100-Ton Hauler Saves Fuel, Nixes Maintenance Hazards
The T 236 features a double pole
battery, starter motor and hoist system
isolators as standard. In addition, the
truck provides an innovative drive system
inhibit, electrically interlocked to grounding
devices for each plug and drive power
module. It operates on 690 volts AC
(VAC) and 900 volts direct current (VDC),
and site technicians conduct system
maintenance. Liebherr’s Litronic Plus
Isolation system, through the elimination
of hazards by design, ensures the safety
of maintenance personnel.
The in-line electrical power train
layout minimizes cable length. Maintenance-
free IP 68-rated plug and drive
power modules ensure reliable operation
in all-weather situations, the company reported.
The truck uses an oil immersed
braking system with four corner retarding
capabilities.
Liebeherr said the truck is currently
not commercially available, but pre-series
units will be released in select markets.
