Finn Corporation, a leading manufacturer of hydroseeding and erosion control equipment in North America, has introduced the first ever large-tank HydroSeeder with a CARB-compliant, Tier 4 Final diesel engine. The new machine is powered by a Cummins QSB 4.5-liter diesel engine and meets the state of California’s emissions standards for diesel powered machinery. The Finn Titan 400 HydroSeeder unit was purchased by a California firm that provides a variety of erosion control services in the western United States.
Tier 4 Final/Euro Stage IV engine compliance as legislated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reduces exhaust emissions by more than 90% through integration of engine and fuel controls. Finn isn’t federally required to convert its large-tank HydroSeeders to Tier 4 Final compliance until the end of 2017. However, when a customer needed it more quickly to meet job requirements, the Finn team of engineers and production crew came together to equip and manufacture the environmentally advanced machine.
