Engines and fuel system
Clutch
Transmission
There is also a modernized version of KamAZ 53215-15 with a board. Its technical characteristics practically do not differ from the main line.
Chassis device
The wheelbase of a KAMAZ truck is typical with 6 wheels, of which 4 are rear wheels. The 10.00 R20 pneumatic tires provide good travel speed for a truck.
The load-bearing frame of the truck is made of high-strength corrosion-resistant steel. Not the last attention is paid to the brake system. It is designed to reduce the braking distance of the machine and increase the safety of its operation. Pneumatic drive in combination with 140 mm wide brake linings and a 400 mm brake drum effectively dampen the inertia of a multi-ton vehicle.
The gearbox on the model 53215 is double. The main 10-speed “mechanics” and an additional one with a divider-demuplicator, designed to work at maximum loads. The demuplicator increases the transmission torque, thereby increasing the resource of the entire power plant and comfort when switching gears.
electrical equipment
The electric filling of KamAZ is represented by several parallel wiring systems, a built-in generator with a power of 800 to 2000 W and two batteries. The kit includes a voltage regulator and a rectifier unit. The 14-volt rotor allows you to control the output power of the generator, protecting electrical equipment from surges and drops in load.
Cabin inside and outside
The KamAZ cab, like any cabover cab, is very compact. The developers left the interior without any changes. As for comfort, KamAZ has never competed with XL-class "Eurocabins", remaining true to the motto "cheap, reliable and practical." Nevertheless, inside there is everything necessary for the normal operation of a Russian trucker in both hot summers and harsh winters: seat tinctures, a berth, a stove and a fan.
The suspension system and cab mounting remained the same. While driving, the driver and passengers will still feel the rolling and vibration. However, the noise of the motor will not prevent you from talking freely or listening to the radio.
Among the minuses is the inability to raise the cab on your own when you need to look at the engine. There is no hydraulic lift, and a minimum of two people can physically lift the cab.
Market price
The cost of a KamAZ 53215 truck starts at 1.9 million rubles. for the basic configuration and increased by 300-500 thousand for versions with various add-ons. Sellers in the market offer many used options that are subject to a regular discount.
Work on quality
Thanks to the efforts of the personnel of the Kama Automobile Plant, KamAZ trucks are gradually getting rid of many of their shortcomings. Driving performance is improved, aggregate installations and the transmission system are being improved. A new truck on the freeway with an empty body accelerates to 105 km/h! The brand of the engine, although considered obsolete, has a low level of emissions and complies with the Euro-3 environmental standard. It is to be hoped that the work done on the 53215 range is only the first steps towards a car that meets the requirements of the international market.
Various traction equipment is extremely in demand today, as it can be used in various fields of human activity: in mining, in construction, etc.
Therefore, KamAZ-53215 is one of the most popular models on the market among other heavy trucks. Low cost and high-quality assembly make it sometimes indispensable.
The modification of the truck in question is equipped with a rather powerful traction engine, marked as 740.31 240. Since it is diesel, a turbocharger (with a charge flow cooling system) is installed in it.
The power plant has the following operating parameters:
- torque— 909 N×m (with angular shaft acceleration of 1,300 rpm);
- general number of working cylinders- 8 pcs.;
- compression ratio(maximum) is 17 units;
- power- 240 l. With. at 2,200 rpm;
- combustion chamber volume– 10,800 cubic meters cm;
- path length from w.m.t. to n.m.t. is 120 mm.
Despite the fact that the engine standard is already considered obsolete, the unit is still classified as environmentally friendly. The amount of harmful substances released into the atmosphere along with exhaust gases is minimal.
More recently, the manufacturer made a restyling of the 53215 model. The main novelty in the modified version was the engine. Its power is 320 liters. With. But this model was released in a limited edition, and it is very rare on the roads.
A distinctive feature of the engine is a rather large allowable roll:
- the maximum allowable longitudinal roll is 20 degrees;
- the maximum allowable lateral roll is 10 degrees.
It is these parameters that make it possible to overcome extremely problematic places on the road associated with uneven terrain on this truck.
The engine resource is quite large. An oil change should be carried out at least every 16 thousand km. This parameter may vary depending on the operating conditions.
If KamAZ operates in conditions of constant dampness, with large temperature fluctuations, the oil should be changed more often. In a dry climate, where temperature fluctuations are minimal, a truck can be operated for 20,000 km.
The required volume of lubricants required for the normal operation of the machine's engine is 28 liters. The maximum allowable operating temperature of the cooling jacket is 95 degrees.
The volume of the tank can be different in different versions - 350 and 500 liters. Thanks to the large engine power, the heavy truck easily overcomes 25% of the slope without much difficulty at full load.
The turning radius is 9.8 m, which is quite a bit, given the overall dimensions of the truck.
The maximum possible speed of the car is 105 km / h, even with a fully loaded body.
