Testing is taking place at the plant test site on fully loaded body of a dump truck

BELAZ-75588 is our new development: the vehicle almost fully consists of spare parts from Russia and Belarus.

90 tons dump truck is equipped with gas turbine engine with power of 1250 hp, which is made by Russian company “Kaluga Engine”. The engine is specially adapted for BELAZ – particularly it has reducer, which lowers the traction and has gas control system.

BELAZ-75588 also has external differences. The most noticeable - displacement of filters under the radiator grill. In addition, it has more than usual: instead of 2 it has 5. This is caused by the need for more air to run this engine, and due to absence of liquid cooling in it. Blowing air cools down the turbine in dump truck

Gas dump truck – is ecologically and economically profitable equipment. The price of a natural gas is lower of the diesel fuel, gas turbine engine requires less maintenance costs. Moreover, KADVI is able to provide reliable starting and performance in all climatic conditions, in air temperatures from -50°C to +50°C.

BELAZ-75588 – is the second gas project of BELAZ in popular segment of 90 ton dump truck. We remind you: BELAZ-7558H with Chinese engine is successfully passing the tests on a real mine pit in Russia now.
