EQUIPMENT SHOWCASE
Hatz took a downsizing approach to
deliver an extremely compact engine in
the H50 series. The three cylinder, 1.5 litre
3H50TIC and its 3H50TI variant was put
through tests and trials after its global
debut at Bauma and now joins the four
cylinder, 2.0 litre 4H50 in the Australian
market.
Sami Almogawish, Managing Director
of Hatz Diesel Australia, said: “The H50
series represents a new generation of
water-cooled diesel engines. They are the
world’s smallest in their power range, and
are up to 90kg lighter than the nearest
competitor.
"This leads to a very low power-to-weight
ratio and unsurpassed fuel efficiency. The
4H50 is the most efficient engine in the
37-56/62kW class, with fuel consumption
210g/kWh. Fuel consumption is much
lower than any other engine on the
market,” Sami said.
Among the premium components is
H50 diesel engines small in size, big on power
The Hatz Diesel H50 water-cooled engine series expanded in April with the debut of a
three cylinder version at Bauma, in Munich, Germany.
the off-highway Bosch Common Rail
Technology with 1,800 bar injection
pressure. The engine features Bosch parts
– such as a high-pressure pump, injection
controller and off-highway injectors –
combining in a way that leads to minimal
friction, smooth running, quiet operation,
and low-exhaust emissions.
The engines use a diesel oxidation
catalyst (DOC) and even without a diesel
particulate filter (DPF), satisfies strict EPA
Tier 4 standards. Not requiring a DPF has
the added benefit of doing away with
expensive maintenance and downtime.
Sami said the high degree of productivity
is improved thanks to Hatz’s unique
‘conservative-innovative’ philosophy.
“The design is simple, with very few
moving parts and internal friction kept to
a minimum. For example, each of the four
cylinders on the 4H50 engine has only
two valves, resulting in high mechanical
robustness and simplicity.
“This in conjunction with roller tappets
and a lower camshaft, reduces installation
space and gives customers the benefit of
a compact, but high-performing engine.”
Hatz offers in-house customisation to
fit for purpose and pre-delivers before
sale, including running the engine so it is
ready to install and turn-key.
