Features & Benefits

Read why DD40 Electric is the perfect compactor for your urban project.

Perfect partner for urban project

The DD40 Electric is a 3.8 metric ton compactor that is used on small jobs by itself or assists with large jobs. It is a perfect match for projects that have sensitive or urban regulations. This may include road and parking lot compaction, smaller jobs, urban or sensitive areas like landscaping.

More power

This electric compactor allows you to explore new work sites. The DD40 Electric can operate with up to 30% more power than conventional machines at high altitudes where naturally aspirated diesel engines lose power.

Reliable charging

DD40 Electric is designed to operate for a full shift on a single charge, depending on the type of job and intensity. Integrated on-board charger allows for overnight charging from 0 to 100% in less than 7 hours, depending on AC power level. Optional off-board DC fast charger enables charging from 0 to 100% in less than 1 hour.

Zero-emission opportunity

The DD40 Electric creates a cleaner and more enjoyable work environment for operators, site teams and passers-by. An electric compactor is an opportunity for a completely zero-emission workplace if used alongside other Volvo electric powered equipment.

Quiet and comfortable

Reach a new level of comfort thanks to an electric machine. Significant reduction in noise, vibration and heat, as well as the complete absence of exhaust fumes, are some great side effects.

Highlighted technical features that makes Volvo DD40 Electric a great compactor for both owner and operator.

Get more from your electric compactor

Volvo Construction Equipment produces the most robust and durable compactors on the market. We have carried that over to our electric range and added some features to further its performance.

Responsive hydraulics

The immediate torque results in more responsive hydraulics. It helps operator to manage the machine with greater precision and in more comfort. Hydraulics system design and control is optimized to improve battery utilization and ride comfort. Dedicated steering and vibration pumps ensure constant vibration frequency which improves productivity.

Easy monitoring

Two features help the operator to quickly adept their work. The first is the water level indicator by which operator can easily monitor the water tank level from their seat. Secondly, two selectable frequencies allow the operator to easily change frequency from 55Hz to 67Hz to match performance with production requirements.

Less maintenance

The front and rear drums wipers are made of urethane for longer effective wiping and reduced maintenance. Another service-friendly feature is that the water nozzles are quickly removed without tools. Reduced time for maintenance means more productive uptime.

Robust technology

The DD40 Electric has an electric driveline which is based on proven Volvo architecture and components. The robust technology ensures great reliability and safety.

Proven Volvo technology

Our electric range is built on proven technology of the Volvo compactors and combines it with the additional benefits that come from going electric. Operators will benefit from low noise and lower vibration, as well as more responsive hydraulics due to the electric motor. An electric machine offers a better place to work, both on machine and on site.

Less vibrations in electric machines

Vibrations are often connected to health issues like headaches, back pain and fatigue. Fortunately, vibrations are at a minimum in Volvo’s electric construction machines, so you will feel better when you get home from work.
