The Air Spectrum DC30 Dust Cannon is a high-performance dust suppression system designed for large construction, demolition, quarrying, recycling and industrial sites where effective airborne dust control is essential. Delivering powerful mist projection, intelligent coverage and reliable operation, the DC30 helps improve air quality, enhance site safety and support compliance with environmental regulations.
Our range of dust cannons creates a fine mist of water droplets which are then directed forwards by a high-flow fan. On the DC30, the water projects up to 30 metres, depending on placement and local wind conditions. As the mist travels through the air, it binds with airborne dust particles, bringing them safely to the ground and helping to keep the surrounding environment free from dust.
With a maximum coverage area of up to 2,830 m² per unit, the DC30 provides an efficient solution for controlling dust across large operational areas while reducing the need for multiple suppression units.
The DC30 has been engineered to provide consistent dust suppression across expansive sites where dust is generated continuously throughout the working day.
The cannon head can automatically oscillate through up to 350°, allowing a single unit to distribute mist across a wide area without constant repositioning. This makes it ideal for stockpiles, crushing and screening operations, loading areas, conveyor systems and bulk material handling.
For added flexibility, the cannon head can be adjusted between 0° and 70°, allowing operators to direct the mist exactly where it is needed. Whether targeting ground-level dust or elevated processing equipment and stockpiles, the DC30 provides accurate, effective coverage.
Available as either a static installation or a mobile trailer-mounted unit, the DC30 can be integrated into both permanent dust suppression systems and temporary site operations.
The DC30 is the ideal choice for organisations requiring powerful dust suppression across large sites without stepping up to the maximum-capacity model.
| Model | Best suited for | Maximum Throw |
|---|---|---|
| DC10 | Compact sites and confined spaces | 13 metres |
| DC20 | Medium-sized construction and recycling sites | 20 metres |
| DC30 | Large industrial, quarrying and demolition sites | 30 metres |
| DC40 | Large-scale operations requiring maximum coverage | 40 metres |
If your site demands greater throw distance or larger area coverage, the DC40 Dust Cannon provides the next level of performance for major infrastructure projects, mining operations, ports and extensive material handling facilities.
The DC30 is available in two configurations, allowing you to choose the solution that best suits your site and operational requirements.
DC30 – Fixed Dust Cannon
The standard DC30 is a standalone dust cannon designed for permanent or semi-permanent installations. The unit is plumbed directly into a mains water supply and connected to mains electricity, making it an ideal solution for fixed locations where reliable utilities are readily available. It’s well suited to processing plants, recycling facilities, quarries and other sites requiring continuous dust suppression.
DC30M – Mobile Dust Cannon
The DC30M combines the same high-performance dust cannon with a robust trailer-mounted base, creating a fully self-contained mobile dust suppression solution. Complete with an integrated 2,000-litre water bowser and diesel generator, the DC30M can be deployed quickly to locations where mains water and power are unavailable. This makes it ideal for construction sites, demolition projects, temporary works and remote locations, providing powerful dust suppression wherever it is needed.
The DC30 is suitable for a wide range of industries, including:
With decades of experience in environmental control technology, Air Spectrum designs dust suppression systems that deliver dependable performance in the toughest environments. The DC30 combines long-range mist projection with intelligent positioning and wide-area coverage to provide effective dust control for larger industrial applications.
Whether protecting workers, neighbouring communities or sensitive equipment, the DC30 delivers reliable dust suppression that helps create cleaner, safer and more productive working environments.
