The BP 2900 provides 399 tons of maximum cutting force and 125 tons of crushing force at the jaw tip, according to the manufacturer. With a service weight of 6,460 pounds, the bulk pulverizer operates at a maximum pressure of 5,075 psi, accepts a maximum hydraulic flow of 92 gallons per minute and is suitable for carriers in the 25 to 35 metric ton weight class.
The attachment features an angular design with a 37.4-inch jaw opening and an 18.9-inch working width, allowing the unit to handle large heaps of concrete debris. It is constructed of rugged components created through Finite Element Method (FEM) design, which adds durability to applying additional support components only where necessary. FEM ensures the attachment has the strength to withstand the extreme loads of various demolition applications while keeping the unit lightweight, according to the manufacturer.
The unit hydraulically rotates 360 degrees, allowing for more efficient operation and handling, and a built-in rotation protection system reduces wear and tear on the carrier. Additionally, the hydraulic cylinders are guarded for full protection from outside debris.
Replaceable teeth and tooth plates on the jaws are advantageous for performing maintenance in the field, and the unit’s replaceable blades effectively cut rebar as the tool penetrates through concrete. The blades are also reversible.
