The EH3500AC continues to prove itself as an exceedingly capable and reliable solution to mine applications worldwide.
AC Drive Proven Performance & Economic Advantages
The Hitachi engineered AC drives make your hauler a more valuable asset in your mining operation. Better performance, higher availability, and significant reductions in maintenance and operating costs - result in a lower cost per tonne and a higher return on your investment.
High-Powered Engine
The Cummins QSKTA50-CE engine with 1 491 kW provides excellent reliability and low fuel consumption while meeting the emission regulation of U.S. EPA Tier 2.
Long Frame Life
A fabricated box section and rectangular frame rail construction provides superior resistance to
bending and torsional loads. One-piece top and bottom flanges eliminate cross member tie-in joints and provide a larger exposed center area for access to major components.
Tough Body
The Hitachi horizontal stiffener design minimizes stress concentrations by dissipating load shocks over the entire body length. Closely spaced stiffeners provide additional protection by minimizing distances between unsupported areas.
Hitachi AC drive technology provides superior truck performance with higher top speeds, better gradeability and stronger retardation.
Hitachi inverter modules provide high rigid truck controlability and efficiency. The Hitachi AC wheel motors do not have commutators and brushes which improves truck performance by providing reduced maintenance costs, higher truck availability and higher travel speeds. Higher truck availability and travel speed result in more productivity and lower costs per tonne.
