11/9/2009 2:06:00 PM
The 2010 generation of Cobra™ petrol drill and breakers by Atlas Copco meet the stricter requirements of exhaust emission set by the US based Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), known as having one of the strictest emission control programs worldwide.
Phase 2 of the Exhaust emission standards for small non-road engines of the EPA and it´s EU equivalent, EG 97/68/EG with amendment 2002/88/EG constitute a reduction of hydrocarbon (HC) and NOx emissions and are probably the most demanding in the history of environmental regularities. Compared to previous generation of Cobra™ machines, the emission of hydrocarbons has been reduced by approximately 50 percent.
Featuring improved carburettor and filter systems and redesigned and fine tuned noise reduction system, including a catalytic element, the new generation of Cobra™ petrol drill and breakers meets the requirement for exhaust emissions demanded by the stricter emission limits.
The new generation of Cobra™ petrol breakers is easy to start. All models feature an electronic ignition, choke and a re-designed tank cap. Cobra™ Pro and TT additionally contain a decompression valve. An optional guide roller is available for Cobra™ Combi to make it easy to pull downwards to start the machine when it is positioned high in relation to the operator.
Long lifetime and easy service is achieved through a high capacity air filter, even for large quantities of dust. The filter is easy to access for fast servicing.
