240 AC Drive System
240 AC Drive System With IGBT Controls Delivers Peak Productivity
Using advanced AC propulsion technology, the world leader in drive systems for off-highway vehicles has created a new standard for the 240 ton haul truck class. The GE240AC™ drive system, with high-power, air-cooled IGBT controls, outperforms similar-sized DC and mechanical systems, delivering higher sustained speed on grade and continuous retarding to near zero speed.
