2.3 Terms and basis of calculation
The following terms and basis of calculation serve as a quick guide
to help you understand the technical data provided:
Seq. no.
Term
Units
EXPLANATION
1
Dimensions
mm
n
All dimensions given in mm
2
Axle load
kg
n
Specification of the static weight in (kg) affecting each axle
3
Drive system
-
n
Mechanically from the diesel/petrol engine via V-belt, toothed
belt or chain, gears, or cardan shaft
n
Hydrostatically from the diesel/petrol engine via hydraulic
pump and hydraulic motor(s)
4
Amplitude
mm
n
Half the excursion in millimetres (mm) covered by the com-
paction body (plate or drum) per revolution of the exciter shaft
5
Working speed
m/min
n
Path covered by the machine in metres (m) in a minute (min)
6
Operating
weight CECE
kg
n
Static weight of the machine, including
- fuels and lubricants - 50% fuel tank content x 0.84 specific
weight
- 50% water tank content
- 75 kg for the driver (only in the case of sit-on machines)
7
Rated speed
min
-1
n
Number of revolutions per minute of the diesel/petrol engine
8
Basic weight
kg
n
Static weight of the machine without fuels and lubricants
9
Travel speed
km/h
n
Path covered by the machine in kilometres (km) in an hour (h)
10
Frequency
Hz min
-1
n
Number of revolutions made by the exciter shaft per second
(Hz) ore minute (min
-1
)
For example: 50 Hz = 50
rev.
/sec = 50 x 60 = 3000
rev.
/min (•/
min)
11
Fuel consump-
tion
l/h
n
Average engine fuel consumption at 70% capacity utilisation
12
Rated power
SAE J 1349/ISO
3046
kW
n
Effective output at the engine flywheel in kilowatts (kW) at the
set nominal speed
13
Track radius
mm
n
Radius in mm which the machine achieves at full steering
angle; measured from the theoretical circle midpoint to the
inner edge of the drums/wheel
14
Static surface
load
kg/m
2
n
Relates to the machine operating weight in kg divided by the
base plate contact area
15
Static linear
load
kg/cm or
kg/m
n
Axle load in kg divided by the working width of the drums in
cm or m
16
Centrifugal
force
kN
n
Force generated by the exciter shaft in kilonewton (kN) which
makes the compaction body (drum or plate) oscillate. It
depends on the vibrating mass of the compaction body and
the frequency.
Attention:
Specification of a greater centrifugal force is no
guarantee of high compaction power.
