About Water Sprinkler Trucks
Water sprinkler trucks (GSS series) are versatile municipal water delivery vehicles used for road flushing, dust suppression, green-space irrigation and emergency water transport. Yutong's GSS range covers 16-ton, 18-ton and 25-ton chassis configurations, each equipped with front spray bars, rear water cannons, side sprinklers and a garden-hose reel. The 18-ton HX variant offers enhanced tank design for specific regional requirements. These trucks serve dual-duty roles: daytime road flushing and greening, and evening dust control on construction-adjacent routes. When specifying a sprinkler truck, buyers should consider tank volume against daily route length, spray-angle requirements and whether a mist-cannon option (for dust suppression) will be fitted. All Yutong sprinkler trucks use corrosion-resistant tank liners and quick-connect plumbing for fast refilling at municipal hydrants.
Water Sprinkler Trucks Range
Why Choose Yutong Water Sprinkler Trucks
A water sprinkler truck does three related jobs from one tank: it sprays water onto the road surface to settle dust, flushes the kerb and gutter, and irrigates green belts and landscaping. The Yutong GSS series (YTZ5160GSST0D6, YTZ5181GSST0D6, YTZ5181GSST0D6-HX) carries a dedicated water tank, a rear spray bar, a side flush and a top-mounted irrigation gun that can be aimed at roadside trees and planters. That multi-use deck is why a sprinkler is the most versatile truck in a municipal fleet — it is the same chassis that does road watering in summer and greening irrigation through the growing season.
The tank and pump spec decides how long a truck works before refill. A 16-ton class unit suits a typical urban road-watering loop; the -HX greening variant is configured for long-range irrigation into medians and roadside landscaping rather than just surface spray. Unlike a dust-suppression mist cannon, a sprinkler delivers coarse droplets directly onto the surface and vegetation, which is right where you want visible wetting rather than airborne mist.
Because the truck spends its life carrying water, the tank lining, pump and valve spec is built for continuous liquid duty, and Yutong controls build quality under ISO 9001, with hydrostatic pressure testing of the tank before dispatch.
How to Choose the Right Water Sprinkler Truck
Match tank capacity to route length and refill points
Size the tank so one fill covers a full road-watering loop without a mid-shift refill. A 16-ton class unit (YTZ5160GSST0D6) covers a compact urban loop; larger units (YTZ5181GSST0D6) suit longer arterial routes where a refill point is far apart. Map the loop distance and hydrant positions before deciding.
Choose the -HX greening variant for landscaping
The YTZ5181GSST0D6-HX variant is configured for greening irrigation: a longer-range top gun and hose connection for medians, roadside trees and parkland. If your main job is road surface watering, the standard GSS is enough; if a large share of the work is landscaping, specify the -HX.
Decide sprinkler vs mist cannon for dust control
A sprinkler wets the road surface and vegetation directly with coarse droplets. A dust-suppression mist cannon launches fine mist into the air to bind airborne dust at construction and demolition sites. For settling dust on the road itself, a sprinkler is correct; for suppressing airborne dust in the air, a mist-cannon truck is the better tool.
Common Applications
Road surface dust settling and summer watering
Arterial roads in dry seasons where raised dust affects residents. Recommended: GSS sprinklers (YTZ5160GSST0D6, YTZ5181GSST0D6) on a mapped watering loop.
Green belt and roadside tree irrigation
Medians and roadside landscaping through the growing season. Recommended: the -HX greening variant (YTZ5181GSST0D6-HX) with long-range top gun.
Gutter and kerb flushing
Flushing accumulated grit from the kerb line. Recommended: a sprinkler with the side-flush function, often combined with a sweeper on the same route.
Construction site water supply and dust wetting
Supplying water for site access roads and wetting haul roads. Recommended: a sprinkler for direct surface wetting; add a mist cannon where airborne dust is the problem.
Emergency water transport and spray
Fire support and emergency water supply. Recommended: a sprinkler with the top gun and pump capable of delivering water over distance as a secondary function.
Export Compliance & After-Sales Support
Sprinkler trucks are exported to the destination market's rules: diesel powertrains calibrate to Euro II or Euro V, and right-hand-drive conversions are available for relevant markets. Each order goes out with factory certificate of conformity, packing list, commercial invoice and certificate of origin, plus the tank hydrostatic test report the tender expects.
Vehicles carry a 12-month or 20,000 km warranty, backed by ISO 9001 quality controls. Wear items — water pumps, valve seals, spray nozzles and the top-gun swivel — are supplied as spare-parts kits, and the export engineering team responds within 48 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can a water sprinkler truck do?
A sprinkler truck sprays water onto the road surface to settle dust, flushes the kerb and gutter, and irrigates green belts and roadside trees via a top-mounted gun. It is the multi-use truck that covers road watering in summer and landscaping through the growing season.
What is the difference between a sprinkler and a dust-suppression mist cannon?
A sprinkler delivers coarse droplets directly onto the road surface and vegetation. A dust-suppression mist cannon launches fine mist into the air to bind airborne dust at construction and demolition sites. Use a sprinkler to wet the surface; use a mist cannon to suppress airborne dust.
How do I choose the right tank capacity?
Size the tank so one fill covers a full watering loop without a mid-shift refill. A 16-ton class unit (YTZ5160GSST0D6) covers a compact urban loop; larger units (YTZ5181GSST0D6) suit long arterial routes. Map the loop distance and hydrant positions first.
When do I need the -HX greening variant?
The YTZ5181GSST0D6-HX adds a longer-range top gun and hose connection for medians, roadside trees and parkland. Choose it when a large share of the work is landscaping rather than road surface watering.
Can a sprinkler truck help in fire emergencies?
Yes, as a secondary function the top gun and pump can deliver water over distance for emergency water support, but the truck is not a fire engine and should be sized for its primary municipal watering duty.
What chassis and right-hand-drive options exist?
Sprinkler superstructures mount on mainstream chassis such as Dongfeng, Sinotruk (Howo), Foton and JAC. Right-hand-drive variants are available for the UK, Australia, Southeast Asia and parts of Africa.
What is the warranty and spare-parts support?
The standard warranty is 12 months or 20,000 km. Wear items such as water pumps, valve seals, spray nozzles and the top-gun swivel are supplied as kits, and technical queries are answered within 48 hours.
