325 Sandvik is introducing a line of new compact breakers that are aimed at carriers in the 1.9-12.5tonne weight range. The new 275kg BR555, 370kg BR777 and 505kg BR999 are aimed at use by rental fleets and are designed to suit an array of carriers. Features include a flange top-mount for adapter installation, pivoting hose connecting block, reversible manifold, right or left-hand hose connections, and the ability to accept a wide range of oil flows and pressures. Each model comes with the firm's proven constant blow energy (CBE) technology to ensure maximum impact energy with every blow for maximum productivity and profitability. High power-to-weight ratios are claimed as well as high productivity. The moulded box-type housing eliminates the need for tie rods, reducing maintenance times, and is said to minimise noise and vibration as well as protecting the hammer internals. The units are said to offer durability, reliability and serviceability and feature fewer parts for easier and reduced maintenance. Increased life and reduced owning and operating costs are also claimed.
