BX / BXR Series Hydraulic Breakers0 pages

SharedFeatures&Benefits
High strength alloy plate steel construction with
abrasion resistant plating; allows continuous
duty in harsh environments
Noise dampening material through the breaker;
eliminates metal-to-metal contact
Top and bottom isolators; absorbs recoil energy
Cryogenically enhanced, heat treated alloy pistons
and precise tolerances; provides high breaker
efficiencies
Short length, large diameter tie rods with integral
vibration dampeners; provides an exceptionally
strong, rebuildable design

Remote air breather positioned above the main
control valve (BX10-BXR160); provides easy access
and clean air intake (+ connection for underwater
operation)
Remote grease line connection and hydraulic porting
on power cells (BX10-BXR160); easy accessibility for
use with carrier or breaker mounted greasing systems

Features&Benefits

Narrow nose design; allows improved visibility and
minimal over-breaking in trenching applications

RecoilEnergyCaptureSystem
The effective oil regeneration system on the BXR Series captures
hydraulic oil used in the downward stroke of the piston and uses
this oil to assist in lifting the piston for the next blow. This design
boosts blow speed without the need for additional flow, resulting
in higher production rates.

Oversized, full length, oval retainer pins
(BX10-BXR160); excellent resistance to blank fires
and expansive load transfer area to front head
Large tool diameters; longer life and superior
transmission of impact energy

Long/ShortStrokeSelection
Operator controlled long or short stroke selection on the
BXR Series instantly shifts between high blow energy
(low speed, long stroke) to low blow energy
(high speed, short stroke) with the flip of a switch.
This maximizes production rates in varying material conditions.

BX Series
Breaker mounted manual high/low stroke selector (BX8-BX40); improves
production capability

ManualSpeedSelection
The BX8 to BX40 breakers are equipped with a manual high or
low speed select located on the breaker. Switching to high speed
allows for improved production rates in softer material such as
concrete.

Long stroke piston design; provides high levels of constant blow energy
Pressure balanced piston; optimizes bpm’s and blow energy

Anti-BlankFire
An anti-blank fire on/off selector on the BX8-BX40, and an
interlock on the BXR Series prevents the blank fire of the tool,
thereby reducing shock loading to the retaining pins and
front head.

Anti-blank fire on/off selector (BX8-BX40); alternate
modes when operating in varying rock conditions
Optimal sound dampening (BX6-BX40); further
lowers noise levels, pertinent in high density
population areas

UnderwaterOperationPort
A remote air port at the top of BX10 and larger breakers
allows for underwater operation with the addition of a
compressed air supply.

BXR Series
Two speed hydraulic pilot power control; controls blow energy in varying
material conditions
Oil regeneration system; increases bpm’s without decreasing energy
in harder material applications
High volume nitrogen charged accumulator; provides constant
blow energy and recoil absorption
Extra-long stroke pressure balanced piston in
conjunction with oil regeneration system;
optimizes impact energy and bpm’s
Button nose piston design; maximizes energy
transfer to the tool
Anti-blank fire interlock; protects front
head and retainer pins

RemoteGreasing
A remote located greasing port on the BX10 and larger is
situated near the top of the breaker close to the main
hydraulic circuit providing a convenient interface to carriermounted remote greasing systems, the use of which
contributes to breaker longevity.

ExceptionalSilenceandStructuralIntegrity
Boxed section housings provide excellent strength, while
remaining lightweight. The suspended boxed housing
design reduces vibration to the carrier without
metal-to-metal contact.

NarrowFrontHead
The narrow box-housing design is well suited to tight
trenching conditions. The narrow profile allows optimum
visibility and access when working in tight quarters.
