Technical description
Hydraulic system
The main pumps are operated by a distributor gearbox. Axial piston
displacement pumps work in open circuits supplying oil only when
needed (flow control on demand).
The hydraulic pressure peaks are absorbed by the integrated
automatic pressure compensation, which relieves the pump and
saves fuel.
Pumps for working tools
2x 63 gal/min
Separate pump for kinematics
37 gal/min
Hydraulic oil tank
132 gal
Max. working pressure
5076 PSI
The cleaning of the hydraulic oils occurs via an electronically
monitored pressure and return filter.
Any clogging is shown on the display in the cab.
The use of synthetic environmentally friendly oil is also possible.
Auxiliary winch
Line pull effective (1
st
layer)
11,240 lbf
Rope diameter
14 mm
Line speed
0-262.5 ft/min
Crawlers
Propulsion through axial piston motor, hydraulically released spring
loaded multi–disc brake, maintenance-free crawler tracks, hydraulic
chain tensioning device.
Drive speed
0 – 0.49 mph
Track force
98,470 lbf
Width of 3-web grousers (option 31.5 inch)
23.6 inch
Control
The control system – developed and manufactured by Liebherr – is
designed to withstand extreme temperatures and the many heavy–
duty construction tasks for which this machine has been designed.
Complete machine operating data are displayed on a high resolution
monitor screen. A GSM/GPRS telematics module allows for remote
inquiry of machine data and operational conditions. To ensure clarity
of the information on display, different levels of data are shown in
enlarged lettering and symbols.
Control and monitoring of the sensors are also handled by this high
technology system. Error indications are automatically displayed on
the monitor in clear text. The machine is equipped with proportional
control for all movements, which can be carried out simultaneously.
Two joysticks are required for operation. Pedal control can be
changed to hand control.
Option:
PDE
®
: Process data recording
Noise emission
Noise emissions correspond with 2000/14/EC directive on noise
emission by equipment used outdoors.
Rope crowd system
Crowd force push/pull
44,965/44,965 lbf
Line pull (effective)
22,480 lbf
Travel
39.4 ft
Line speed
0-335 ft/min
The winches are noted for compact, easily mounted design.
Propulsion is via a maintenance-free planetary gearbox in oil bath.
Load support by the hydraulic system; additional safety factor by
a spring–loaded, multi–disc holding brake. All line pull values are
effective values. The efficiency factor of approx. 25% has already
been deducted.
