High torque power take-off
PTO-HT16 and PTO-HT20 are sandwich-mounted high torque FEATURES AND BENEFITS
power take-off options available for Volvo FM/FMX.
• A
ssembly in Volvo factories with high quality and short lead-
The high torque power take-off is fitted between the engine and the time
gearbox. It has a heat exchanger connected to the engine cooling • Specially suited to Volvo engines for a high availability
system. Drive is taken from the engine crankshaft. • Whole Vehicle Type Approved
The high torque power take-off is suitable for applications in
which the power take-off must be clutch independent. It can SPECIFICATION
operate when the vehicle is moving (up to 10 km/h) as well as
when it is stationary. Designations..........................................................PTO-HT16 and PTO-HT20
For applications such as fire trucks, it is possible to remove the Location............................................................... Between engine and gearbox
Position...................................................................................................12 o’clock
speed restriction. For more information, see VBI.
Output flange...............................................................According to ISO 8667
The high torque power take-off is suitable for applications such as: Type.......................................................... Clutch Independent Power Take-Off
• Concrete pumps Weight (complete installation incl. 4.7 l oil).........................................224 kg
• Sludge/suction vehicles Max torque, PTO-HT16, ratio 1:1.54...............................................1600 Nm
• Sweepers Max torque, PTO-HT20, ratio 1:1.21................................................2000 Nm
Minimum engine speed under load.....................................................800 rpm
• Fire trucks/Skylifts
Rotation (viewed from rear of truck)..........................................Anti-clockwise
These PTOs are not available with engines delivering enough torque at the flywheel
to utilize its maximum output torque. E.g. for D13K540 engine with PTO-HT20 the
maximum torque for the PTO equipment is approximately 1700 Nm at 1400 rpm
and for PTO-HT16 the maximum torque for the PTO equipment is approximately
1340 Nm at 1400 rpm.
See Volvo Bodybuilder Instructions (VBI) for more information about torque limits
and supplementary drawings.
