POWER PACK EXCAVATOR POWER PACK

The perfect combination of brains and brawn, the BHP270 hydraulic power pack gives all of the available power to the Bull Hog mulching head, making sure there is no power loss due to accessories. The performance of the Bull Hog is maximized at all times taking full advantage of the maximum horsepower of the Power Pack. The microcontroller manages the head flow, engine, and hydraulic needs in real-time.

SERIOUS POWER FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE

SERIOUS POWER FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE

  • A hydraulic power pack, also called a hydraulic power unit, is a dedicated power source for any application where more hydraulic horsepower is desirable.
  • A 20 ton excavator (or larger) can benefit from the BHP270 excavator power pack. Typically you can provide 45-60 gpm to the attachment from a 20-30 ton excavator’s hydraulic system, while the BHP270 can deliver 107 gpm.

MAXIMIZED PRODUCTIVITY

  • Mulch Brush, Branches, Slash, Standing and Fallen Trees, Root Balls and Stumps faster and more effectively than before
  • On the job site, it all comes down to hydraulic horsepower
  • Optional weight kit to optimize balance and maximize productivity

FECON POWER MANAGEMENT

  • The performance of the Bull Hog is maximized at all times taking full advantage of the maximum horsepower of the Power Pack’s 270 HP Cummins diesel engine.
  • The controller manages the head flow, engine and hydraulic needs in real time.

Frequently Asked Questions

The BHP270 is a dedicated hydraulic power pack for any excavator application where more hydraulic horsepower is needed. It gives all available power to the Bull Hog mulching head so nothing is lost to accessories, and a microcontroller manages head flow, engine and hydraulic needs in real time.

A 20 to 30 ton excavator typically supplies 45 to 60 GPM to the attachment. The BHP270 delivers 107 GPM, with a mulcher circuit rated at 107 gpm at 5,800 psi. That is what allows faster cutting on larger diameter material.

A 20 ton excavator or larger can benefit from the BHP270. Many Fecon Bull Hog excavator models can be paired with it, and an optional weight kit is available to optimize balance and maximize productivity on the carrier.

A Cummins QSB6.7 Tier 4 Final producing 270 peak horsepower. Fuel consumption runs 6 to 8 gallons per hour and DEF consumption is 0.2 to 0.4 gph. Slope rating is 40 degrees in all directions.

Dimensions are 84 inches high by 117 inches wide by 58 inches long, and it weighs 10,815 lbs. That mass sits behind the carrier, which is part of why the optional weight kit matters for balance.

Brush, branches, slash, standing and fallen trees, root balls and stumps, all faster and more effectively than the same head running on carrier hydraulics alone. On a job site it comes down to hydraulic horsepower, and that is exactly what the power pack adds.

Yes. The controller manages head flow, engine and hydraulic needs in real time, which dramatically improves engine response and recovery, sustains peak grinding power and gives the operator clearer feedback on what the machine is doing.

No. The BHP270 is an independent hydraulic power pack with its own Cummins diesel engine and its own pump, so the Bull Hog mulching head runs on the power pack’s flow rather than the excavator’s auxiliary circuit. That leaves the excavator’s hydraulics free for the boom, swing and travel. The BHP270 mulcher circuit is rated at 107 gpm at 5,800 psi, compared with the 45 to 60 gpm a 20 to 30 ton excavator typically sends to an attachment.

Yes. Both terms describe an engine or motor driving a hydraulic pump to supply flow and pressure to a tool. Most hydraulic power units are small electric or gas units for shop equipment and hand tools. The BHP270 is a diesel hydraulic power unit built for one job, driving a forestry mulching head on an excavator, with a 270 HP Cummins QSB6.7 Tier 4 Final engine and Fecon Power Management controlling flow in real time.

Fecon sells the BHP270 through its dealer network. Use Find a Dealer to reach a dealer near you, and have your excavator details ready so they can confirm the fit and quote the power pack together with the right Bull Hog head. Used Fecon equipment, when available, is listed on feconused.com.
