Suspension Control System Accumulators

Blocking valve

Typical system layout Blocking valve

Direction valves

Suspension cylinder assemblies

Suspension System Control • Integrated suspension levelling and axle blocking control valves are being used on some current, and new models

Suspension Control System • On some current, and new models • Axle blocking is controlled by pneumatically operated valves • Suspension levelling is controlled by integrated solenoid valves

Large Suspension Struts • Large struts also have integrated proximity switches for suspension control

Suspension Proximity Switches Proximity switches • They look identical, but one is normally open and the other normally closed • Upper switch = N/O • Lower switch = N/C

Suspension Proximity Switches • All small and some early large struts have external proximity switches between the steering linkage within a vertical tube

Steering Geometry • Steering levers. Known by other terms - Wishbone or compulsion levers. They transfer steering control to the wheels

Steering Geometry • Steering levers are now fitted with “Swiss cheese” bushings in place of hard steel bushings

Steering Geometry Typical standard drive steer configuration

Steering Geometry The steering idler allows the rear axle to steer on highway or the rear two axles to steer independently of the front axles View of all wheel steer & all wheel drive option

Steering idler

Steering Geometry • Rear steering idler assembly • Used from KMK 4070 (4072 technical) - GMK 5160 • It allows highway rear wheel steering when locked and independent rear wheel steering when unlocked

Steering Geometry • Rear steering idler assembly • Proximity switch for locking control • Mechanical switches for transmission and hydraulic control

Power Train • Kessler transfer case • They may look identical, but the ratio may differ! Transfer case

Power Train • A transfer case manufactured by MAN was used on all GMT models with more than three axles • All KMK & GMK models use a separate Kessler transfer case on models with more than three axles

Power Train Kessler transfer case

Drive from transmission

Drive to front axles Drive to rear axles

Power Train • Kessler transfer case • It divides the drive power to the axles • It has two speeds • It also drives the emergency steering pump

Power Train • All conventional drive axles are manufactured by Kessler • Early Megatrak -KMK 3040 - KMK 4060 used differentials & wheel heads manufactured by ZF • KMK 4070 and current models all use differentials & wheel heads from Kessler

Power Train Conventional axle with disk or drum brakes

Megatrak axle, only with drum brakes

Power Train • Megatrak, Kessler differential assembly • With internal air actuated differential cross locks

Power Train • Megatrack, Kessler differential with inter-axle differential

Power Train • Double and single joint cardan (half shafts) are used depending on application • The assembly part number can be found here

Power Train Fixed ring gear

Principle of reduction hub 3 & 4 planet gear versions are used

Power Train • View of reduction hub & wheel drive • This casing is driven by internal sun & planet gears

Power Train • It is a general rule that when replacing a broken wheel stud also replace the wheel stud on either side of the broken one and fit new wheel nuts

POWER TRAIN • Wheel studs vary in length depending on application • Drive axles = 96 mm = 3.77 inches • Non drive axles = 88 mm = 3.46 inches • Double wheel drive axles = 110 mm = 4.33 inches

Power Train • Brake design can be wedge or S cam - the latter is not used on KMK or GMK models Wedge

S cam

Power Train • Brake drums and brake linings also vary in width depending on axle location • The term “simplex or duplex” is used to indicate single or double air actuators on wedge brake applications • Disk brakes were only used on preMegatrak AT models up to 70 tonnes

Pneumatic Systems • View of Wabco air dryer. The desicant cartridge should be changed at least every two years

Pneumatic Systems • Pneumatic solenoids are often assembled in a sandwich block

Hydraulic Reservoir • The reservoir is open to atmosphere via a breather element • The return line hydraulic filter is integrated into the reservoir • Suction filters are not used

Hydraulic Reservoir • Typical view of return line filters

Hydraulic Systems • All models 50 tonnes & below use the carrier engine to drive the hydraulic pumps • GMT 60/70 & some KMK 70 tonne models (preMegatrak) used a superstructure engine • All Megatrak & current GMK models up to 70 tonnes use the carrier engine • All larger models use a superstructure engine

Hydraulic Systems • All models 50 tonnes & below use a transmission power take off for the pump drive • KMK 60/70 (Megatrak) and current GMK 70 tonne models use a remote mounted pump drive box between the engine & transmission for pump drive

Hydraulic Systems • GMT & KMK models up to 35 tonnes used gear pumps for all functions • Larger models used axial piston pumps for primary crane functions • All current GMK models use axial piston pumps for primary crane functions

Hydraulic Pumps • There are two basic types of piston pumps used for crane functions • 1. Swash plate, this can have through drive and be in combination (piggy back). • 2. Bent axis, this can not have through drive and is only a single unit or double side by side unit in a common housing

Hydraulic Pumps • View of A10VO swash plate piston pump

Hydraulic Pumps • View of A7VO bent axis piston pump

Hydraulic Pumps • Typical view of A8VO bent axis piston pump • This has two bent axis pumps in one housing

Hydraulic Pumps • Installed view of A8VO bent axis piston pump • Mounted directly to engine • Auxiliary drive for gear pumps

Hydraulic Pumps • The hydraulic pumps are controlled by pilot pressure from the hydraulic control joysticks in the operators cab • Current GMK models from 5160 - 6200 use electric pump control via electric joy stick controls and amplifier boards

Hydraulic Pumps • • • • • • •

Pump identification codes e.g. A8VO107LR3CH A = Axial. 8 = Series. V = Variable O = Open circuit. 107 = displacement LR = Constant horsepower. 3 = 3rd input C = Cross sensing H = Pilot pressure dependent

Hydraulic Pumps • Pump identification codes e.g. • A8VO107EP • The last two letters (EP) indicate that this pump is (E) electric (P) proportional and would only be used on a GMK 5160

Hydraulic Pump Control • • • •

There are two amplifier types: PVR for open circuits (smallest boards) RVR for closed loop control (swing) The amplifiers convert the joystick signal voltage into a milliamp output to control the hydraulic pump output

Hydraulic Pump Control • The GLR board is used to regulate the hydraulic pumps output according to the available engine power • Replacement PVR, RVR & GLR boards must all be calibrated on the crane - contact Service Department

Control Block

• The control block is used to control the direction of the oil flow to the actuator • The block is of modular design • spool switching control is by integrated electric solenoids • Spool switching control by pilot pressure was used on pre-Megatrak models - except the KMK 5100 AT

EKS LMI/SLI/RCI Indicators • There are four types of system in current use • 1. EKS 83 uses a Kruger transducer box & single boom recoil drum • 2. EKS 83 new generation uses Dynisco transducers & has multiple boom recoil drums • 3. EKS 3 with softpad interactive faceplate - This system also uses Dynisco transducers & multiple recoil drums • 4. EKS 4 with softpad interactive faceplate - This system is being used ECOS technology.

EKS 83 • EKS 83 uses digital switches on the faceplate • This is known as the central unit

EKS 83 • There are several central unit software versions that may be fitted to early cranes • Only one type (D) is now available as a replacement • Please seek Service Department advice for correct configuration

EKS 83 • View of central unit with cover removed showing location of main fuse = 3.15 amps • NOTE: a larger fuse will destroy the unit

EKS 83 • View of central unit with cover removed showing location of Data Bus fuse = 1.25 amps • NOTE: a larger fuse will destroy the unit

EKS 83 • View inside Kruger transducer box, it is mounted on the lift cylinder • Two transducers are left & right behind compensation board
