For effective dust control on active sites, dust cannons provide a reliable and high-performance solution for suppressing airborne particles. These systems are designed to significantly reduce dust-related health risks while improving air quality across a wide range of applications, including recycling facilities, demolition projects, quarries, ports, and bulk material handling areas.
Our dust cannons are available in static, trailer-mounted, and tracked configurations, allowing them to be deployed quickly and adapted to different site layouts. Their compact and transportable design makes them easy to integrate into day-to-day operations, while low maintenance requirements and efficient water usage help keep running costs under control. Each unit is operated via a clear, user-friendly control system, ensuring effective dust suppression with minimal setup time.
ODS primarily provides dust cannons on a hire basis, offering a flexible and cost-effective option for short-term projects or changing site requirements. Purchase options are available where required, but hire remains the preferred solution for most sites due to its flexibility, reduced upfront cost, and included support.

Live events, outdoor venues, and industrial cooling applications
HOW IT WORKS:
Water is atomised through specially designed nozzles to create a fine mist. A high-velocity fan generates airflow that disperses this mist evenly across the target area.
As the mist travels through the air, the atomised water droplets collide with airborne dust particles. These particles bind to the droplets, increasing their weight and causing them to settle safely to the ground. This process removes dust from the air and effectively suppresses airborne emissions.

Triton 20 dust cannon
The Triton 20 Dust Cannon is a compact and highly effective dust suppression solution designed for sites that require reliable control of airborne dust without excessive complexity or footprint. Commonly used across construction, demolition, recycling, quarrying, and bulk material handling environments, the Triton 20 Dust Cannon provides targeted dust control where space, mobility, and efficiency are key considerations.
The Triton 20 Dust Cannon is particularly well suited to sites where dust generation is localised but persistent, such as material transfer points, stockpiles, vehicle loading areas, and processing zones. By using atomised water mist combined with controlled airflow, the system captures airborne dust particles before they can spread across the site or beyond its boundary. This helps improve air quality, protect workers, and reduce the risk of complaints or regulatory attention.
At the heart of the Triton 20 Dust Cannon is a proven dust suppression method that uses fine water droplets to bind with airborne dust. These droplets are projected into the air using a fan-assisted system, allowing the mist to travel across the target area. As dust particles collide with the mist, they attach to the droplets, increasing in weight and settling safely to the ground. This process removes dust from the air without oversaturating the working area, making the Triton 20 Dust Cannon both effective and efficient.
One of the key advantages of the Triton 20 Dust Cannon is its compact and mobile design. Unlike larger dust cannons designed for wide open sites, the Triton 20 Dust Cannon offers controlled coverage that can be easily repositioned as site layouts change. This makes it an ideal option for dynamic working environments where dust sources move as operations progress. Its mobility also allows operators to respond quickly to changing conditions, such as wind direction or increased dust activity.
The Triton 20 Dust Cannon is commonly supplied on a hire basis, making it a practical solution for short-term projects, phased construction works, or sites with temporary dust control requirements. Hiring the Triton 20 Dust Cannon allows operators to access effective dust suppression without the upfront cost of purchasing equipment, while also benefiting from maintained, site-ready machinery. This flexibility is particularly valuable for projects with defined timelines or variable dust control needs.
Ease of use is another important feature of the Triton 20 Dust Cannon. The system is designed for straightforward operation, with intuitive controls that allow operators to adjust mist output and direction to suit site conditions. This ensures dust suppression remains effective without requiring specialist training or constant adjustment. Low maintenance requirements further support its suitability for hire, helping to minimise downtime and disruption on site.
In addition to improving on-site conditions, the Triton 20 Dust Cannon plays an important role in supporting environmental and health and safety objectives. Uncontrolled dust can pose risks to workers, reduce visibility around plant and equipment, and contribute to nuisance for neighbouring properties. By deploying a dedicated dust suppression system such as the Triton 20 Dust Cannon, site operators can demonstrate proactive dust management and reduce the likelihood of complaints or enforcement action.
The Triton 20 Dust Cannon is widely used across a range of industries, including recycling facilities, demolition sites, quarries, ports, and waste handling operations. Its balance of performance, mobility, and ease of deployment makes it suitable for sites that need dependable dust control without the scale or complexity of larger systems.
For projects requiring a compact, effective, and flexible dust suppression solution, the Triton 20 Dust Cannon offers a proven approach to managing airborne dust. Whether used as a standalone unit or alongside other dust control measures, it provides reliable performance that supports safer working conditions, improved air quality, and better site compliance.
