Hydrostatic Regenerative Braking System HRB
Series Hydraulic Hybrid from Rexroth:
- For vehicles with a hydrostatic transmission
- Up to 25% improvement in fuel economy
- Reduced emissions
- Reduced brake maintenance
- Full recovery of the braking energy
HRB realizes its full potential in:
- Heavy vehicles with
- Short, succeeding start-stop cycles and
- Low rolling resistance
Although the trucks aren't hydrostatically driven, this would make an ideal hybrid system for a residentional garbage collection truck. Add this system and a hydraulic motor/pump to the transmission's output shaft and it would save a lot of fuel.
