Sand salt spreader Stratos Lava series

for trucks

The Stratos Lava spreader series can be deployed whenever de-icing with conventional spreading agents is not practical due to extreme conditions. The Lava application guarantees lasting friction levels on the road surface by using heated water and gritting agents such as sand or split (small stones). Icy and slippery roads on packed snow, where wet salt, brine and dry salt no longer have any effect, are made passable thanks to the Stratos Lava. Highlights A permanently non-slip surface in the case of packed snow and ice Proven Stratos components combined with the improved Lava system Sand-water mixture of up to 90° degrees Your benefits Long-lasting safety: After treatment, the road surface maintains its grip for at least a week under even the most extreme conditions. Very large radius of action: Thanks to the large content volume of the spreader and the highly efficient spreading processes, a very large radius of action is possible. Easy service: All relevant components, such as heating units and hydraulic blocks, are easily accessible. The Lava principle The Stratos Lava has a heating unit and insulated water tanks in addition to the normal grit hopper and distribution system, which makes it suitable for normal winter road maintenance and for operating in the most extreme conditions. Before starting the Lava application, the water is heated to 45° degrees by a diesel-powered heating unit and pumped into the insulated tanks. During the spreading process, hot water is sprayed onto the spreading agent, and this warmed mixture is spread onto the road surface by the distribution system.
