Installation

When it comes to making the engine installation process smoother, look to the Cat C32. Using innovative technology solutions, the C32 was created to eliminate the need for thermal management and DEF, reducing the size of the overall engine package. And thanks to flexible aftertreatment mounting options, installing such a large engine just got a lot less complicated.

Advanced Features

The key to success for any machine is avoiding downtime as much as possible. Thanks to the DEF-free, the dual-can DOC Cat C32 with transparent regeneration, operators can stay focused on being productive for the long haul.

Ideal Applications

Industrial and construction applications such as: Dredges • Chippers • Grinders • Emergency water pumps • Rock drills

Total Cost of Ownership

Optimized to meet some of the most demanding operating cycles of just about any machine, the DEF-free Cat C32 can help owners and operators save on parts costs while also remaining maintenance-free for the engine's lifetime.

Cat Dealer Product Support

Bigger is better and that’s because the Cat C32 comes standard with a five-year warranty, world-class global dealer network support and simplified service routines.

Safety

Built to meet Caterpillar's strict safety standards and customers' most demanding work sites throughout the world, the Cat C32 is tried and tested to be safe and secure no matter where the job site is.
