Operating Liquids
Upon request, all Liebh err offshore crane s can be run on bio-diesel to comply with local regulations and the transition to alternative
fuels in customer equipment fleets.
Liebherr offers biodegradable oil especially developed for the Liebherr product line. In combination with spectrographic oil analysis
techniques, oil lifetime is extended
thus providing components such as pumps and motors with even lo nger lifetimes.
Eco-control
On request, Liebherr offers a special power management feature for diesel engine driven cranes. This "Eco-control" renders savings
in fuel consumption of up to 25% depending on the crane application and therefore results in reduction of noise exposure and
environmental contaminants.
With its headquarters located in an environmentally protected area, ecological issues have always been high on the agenda for
Liebherr. The implementation of economy software, biodegradable oils and special noise insulation throughout its offshore crane
range are just a few examples of Liebherr’s ecological awareness.
