About SK210HLC-10
Unlike existing hybrid excavators that employ super capacitors, Kobelco SK210HLC-10 is working with a large size Lithium – Ion battery. In addition, a powerful 25 kW generator motor supplies energy to the battery or – if the engine load is high – assist the combustion engine.
The usage of Lithium-Ion battery technology results in both further fuel saving as well as a smooth operation of the engine.
The SK210HLC-10 is using the same engine as the standard 20-ton model. This implies that there is no compromise to performance in case of Kobelco hybrid. This 20-ton engine runs at a slower pace for smooth operation and outstanding exhaust emissions.
Swing movement is completely electric and therefore very easy to operate. The kinetic energy, which is a result from swing deceleration, is regenerated and charged into the battery.
