L 524 - L 542 Wheel Loaders

ReliabilityAll the materials used have passed long-time tests to ensure that they complywith Liebherr’s high quality standards in even the toughest conditions. A sophisticatedconcept and proven quality mean that Liebherr wheel loaders set thestandard when it comes to reliability.Reliable Liebherr drivelineFewer componentsControlled coolingThe intelligent answerLiebherr’s driveline includes a self-locking hydraulicbrake, with the result that the additional wetbrake discs are effectively wear-free. A reversinggear unit is not required, thereby reducing thenumber of components susceptible to wear.The cooling fan is not driven directly from theLiebherr diesel engine, and produces only the coolingair output that is needed at any given moment.Heat sensors control its operating speed, and ifoverheating should occur, the wheel loader shiftsdown automatically to the lowest travel speedrange.Since less power is then consumed, the Liebherrdiesel engine is better protected against overheating.At the same time, the fan speed is increasedto the maximum value, for the best possible protectionof all components.Components to the manufacturer’squality standardsEverything froma single sourceImportant components such as the engine,hydraulic rams and electronics are manufacturedby Liebherr itself – which means coordinatedquality from the manufacturer down to the smallestdetail to ensure the highest possible performanceand reliability.Cooling system• The radiator is installed on the rear sectionof the vehicle, between the dieselengine and the cabin. Cooling air isdrawn in directly behind the cabin andblown out upwards at the rear. The fanspeed is varied automatically by heatsensors that determine the amount ofcooling needed.• A reversible fan drive to expel dustfrom the radiator can be specified as anoptional extra.Liebherr’s own components• Liebherr has many years of experience inthe design, development and construction ofdiesel engines, hydraulic rams and electroniccomponents. They are all matched togetherdown to the smallest detail for use on itswheel loaders.L 524 2plus1 - L 542 2plus19
