model D 9408 TI-E, turbocharged with intercooler, power
rating according to ISO 9249: 544 HP at 1900 rpm.
Option:
Water-cooled, V 12 Daimler Chrysler diesel engine,
model LOM 444 LA, turbocharged with intercooler, power
rating according to ISO 3046 IFN: 811 hp at 1900 rpm.
The automatic limiting load control adapts perfectly the
power of the main users to the present engine speed.
Fuel Tank: 214 gal capacity with continuous level
indicator and reserve warning.
Swing drive
Consists of single row ballbearing, fixed axial piston
hydraulic motor, spring loaded and hydraulically released
multi-disc holding brake, planetary gearbox and pinion.
Free swing with hydraulic moment control reduces wear to
a minimum, because rotation moment is sustained through
the hydraulic system by the diesel engine.
Swing speed from 0 - 4.5 rpm is continuously variable.

l Rig inclination display

The rig inclination in x- and y- direction is shown on the cab screen in large letters and in crosshair.

l Automatic rig alignment

A push button automatically adjusts the rig to vertical position, independent of the current inclination.

l Automatic parallel adjustment of rig

A push button increases or reduces the rig radius, without modifying the adjusted inclination.

l Working depth indicator

The length of the unreeled rope is measured on the crowd winch and displayed in large letters on the cab
screen.

l Vibrator control
The vibrator control consists of stepless adjustment of the vibrator frequency, automatic clamping head
system and stepless adjustment of eccentrics.

l Interface for PDE

An interface transmits the data of the control system, e.g. working depth to the connected PDE system.

Litronic control system

PDE = Process data recording PDE - diagram
(additional equipment)

This module constantly calculates and stores

the current working processes.

Measurements:
Measurements are constantly calculated during the
working process.
No special measuring process is required. External
systems can also be connected to the system.

Display of measurement data:

Measurement data relevant to the working process
are displayed on the monitor in the cab.
The operator can then control the process and,
if necessary, correct it.
Ñ
Example of a protocol (in required language):
Working process interruption:
The working process and the measurement can be
interrupted at any time.
The measurements are automatically continued
upon resumption of work.

Storage of measurement and machine data:

All data are stored on a memory card. This can be
read via a PC. Thereby an evaluation and
processing of data can also be performed at a later
time. For example, for:
l client certifications
l conveying daily production data, down time, etc.
l Soil condition report.

8900 572 14 06/2002 Subject to change without notice.

Printing data:
A protocol can be printed out from the cab printer
after each working process.

Data transmission:
A GSM modem can be connected to the PDE making
long distance data transmission possible.
