ALABAMA – Mid-South Testing of Decatur, AL recently took delivery of their second Mud Cat® 225D after their first Mud Cat 225D (formerly called the model 815) performed 17 years of reliable service. Both dredges are currently operating with the newest unit working on a 17 ft. (5.18m) deep, 8-acre industrial pond.
“When you have a dredge in your fleet for almost two decades and it is extremely reliable, you don’t think twice about where to get your next dredge. You go with what works,” said Britney Green, President, Mid-South Testing, Inc.
Mid-South Testing ordered the brand new 2024 Mud Cat 225D with the 4-point cable drive system, liner protection wheels, and centralized lubrication system. Additionally, the dredge came with both the SolidsMaster® cutter bar for breaking up harder deposits and the EnviroMaster® cutter bar for conveying higher percent solids in industrial sludge environments. The dredge was delivered within a couple weeks after order and start-up and training were promptly scheduled. Additional options on the Mud Cat 225D include a radio remote for high H2S environments, flow and density meters, patented WeedMaster® cutterhead for converting the dredge into a hydraulic weed harvester, and a side-caster discharge attachment.
