Engcon S60 Quick Coupler
Sweden-based Engcon says its S60 coupler for 12-to-19-ton excavators makes it easier for operators to disconnect tilt rotators or other hydraulic tools without leaving the cab. Its features include:
- electronic sensors that detect when both pins have contact during the connection process
- strong hydraulic springs that keep the coupler locked even if electronics and hydraulics fail
- a check valve that prevents the hydraulic cylinder from opening in case of a hose rupture or drop in hydraulic pressure
- front and rear locks that minimize the risk of accidents caused by swinging tools and attachments
