The BT 60 e BOMAG tamper is battery-powered.
The BT 60 e delivers the same compaction power as the conventional tamper. It features 696 vpm compaction frequency, a jumping height of 2.8 inches, and impact force of 3,372 lb.-ft. Working width is 9.1 inches, and it compacts at speeds reaching 65.6 fpm.
It uses a brushless, asynchronous 3.1-horsepower (2.3 kW) electric motor that requires no maintenance. Eliminating the need for oil and filter changes, service costs for the battery-electric tamper are nearly cut in half compared to the fuel model.
The tamper’s casing fully protects the motor from shocks, dirt, and damage.
Two battery sizes are available: 1,000 Wh or 1,400 Wh. Powerpacks are quickly swapped out at the release of a lever without the need for a tool. Standard and fast chargers are available for the batteries, and the quick-charge capabilities enable a discharged battery to be ready for use in less than 2 hours.
