TRAP Tank
Maybe the best innovation ever by Klein Products, this new tank design in a trapezoid shape dramatically improved the operating safety of mobile water trucks. The shape, design and internal structure of the tank reduced the center of gravity, perfected weight distribution and improved visibility. These features provide end users with the ultimate in a safe operating water distributor. U.S. patented.
SMARTSPRAY®
This unique, innovative hydraulic circuit enables full and complete independent control of water pump functionality from a truck or other prime mover engine. It provides safety, efficiency and added functionality all at an affordable price.
SMARTCONTROL®
Using the latest digital and “CAN” technology, we have innovated an operator interface that is touch pad or hard key controlled, safe to operate, ergonomic, and very easy to install and troubleshoot.
SOFTSHIFT™
This hydraulic circuit removes any chance of damaging spike loads on water pumps when shifted on or off. It also provides consistent optimum water pump speed regardless of engine power, RPM or speed.
Porto-Tower®
The Klein Porto-Tower revolutionized dirt contracting. This mobile, self-contained, quick-discharge water tower system changed the way contractors did their jobs forever, and in the process, has saved owners millions of dollars. Today, the Porto-Tower is the industry standard and the best product in its class.
Tractor Scraper Conversion Tanker
We pioneered the conversion of a tractor scraper to a tractor tanker (commonly known today as a “water pull”). The concept of converting any brand of tractor scraper to a water tanker by utilizing the existing prime mover power unit and rear end and replacing the scraper bowl with a tanker was a Klein Products first! Today, our tractor scraper conversion tankers remain a very popular water distribution machine.
The New Look
In the early years, from the 1950s to early 1960s, water distributor tank systems were either round or rectangular. Klein Products was the first to introduce a tank shape that was a modified elliptical shape. This new look provided more gallons per inch than a round tank and proved to be a much stronger tank than a square or rectangle shape. Today, the dual radius, modified elliptical shape is the industry standard.
