Dump truck KamAZ-65115: technical characteristics, dimensions, instruction manual

KamAZ 65115 belongs to one of the oldest series of this plant, production of which began back in 1998. This truck shows good performance in terms of technical characteristics, cross-country ability and load capacity.

The car is the brainchild of the Kama Automobile Plant, which in itself can count on excellent performance quality. In addition, this model has undergone a major modernization, allowing it to stand on par with the most modern trucks of its type. Here is information about all new Kamaz models.

Description

After restyling, KamAZ became more modern, if assessed by external data. The design of the headlights has changed - instead of the boring round ones, you can now see stylish rectangular headlights.

Changes also affected other elements of the cabin. In particular, the bumper was replaced with a more massive one, which is an additional means of safety, because in case of collisions with any obstacles, it plays the role of a buffer that softens this impact.

The side mirrors have also been modified, allowing the driver's viewing angle to be significantly increased. Thanks to the new design, dead zones have been virtually eliminated.

The developers did not stop there, making a number of attempts to make changes to the internal structure of the cabin. The seats were equipped with air suspension and an adjustment system that allows you to set the position and height that is needed in each specific case.

This made it possible to reduce driver fatigue while driving, because a comfortable body position is the main condition for comfort when driving on the road surface. In addition, the steering column is also adjustable, allowing you to set the desired height, which, coupled with the adjustable seat, allows you to make fairly long journeys without the threat of severe fatigue.

These requirements for increased comfort are determined primarily by labor standards and practical considerations. As for the internal “filling”, the standard KamAZ 65115 uses two types of engines:

Cummins engine – has 282 hp. The KamAZ 65115 engine capacity is 6.7 liters and the torque is about 950 Nm.

Motor 740.62-280 – has 280 hp. In addition, there are eight cylinders and the volume is 11.76 liters. The same engine is installed on the KamAZ-65117 model.

This truck has a 6x4 wheel arrangement, which allows you to cross any terrain, even on poor quality surfaces.

Overall dimensions of KamAZ 53215

The dimensions of the equipment in question are not that large, despite its impressive carrying capacity:

• The height of the cabin , including the exhaust pipe located on it, is 3,100 mm;
• body length from the front bumper to the edge of the platform – 8,636 mm;
• platform height – 3,995 mm;
• the distance between the front and middle axles is 3,690 mm;
• the distance between the middle axle and the rear is 1,320 mm.

Attention! The overall dimensions of the truck body are 6,100×2,320 mm. That is why this model is used in construction - such an impressive volume allows you to transport a large amount of building materials at a time.

Video review of the KamAZ 65115 dump truck.

Video

To date, 16 configurations of KamAZ-53215 are known. Their main differences are performance, fuel tank parameters, the availability of various options, as well as wheel parameters.

KamAZ-53215 has a time-tested design, confirmed by many years of testing. Specialists from the Kama Automobile Plant tested the car in different climatic conditions, including regions of Siberia. In addition, most owners also rate the truck positively. In terms of cost, the model can only be compared with Chinese analogues, which are not in high demand on the Russian market due to low reliability.

Brake system

The large dimensions of the braking system are due to the significant inertia of the vehicle, which has a large mass. It consists of the following components:

• air driven drive;
• brake drums having a diameter of 400 mm;
• brake linings, their maximum width is 140 mm.

Key indicators - Transmission design

In addition, according to reviews from real owners, 15-ton dump trucks from the Kama Automobile Plant are significantly easier to operate, repair and maintain. and to this day, KamAZ is constantly improving its engines, improving their technical and economic indicators, service life, fuel efficiency, oil consumption for waste, noise level, emissions of harmful substances from exhaust gases, maximum torque.

Design Features

The first development and production of a large tractor was made more than 17 years ago. Over such a long period, the model was constantly refined and received additional capabilities. A special feature of Kamaz 53215 is its reinforced chassis, which allows it to drive off-road without hindrance. In addition, this version has a sleeping place for the driver - the previous ones were not equipped with a place to rest and sleep, which caused great inconvenience on long trips.

The body of the semi-trailer is formed by a metal platform with wooden flooring and opening sides. On top of the engine is an all-metal front-type three-seat cabin. Additionally, due to the optimal design, it is possible to extend the crane boom up to 25 m with a load, which allows work even in cramped conditions.

It is important to remember that for the initial period of operation of the vehicle, a rolling mileage (1000 km) has been established, during which it is necessary to observe a gentle regime, namely, not to exceed the driving speed above 70 km/h and not to load the vehicle more than 75% of the rated load capacity.

Summing up

A decent volume of the body, load capacity, as well as the unique performance qualities of the vehicle make it one of the most popular models on the world market of modern dump trucks. The list of positive characteristics can be supplemented by the reasonable cost of the equipment.

The 65115 dump truck is equipped with large diameter wheels and a rigid vehicle suspension. Thanks to this, the model has become one of the best in terms of cross-country capability. For the modern construction and industrial sectors, this is the best option.

Among the main positive characteristics of the chassis are low fuel consumption, as well as an axle load that meets the requirements and standards.

When purchasing equipment, you can choose a chassis from two main types - a V-shaped eight or a Cummins inline six. Both types are equipped with leaf spring suspension, which balances at the rear and depends on two leaf springs made in semi-elliptical shapes. This makes it possible to operate the car in a wide variety of road conditions. The Kamaz chassis is a reliable base in all respects, which is used in a wide range of trucks, all of which ideally correlates with a positive fuel consumption rate.

Electrical equipment

Wiring comes in a variety of configurations to suit different locations in the system:

• For heating the salt room in the cold season.
• To supervise the operation of the washer and glass cleaner.
• To organize lighting both inside the structure and from its outside.
• For instrumentation.
• To be able to quickly start the power unit.

A generator with a high power of 800 W is used . There are varieties in which this system has a power of 2 kW, which is considered almost a record figure for machines of this size. KamAZ-53215 has the following distinctive features:

• The standard wiring voltage is 28 V.
• The design contains a rectifier block.
• The system is equipped with a voltage regulator.
• The stator windings are a schematic “star”.
