Atlas Copco 20-tonne class MB 1500 Hydraulic Breaker weighs only 1,500 kg and delivers an impact power approximately 30 per cent more when compared to many other manufacturers having a dead weight of nearly 2,000 kg.

Atlas Copco has introduced the hydraulic breaker 50 years ago which transformed the construction and mining industries. With the customer?s productivity and total cost of ownership as its priority, Atlas Copco has continued to refine this winning concept.

In India, breakers suitable for 20 tonne excavator class dominate the market. The Atlas Copco MB1500 hydraulic breaker is the most popular breaker in this specific segment.

The entire MB line offers numerous possibilities to find the perfect match for the excavator. These breakers are incorporated with KRUPP percussion technology, which makes the breakers with highest power to weight ratio. For e.g., the 20 tonne class breaker MB1500 weighs only 1,500 kg (includes weight of adaptor plate and chisel) and delivers an impact power approximately 30 per cent more when compared to many other manufacturers having a dead weight of nearly 2,000 kg.

Due to lower weight and higher efficiency, a lower hydraulic input power is required from the carrier which results in lower fuel consumption. In addition to this, we offer low noise and vibration which in turn are better for the environment and increase the life of the carrier. In short, Atlas Copco breakers offer efficiency and performance the customer can rely on!

Major Features:

• Energy Recovery automatically utilises the piston recoil energy to increase the performance without additional hydraulic input and to lower vibrations
• Automatic piston stroke length switching system
• AutoControl adjusts the output balance during operation thus optimising the performance
• Integrated StartSelect valve enables the operator to adjust the hydraulic breaker start-up behavior according to the operating condition in a few simple steps
• In the AutoStart mode the hydraulic breaker starts with minimum load applied to working tool thus simplifying handling
• In the AutoStop mode the hydraulic breakers runs only when load is applied to working tool thus preventing blank firing
• Active non-return valve ventilating the percussion chamber during the upwards movement of the piston minimising penetration of abrasive dust and expelling dust contaminated grease from the tool guiding section
• Air inlet to connect compressed air supply for underwater and tunnelling work
• Atlas Copco designed self-priming lubrication pump ContiLube? II with adjustable grease volume, directly mounted on the hydraulic breaker, for uninterrupted operation and optimised lubrication
• Hybrid technology with an integrated nitrogen piston accumulator for constantly high impact energy, safe start-up and smooth operation
• Two oval-shaped tool retainer bars, with a simple but reliable locking system, for quick tool exchange and increased durability
• Fully enclosed breaker box design to prevent wear on the percussion mechanism, as well as HARDOX? reinforcements and rock claws on the bottom section of the breaker box to prevent premature wear
• VibroSilenced Plus system isolating percussion mechanism and breaker box by polyurethane damping and guiding elements and sealing of all breaker openings to reduce noise and vibration levels
• Vibration damping tie rods with polyurethane collar and HeliCoil locking system for high durability
