High reliability
Advantages of the Liebherr cooling system
Suctioning fan
As the air flow is directed straight to the cooler, small
particles, such as sand do not cause any wear
With the suctioning fan, the „Hub hole“ in the centre of
the cooler is used so that the cooling performance is
considerably increased
Fan with reversible rotation direction (option)
The rotation of the fan reverses automatically each 30
minutes.
This feature is recommended for applications such landfill
and stockpiling coal and woodchips (dusty applications)

39
High reliability
Advantages of Liebherr Cooling System
Radiator with big fin gaps
Less wear (also in sand applications)
Reduced blocking of radiator vents
due to the high fin distances
Hydrostatic driven fans
Constant engine and oil temperature
In case of maximum engine power the
hydrostatic fan remains at maximum
speed
Quick warm up of the diesel engine
Less noise level
40
High reliability
Proved and tested components

41
Constant engine speed keeps fuel
consumption low
Low engine speed (1.600 rpm)
provides best combustion
The engine nominal speed is in
the region of the loweset specific
fuel consumption – maximum
operating economy is assured
Low fuel consumption

Gearbox is out of dirty area - means less stress load of gearbox sealing
Liebherr says:
There sticks material between sprockets and bushes too (pic 1)
Cumulated material will enter space between sprocket and track frame
(1) and presses gearbox from the bottom up (2) – high stress load of final
