KEMTRON HDD™ Prowler™ Mud Recycling System
Prowler 250 Pro™
Prowler 400 Pro™
Key Features
Rear Cuttings Chute – Solids from the shaker are conveyed off the rear of the unit for easy disposal removal.
Hydrocyclones – Vortex 4 four-inch desilter hydrocyclones with isolation valves for second stage sand and silt removal.
High-Shear Hopper – Jet Shear Hopper with venturi nozzle and foldout table makes chemical loading safe and efficient.
Centrifugal Pumps – Dedicated Vision CS™ Series centrifugal slurry pumps for mud guns, desilter, and transfer operations.
High-Performance Mud Recycling. Now Track-Mounted.
Astec’s KEMTRON HDD™ Prowler™ Series redefines mobile mud management by combining industry-leading cleaning performance with the agility of a hydraulic track-driven platform. Designed for horizontal directional drilling, geothermal loop installation, and water well contractors, the Prowler line is built to go where trailer units can’t—tight urban sites, off-road terrain, and restricted access zones.
From the compact Prowler 250™, ideal for 65–200 gpm rigs, to the high-capacity Prowler 400™, engineered for 200–350 gpm pump flows, the series delivers unmatched solids control without sacrificing maneuverability. Both systems leverage the multi-pass cleaning technology and rugged components that define the KEMTRON HDD™ brand.
KEMTRON HDD™ Prowler™ Benefits
Self-Propelled, Jobsite-Ready
- Hydraulic-driven track undercarriage makes setup and relocation fast and flexible—no trailer or crane required.
