The Chicago Pneumatic RX Hydraulic Breaker line offers 13 models which are designed to match various application needs found in demolition, primary/secondary breaking, ditching, recycling, road construction and landscaping.
The breakers fit carrier classes ranging from 200 ft./lb. to the 10,000 ft./lb. class. RX hydraulic breakers feature a hybrid gas/oil technology and are engineered with fewer components and working parts to maintain.
The CP power boost feature on the RX models is designed to achieve higher breaking performance in tougher applications without requiring additional hydraulic input. While the impact energy remains constant, the breaker increases blow frequency, which is said to result in enhanced percussive performance. The power stop function found on models RX14 and up reduces blank firing, and is designed to protect the breaker and carrier while increasing the working life of the components.
The larger models in the Chicago Pneumatic RX line, RX25 through RX53, feature a power control valve, which enables the operator to adjust the breaker’s performance according to the application. The RX25-RX53 models also feature a fastening system that uses head bolts and insert threads to distribute torque equally.
The RX line has been designed to provide increased noise and vibration damping. The hydraulic breakers also feature a new style of internal control valve, which has proved to be more efficient than other designs.
