VOLVO SD115B SMOOTH STATIC SMOOTH DRUM ROLLER

Technical Description

The Volvo SD115B Smooth Static Smooth Drum Roller is a high-performance soil compactor engineered for heavy-duty compaction tasks. It features a turbocharged 4-cylinder Volvo D4 Tier 4 F engine delivering 147.6 hp (110 kW) with a hydrostatic propulsion system and planetary gearbox for reliable drum drive. The machine’s smooth steel drum measures 59 inches in diameter and 84 inches in width with a 1-inch thick shell, providing a large contact area for effective soil compaction. It offers two speed ranges: a low speed of 2.8 mph and a high speed of 6.2 mph. Braking is managed by a spring-applied, hydraulically released parking brake on the drum and axle, while service braking utilizes a hydrostatic system. The roller has a ground clearance of 19.1 inches and overall dimensions of 239.9 inches in length, 7.1 feet in width, and 9.9 feet in height to the top of the cab. Its wheelbase measures 121.9 inches. The operating weight is approximately 25,668.5 lbs, balancing compaction force with maneuverability. Vibration output includes centrifugal forces of 58,000.8 lbs at high amplitude and 54,403.8 lbs at low amplitude, with a nominal amplitude of 0.1 inches in both modes, optimizing compaction depth and consistency. Fuel capacity is 43.6 gallons, and hydraulic fluid capacity is 19.9 gallons. The inside turning radius is 149.6 inches, enhancing site navigation. Electrical power is provided by an 80-amp alternator at 24 volts. This machine is well-suited for soil compaction in road building, site preparation, and heavy construction applications.
