Being debuted at Intermat 2024, the 14W-EREV electric concept vehicle from DEVELON, formerly Doosan Construction Equipment, is the most advanced, state-of-the-art machine of its kind. This electric wheeled excavator is designed with a regenerating drive system (eDrive), advanced swing system (eSwing) and eWorking systems to ensure maximum efficiency with zero emissions.
The 14W-EREV is intended to excel in urban environments, offering a compact and very versatile design. The 14W-EREV combines this with enhanced visibility, increased stability and mobility to ensure increase safety on urban sites and in challenging conditions.
Built with a streamlined design, the 14W-EREV maximises peripheral vision over long distances for optimum safety and security. Offering the driver a full 360° of line of sight around the machine, the 14W-EREV can easily detect obstacles from any angle and in any urban environment. Equipped with an Around View Monitor (AVM), the 14W-EREV provides a full-screen projection of the machine’s journey and surroundings.
The 14W-EREV offers an independent electric pump motor, which helps to maximize hydraulic flow for attachments and provides a high flow for applications such as tiltrotators and articulated front pieces. In addition, the 14W-EREV offers a boom swing capability ideal for use in either tight spaces or buildings due to the working envelope being below 4 m.
Improved battery charging technology allows the machine to be quickly charged up to 80% in 1.5 hours for the main battery. The battery pack has a capacity of 120 kWh, which allows 3 hours of driving and is therefore the ideal solution for zero emission areas.
Develon offers, as an option, the choice between a 55 kW diesel engine, for a hybrid solution, or a second additional 120 kW battery pack, which will add 3 hours of additional autonomy. The optional diesel engine helps users to deal with infrastructure issues on site, where there is no possibility of recharging.