Consumption, given the working volume of the engine, KamAZ is not so great:
- in summer per 100 km of track - 24.5 liters;
- winter per 100 km of track - 27 liters.
The considered power plant allows not only to transport about 11 tons of cargo inside the body, but also to attach a trailer to KamAZ, the weight of which can be up to 10 tons.
Technical characteristics of the KamAZ-53215 chassis
The truck chassis, despite the years of development, is still relevant. The frame, which is the carrier, is made of high-strength, extremely corrosion-resistant steel.
It allows you to withstand not only the weight of additional equipment, but also a fairly large mass of transported goods:
- laden weight of the machine- 19 355 kg;
- total trailer weight- 33 355 kg;
- front axle experiencing a load of 3,625 kg;
- rear axle- in 4,730 kg;
- mass of vehicles with an empty body(excluding all filling liquids) - 8,355 kg.
KAMAZ-53215 is equipped with six wheels, four are driving. They are made from high strength metal. If necessary, they are easily repaired and balanced, which is a great advantage.
Tires are pneumatic, tubes are used (although there are separate models with tubeless cylinders). Overall dimensions of rubber are typical - 10R20.
It is also possible to equip the truck with a platform with sides - this modification is most often used in construction. Its overall dimensions:
- in length - 4 800 mm;
- in width - 2 320 mm.
The brake system has quite impressive dimensions. This is quite justified, because KamAZ has great inertia due to its weight.
The brake system consists of the following parts:
- air driven actuator;
- brake drums with a diameter of 400 mm;
- brake pads 140 mm wide (total area of brake pads - 6,300 sq. cm).
The cabin of the car is located above the engine, it looks quite compact, but inside it is very spacious and comfortable. Equipped with a high roof, as well as an adjustable driver's seat.
If necessary, 3 adults, including the driver, can easily fit inside the cabin.
In some modifications, a berth is equipped, which allows for particularly long trips with relative comfort.
If it is necessary to repair the engine, you will have to raise the cab yourself, since this model is not equipped with a specialized hydraulic drive.
When driving, some vibration is felt, the suspension has not undergone major changes. The engine runs quite quietly, which allows you to talk in an undertone inside the cabin.
Also, the chassis used in the assembly of this type of KamAZ allows the installation of a variety of special superstructures. The ground clearance is as much as 290 mm - this is more than enough for driving even on severe off-road.
The running gear has the following parameters:
- front wheel track 2,050 mm;
- rear wheel track 1,890 mm.
Gearbox: main parameters and advantages
KamAZ-53215 uses a manual gearbox with a demuplicator - a divider. This type of gearbox was specially designed for operation in difficult conditions.
In fact, the modification of KamAZ under the number 53215 is equipped with two gearboxes. The dividing is located between the main gearbox and the clutch. Switching to it occurs in special cases (for example, when the engine is hard to work in second gear, and there is not enough speed in third gear).
The main gearbox has 10 gears. The gear ratio of the bridges that are leading is 7.22. The indicator of the main checkpoint is standard. There are also duplicate gear ratios, their use is possible with the participation of a divider.
Thanks to the demuplicator, not only engine wear is reduced, its resource is increased, but also driving comfort is increased.
The clutch in the truck is single-plate, diaphragm type. It is driven by a hydraulic actuator, which is equipped with a pneumatic booster. Also, in some modifications, a different type of clutch is used - with two working disks, without an oil bath, friction.
Overall dimensions of KamAZ 53215
The dimensions of the equipment in question are not so large, despite its impressive carrying capacity:
- cabin height, including the exhaust pipe located on it, is 3,100 mm;
- body length from the front bumper to the edge of the platform - 8,636 mm;
- platform height- 3 995 mm;
- distance between front and middle axle- 3 690 mm;
- distance between middle axle and rear– 1 320 mm.
Attention! The overall dimensions of the truck body are 6,100×2,320 mm. That is why this model is used in construction - such an impressive volume allows you to transport a large amount of building materials at a time.
Electrical equipment: main characteristics and features
Wiring consists of several branched systems acting in conjunction with each other:
- electrical wiring for interior heating, washer and wiper control;
- electrical wiring for indoor and outdoor lighting;
- instrumentation wiring;
- electrical wiring to start the power unit.
The main feature is the use of an 800 W generator in the design of KamAZ-53215 (some modifications are equipped with a 2 kW generator). This modification has a number of distinctive features:
Also, a rotor from a 14-volt model is installed on the generator: this solution can significantly reduce the overvoltage that occurs when the load drops.
This truck uses two batteries at the same time, the operating voltage of each is 12 V.
Today, KamAZ is one of the most popular and widespread trucks. There are many reasons for this - unpretentiousness, ease of repair, relatively low cost.
According to some technical characteristics and comfort, it is somewhat inferior to foreign counterparts, but the difference in price fully compensates for these moments. For example, the price of KamAZ-53215 15 is 1,720,000 rubles.
