Electric wheel excavator
The STAAD 17W is not just any electric wheel excavator, but a groundbreaking, innovative and future-proof solution. This excavator is therefore the best choice for a wide range of tasks.
Danfoss eDrive, the power to be extra productive
The STAAD 17W is powered by an advanced Danfoss electric motor with SRPM technology, which is exceptionally efficient and durable. The liquid cooling system ensures reliability and a long lifespan, even under heavy conditions.
The compact design makes the motor lighter and more efficient than conventional motors, optimizing performance and energy savings. With 104 kW of power and 600 Nm of torque, the motor provides the necessary strength and precision for heavy tasks.
Danfoss has an excellent after-sales reputation in Europe, which increases the long-term value of the machine, even in the second-hand market.
ZF eTRAC drivetrain
Staad has collaborated with ZF for the integration of the eTRAC electric drive system, which features a 2-speed powershift transmission, liquid-cooled PSM electric motor with inverter, integrated parking brake, and robust ZF axles. The system delivers a maximum torque of 850 Nm and a continuous power of 80 kW. The standard hill hold system prevents rollback.
The eTRAC system has three driving modes: Low, medium, and high. In driving mode, the motor is powered by the Powerbox 300 battery, while in braking and deceleration mode, it functions as a generator, returning energy to the battery through regenerative energy recovery. This increases operational efficiency and sustainability.
By making driving independent of the hydraulic system, it is possible to drive and operate all hydraulic functions simultaneously without affecting each other, ensuring optimal efficiency and work satisfaction.

Charging
AC and DC
AC charging via a power outlet
The Powerbox 300 can be charged directly from the grid using a Mennekes CEE 32A 5-pin plug. This plug supports 3-phase connections (L1, L2, L3), neutral (N), and ground (PE) and is widely used in industrial settings for powering heavy machinery and equipment. The AC charging power is 400VAC@32A, with a charging time from 0% to 100% SOC (State of Charge) of approximately 14.5 hours.
DC charging via a DC charger using the CCS type 2 connector in the undercarriage
The charging speed ranges from 0 to 150 kW. At 150 kW, the charging time from 0% to 100% SOC (State of Charge) is approximately 2 hours.
DC charging via a DC charger
The Powerbox 300 can also be charged using a CCS Type 2 connector interface, located on the Powerbox 300 in the upper structure of the machine. The charging speed ranges from 0 to 150 kW. At 150 kW, the charging time from 0% to 100% SOC is approximately 2 hours.
