Low Operating Cost
Differential Wheel Torque Control
When traveling through a curve, the drive system
will automatically adjust the torque of the rear wheel
motors in order to maximize traction and minimize
tire wear during low speed handling.
Cost Effectiveness of Dry vs. Wet Brake Systems
The T 282 C utilizes dynamic braking. Dry disc brakes
are available for emergency situations. The air-cooled
dry disc brakes do not require additional oil, pumps,
filters, and cooling circuits to operate. Liebherr braking
systems comply with ISO 3450 standard and offer the
lowest cost per tonne.
Hauling more for less is Liebherr’s trademark to achieve maximum profitability.
Liebherr allows for higher output at a lower operating cost by offering durable, yet
lighter equipment.
Less Fuel Consumption
The T 282 C is a fuel efficient truck. Its AC drive system is coupled with a main
alternator powered by a high horsepower engine. The drive system provides con-
tinuous acceleration and dynamic braking without shifting gears.
By incorporating an efficient load management, the T 282 C requires less operat-
ing hours to meet production targets. As a consequence, associated costs are
minimized, such as: fuel, tires, labor, spare parts, lubricants and maintenance. The
chart below illustrates the operating hours and fuel required of two leading com-
petitors to equal the production seen of the T 282 C at 60,000 hours.
Low Empty Vehicle Weight (EVW)
The new Litronic Plus AC drive system weighs less than both mechanical drive
systems and old versions of AC drives. It requires the use of lighter components,
which reduces the EVW.
The T 282 C innovative ”Stress Flow” design requires lighter steel structures and
castings, than other conventional truck frames, while maintaining durability.
