980H WHEEL LOADER

2005 Caterpillar Inc.

INTRODUCTION The 980H Wheel Loader has been updated to enhance performance and to meet the Tier III EPA regulations. The serial number prefix of the 980H Wheel Loader is JMS. The 980H Wheel Loader retains most of the features of the 980G Series II Wheel Loader. The 980H Wheel Loader is a direct replacement for the 980G Series II Wheel Loader.

SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES


FEATURES Engine Power Train Attachments Cooling Package Machine Appearance Monitoring System Hydraulic System Operators Station DIFFERENT X X X X X X X X SIMILAR SAME

2 SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES The two most significant changes to the 980H Wheel Loader are the engine and the power train. The engine is changing from the Caterpillar 3406E to the Caterpillar C15 ACERT. The most significant change to the power train is the transmission hydraulic control. The transmission hydraulic control has changed from the Powershift Transmission control to the Electronic Clutch Pressure Control (ECPC). The diagnostic lines group is standard on the 980H Wheel Loader. The diagnostic lines group is an attachment on the 980G Series II Wheel Loader. The appearance of the 980H Wheel Loader is changed slightly. Changes to the machines appearance include the hood, the fuel tank, and the battery boxes. The cooling package is changed on the 980H Wheel Loader. The 980G Series II Wheel Loader is equipped with the Advanced Modular Cooling System (AMOCS). The 980H Wheel Loader is equipped with the Next Generation Modular Radiator (NGMR) cores.

POWER TRAIN Electronic Clutch Pressure Control (ECPC) Transmission The transmission hydraulic control on the 980H Wheel Loader is an ECPC. Six externally mounted solenoid valves (1) are located on top of the transmission case (2). The solenoid valves are controlled by the Machine ECM. The Machine ECM controls the fill and the engagement modulation of the six transmission clutches.

11 This illustration along with illustration No. 10 shows the relationship between the input and output components that makeup the transmission electronic control system. All the maximum clutch pressures are determined by the transmission relief valve; therefore, all clutch pressures readings should be the same. Maximum clutch pressures no longer have to be individually calibrated to various pressure levels. The operation of the transmission is controlled by the programming stored in the Machine ECM. Actions taken to shift the transmission are based on information received by the Machine ECM. The transmission electronic control system provides improved flexibility and response over the mechanical and hydraulic controls used in earlier machines. The Machine ECM improves shift quality by reducing shift harshness and shift hesitation. Shift harshness is reduced by improved control over the clutch piston at TOUCHUP and by using a feedback signal to adjust the modulation time to the shift load. Shift hesitation is reduced by overlapping the currents to the proportional solenoid valves for the off-going (releasing) clutch and on-coming (engaging) clutch.

MACHINE APPEARANCE The top of the cooling package (1) is lower and the entire cooling package is wider on the 980H Wheel Loader. This allows the operator better vision to the rear while maintaining cooling capacity. The hood (2) features a gradual bend and bolt on integrated fenders. The fuel tank (3) features an integrated ladder. The 980H Wheel Loader is equipped with two battery boxes (4). One is located on each side of the machine. Each battery box contains two 12V batteries connected in series. The positive battery lead connects to the batteries on the right side of the machine, and the negative battery connects to the batteries on left side of the machine. The 980H Wheel Loader utilizes a 24V electrical system.
