Fully-electric automated side loader with auger compactor and no hydraulics while on route.
The Heil® RevAMP® forever changes refuse collection and the way haulers view electric-powered garbage trucks. The all-electric design and powerful features offer unbeatable sustainability benefits while not sacrificing performance, range, or chassis options. Heil is proud to provide real-world solutions that can streamline businesses and improve bottom lines. Contact your local Heil regional sales manager for more information or a demo.
The Heil RevAMP automated side loader was developed with a mission of revolutionizing refuse collection. The 100% electric arm and auger compactor allows fleets to reduce their environmental footprint by reducing fuel use and greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions, while also eliminating hydraulic oil spills. This combination enables the operation of a fully-electric automated refuse collection vehicle (“RCV”), versus hybrid technologies that adapt a traditional hydraulic body to a battery-powered chassis and still require hydraulic hoses to operate the body functions.
The Heil RevAMP electric side loader is more environmentally friendly than any other standard automated truck on the market.
The all-electric body features a non-offset arm with no kick-out that provides smooth operation, helping to reduce driver fatigue. The arm itself is much quieter, and does not have any hydraulics to power it. The auger compactor allows for compaction through the front wall of the body and unloading with a pack-through eject panel to discharge the waste. This design provides a self-cleaning hopper, and does not require tilting of the body to unload it. With all body and arm functions being battery powered, no energy is drawn from the engine to power the body and the arm.
When the RevAMP body is configured with a diesel-fuel chassis, fuel consumption can be reduced by up to 38% when compared to a hydraulic body. This pairing can result in dramatic fuel savings per year.
When the RevAMP body is configured with an electric-powered chassis, the range can be maximized due to the elimination of the energy-robbing ePTO typically required on an EV chassis.
The RevAMP electric side-loader can be configured to be completely self-powered with its own battery packs for conventional diesel, compressed natural gas (“CNG”), or electric power chassis, and can also be integrated into an electric-powered chassis to use a common battery pack. The energy-efficient RevAMP refuse body can complete a full ten-hour route on a single overnight charge, while packing ten tons of legal payload, and still have battery charge to spare. In addition, the use of electric garbage trucks offers waste haulers and their municipal waste customers a new technologically and economically viable tool to support their sustainability initiatives.
No power draw from the chassis means maximizing chassis range when mounted on an EV chassis, using RevAMP’s independent battery. Can also be integrated into chassis to use a common battery pack with single point of charge.
When mounted on a diesel chassis, the RevAMP can deliver up to a 38% reduction in fuel consumption when compared to a standard comparable hydraulic body that drains power by use of a PTO.
When mounted on a CNG chassis, the RevAMP’s self-contained battery and no energy-robbing PTO can reduce fuel consumption, adding to the fuel-cost savings of CNG or RNG fuel.
Fleets face continued frustration around their ability to connect with their customers. Fleet owners need better tools to communicate with their drivers – to ensure customer needs are met – while also ensuring they are operating efficiently… and safely. Introducing Connected Collections® from Environmental Solutions Group companies, Soft-Pak®, Heil, and 3rd Eye®. Together, we’ve developed Connected Collections to help fleet owners make better decisions faster.
