R 9350

Sustainable Manufacturing Process

With an ever-present green focus, Liebherr
contributes to the sustainable development:

• Systematic risk analysis for new materials

qualifi cation

• Promoted recovery waste management

• Controlled non-recyclable waste elimination

• Eco-friendly material selection

(95% of material used on machine is recyclable)

Environment

Liebherr considers the preservation of the environment as a major challenge
for the present and future. Sustainability underpins Liebherr’s machines; from
raw materials selection to manufacturing process employed. Liebherr provides
solutions that allow customers to balance high performance with environmental
consciousness.

Minimized Impact on Life

Optimized Fuel
Consumption

Constant power regulation of the hydraulic
system and engine output optimizes equipment fuel
effi ciency, depending on the application. Fan coolers
speed is adjusted on-demand in order to optimize
energy consumption. The automatic idling system
reduces the engine speed when the machine is at rest.

Controlled Emission
Rejections

The R 9350 is powered by a high horsepower diesel
engine which complies with the USA/EPA Tier 1 or
Tier 2 emissions limits. The electric drive version is
an effi cient alternative for applications that do not
require frequent machine relocation. The power
system makes the R 9350 cost effective without
compromising productivity whilst reducing the
machines impact on the environment.

Sustainable Design and Manufacturing Process

Extended Components
and Fluids Lifetime

Liebherr is constantly working on ways to extend
component life. Through the Exchange Components
program, superior lubrication systems, and the
reinforcement of parts under stress, Liebherr can
reduce frequency of part replacement. The result
minimizes environmental impact and lowers the
overall cost of ownership.

Product Life-Cycle
Management

Subject to the stringent European Program for the
regulation of the use of chemical substances in the
manufacturing process REACH*, Liebherr under-
takes a global evaluation to minimize the impacts of
hazardous materials.

*REACH is the European Community Regulation on chemicals and their safe use (EC1907/2006)
It deals with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemical Substances.

Sound Attenuation Kit (Option)

Developed with the latest noise
measurement technologies, this
approach is based on both removal
of noise at the source and passive
sound attenuation:

• Noise-optimized fan regulation

• Larger and additional muffl ers

with tail pipe absorbers

• Sound attenuation on louvers,

doors and walls

• Additional high volume sound

attenuation boxes
