Hyster® Tier 4 Final Big Trucks Offer Big Fuel Savings
Greenville, N.C. – Hyster Company has launched its first Tier 4 Final compliant big truck models with fuel savings of up to 25 percent, ideal for demanding ports, terminals and heavy industry. The company’s aggressive move toward Tier 4 Final compliance is the result of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requiring additional emission reductions over Tier 4 Interim products.
“Building on the operational success of our Tier 4 Interim products, we’ve been able to achieve even greater fuel savings for our 2014 models – reducing the total cost of ownership while meeting the new emission regulations,” said Brett Schemerhorn, president of big trucks for Hyster Company. “We’re excited about how our Tier 4 Final big trucks combine durability with fuel-saving technology to create some of the highest-performing, EPA-compliant trucks on the market.”
Hyster® 40,000 – 70,000 lbs. trucks and empty container handlers now feature a Tier 4 Final Cummins QSB 6.7L engine with a ZF WG 211 5-speed powershift transmission. The engine offers peak power of 230hp for the H400-450HD/S and empty container handler models; and 270hp for the H550-700HD/S models. Hyster’s 80,000 – 105,000 lbs. trucks and ReachStackers including the H1050-1150HD-CH laden container handlers, now come standard with a Tier 4 Final Cummins QSL 9L engine with peak power of 363hp with a Dana Spicer Off-Highway TE 32 powershift transmission.
These trucks offer excellent fuel consumption, maximum productivity, low emissions and a long service life – resulting in lower total cost of ownership. The integrated drivetrain with emission reduction package includes cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system for nitrogen oxide (NOX) reduction, a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) for particulate matter removal and a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) delivery system. This package results in approximately 96 percent less particles (soot) and 94 percent less NOx compared to Tier 3 equivalents built before 2005. It requires no diesel particulate filter (DPF), no extra operator intervention and no ash cleaning service.
In addition to the Tier 4 Final Cummins engine technology, Hyster® big truck performance optimization developments such as ECO-eLo mode, cooling on demand, RPM management and alternate engine idle speed, help further reduce total fuel consumption.
