How This Calculator Works
This tool estimates fuel or energy consumption, cost, and CO₂ emissions for various hydraulic breaker models based on operating hours and fuel type.
Fuel Calculation Formula:
Fuel/Energy Used = Operating Hours × Consumption Rate (liters or kWh per hour)
CO₂ Emissions = Fuel/Energy Used × Emission Factor
Emission Factors:
- Diesel: 2.68 kg CO₂/liter
- Electric: 0 kg CO₂/kWh (assuming renewable source)
About Hydraulic Breakers
Hydraulic breakers are powerful percussion hammers mounted on excavators, backhoes, or skid steers. They are used to break concrete, rock, and asphalt in construction, mining, and demolition projects.
- Small Hydraulic Breaker 50 HP: Used for light demolition and road repair work.
- Medium Hydraulic Breaker 100 HP: Ideal for mid-sized construction and mining projects.
- Large Hydraulic Breaker 200 HP: Designed for heavy-duty breaking of rock and reinforced concrete.
- Electric Hydraulic Breaker: Eco-friendly alternative suitable for urban construction sites.
Fuel-Saving Tips:
- Use the correct breaker size for the material hardness.
- Avoid unnecessary idling to save fuel.
- Maintain hydraulic systems regularly for efficiency.
- Consider electric-powered breakers for low-emission projects.
