Liebherr Adds Electric R 9300 G8-E Excavator
Liebherr has added an electric version of the 250-tonne-class R 9300 excavator to its lineup. The R 9300 G8-E offers mining operations an alternative to the diesel-powered model, with backhoe and face shovel configurations available.
The electric excavator shares the R 9300 G8 platform and matches the diesel model’s hydraulic power and bucket capacity at 1.8 t/m³. Its 850-kW drivetrain can be configured for either 6 kV or 6.6 kV and meets IEC standards.
Emissions and Maintenance
The R 9300 G8-E produces no direct exhaust emissions during operation. This does not account for emissions from generating the electricity used to power the machine.
Compared with the diesel version, fewer drivetrain components may help reduce maintenance requirements for the R 9300 G8-E. Service needs and costs will depend on operating conditions and how the machine is used. The electric model also produces less vibration in the cab than the diesel model.
Machine Technology
An autonomous cable reel is available as an option, helping manage the cable while supporting the excavator's movement on site. The R 9300 G8-E is compatible with Liebherr’s IoMine technology, including Assistance Systems, Bucket Filling Assistant, Skyview and Data View. Liebherr Power Efficiency – Hydraulic Control is standard and adjusts hydraulic power based on the machine’s load profile.
