Rotar International BV, a Netherlands-based manufacturer of hydraulic attachments for the demolition, recycling and scrap metal industries, has introduced its RSQ-full hydraulic quick-coupler adapter. The new RSQ-full adapters have been integrated into the construction of the attachment itself.

According to a news release from Rotar, the hydraulic hoses and the connection are inside the attachment. The rotator heads of the attachments have been redesigned for the new RSQ adapters. Rotar says the installation is performed at the factory, not by the user. The RSQ adapters are built directly into the slewing ring, and the bolted hammer top plate disappears completely.

The compact combination of the attachment and the new RSQ adapter offers advantages, according to Rotar. Depending on the size of the attachment, the combination can be built up to 200 millimeters shorter and up to 200 kilograms lighter in comparison with traditional hammer top plates. Operators will experience improvements in the stability of their carriers because of the favorable center of gravity; this improvement has a bigger impact on high-reach excavators.

Rotar distributors or end users can order attachments with the fully integrated RSQ adapter straight from the factory for plug-and-play use. Rotar says it also has implemented a service inspection cover for the new RSQ adapter, providing easy access to components in the upper section of the attachment for service.

The company says all components, fittings and hoses needed for the installation are standardized, documented and listed in the parts manual by Rotar to facilitate repairs.

The RSQ adapters are available for the RSQ-60 through to the RSQ-90 for the RCC concrete cutter, the RDC combi shear, the RDP rotating pulverizer, the RG demolition and sorting grapple and the RSS mobile scrap shear attachments. The company says additional sizes and combinations are available on request.
