oil leaks before each use and ensure proper ventilation when operating.Never leave the machine running unattended.Regularly inspect the compactor for plate wear, loose fasteners, and engine performance.The 5 HP Diesel Plate Compactor is a high-performance, industrial-grade solution for professionals who demand power, durability, and efficiency. Its rugged design, 5-ton compaction force, and diesel-powered reliability make it a trusted machine for infrastructure development, road building, and heavy-duty soil compaction in a variety of field conditions.
