The Thwaites 3 Tonne Power Swivel, all electric dumper is manufactured
with contractors and hirers in mind – ensuring operator safety, reducing
risk on site and producing zero emissions. Four maintenance free, long-
life, lithium-ion (dry-cell) batteries, operating at 48V, are fitted. The battery
pack is rated at 22kWh, providing the power to drive the machine. Two
highly efficient electric motors (one for traction, one for the hydraulic
services) give the operator the control and manoeuvrability expected
from a Thwaites dumper.
The additional Thwaites Electric machines available are:
› 3 Tonne Front Tip
› 2 Tonne Hi Swivel
Critically, the battery pack will complete a hard 8-hour working day
from a single charge. The standard on-board 3.0 kW battery charger
can charge the pack in 8hrs (three-phase). Fast charger option 20-80%
charge in 50 minutes.
Each dumper is supplied as standard with a Spring Activated Hydraulic
Release (SAHR) Handbrake, ROPS frame, towing bracket, LED
beacons, full LED road lights including daylight running lights and a
reverse alarm.
Easy to service and maintain with market leading residuals.
