Power consumption

The power of the engine used in an electric or gasoline demolition hammer. This parameter is used to indicate the total power consumption (useful power is less due to losses in the mechanisms) and, accordingly, it determines the connection requirements: the power grid must be able to deliver the required current without overloads and failures.

In general, the more powerful the tool, the better it is able to handle hard materials or large volumes of work. High power values make it possible to provide adequate energy for each individual impact and/or numerous strokes per minute. At the same time, we can say that power is a secondary parameter, and when choosing, you should look primarily at more practically significant characteristics — the same impact energy or impact frequency.

Functions

Soft start. The presence of a soft start system in the design of an electric demolition hammer (see "Type"). The features of the electric motors used in modern power tools are such that when turned on directly, the rotation speed increases very sharply; this leads to rather strong jerks, increasing the risk of letting go of the tool. In addition, starting currents are high, which increases the load on the power grid. To avoid these phenomena, soft start systems are installed: they limit the starting current, allowing you to avoid sudden surges and power surges in the network.

Adjustment of the number of strokes. The presence of a regulator that allows you to change the number of blows (see above) issued by a demolition hammer. This function makes it possible to adjust the mode of operation of the tool depending on the specifics of the situation: for large-scale work, you can bring the number of strokes to the maximum and provide the necessary performance, and for small volumes that require accuracy, reduce the frequency so as not to “gouge too much”.

Maintaining the number of strokes. The presence of a system that automatically regulates the number of blows (see above) issued by a demolition hammer. This system adjusts the operating mode of the tool in such a way that the frequency of impacts remains the same regardless of the load on the working noz...zle. This has a positive effect on the quality of work, and also increases the service life of the demolition hammer and replaceable nozzles.

Power button lock. This term, usually, means the ability to block the power button of the demolition hammer in the on state — so as not to strain your finger, constantly holding it during operation. This is especially useful during long jobs where holding down the button all the time would be quite tiring. In addition, a lock in the off state can also be provided — this function plays the role of protecting against children, because. the blocking is done in such a way that only an adult can turn it off.

Vibration protection system. This term implies various devices and design features — dampers, counterweights, shock-absorbing materials, etc. — reducing the vibration of the tool felt by the operator. Powerful vibrations have a negative impact not only on the accuracy of work, but also on the well-being of the user: with a short exposure they lead to rapid fatigue, with a long exposure they can be harmful to health. To avoid this, various protection systems are provided. At the same time, we note that this function is really necessary only for long-term regular work, so it cannot be called mandatory for modern demolition hammers. In addition, the types of vibration protection and, accordingly, its effectiveness in different models can vary markedly.

Carbon brush replacement indicator. The presence in the design of an electric demolition hammer (see "Type") of an indicator signaling the need to replace the carbon brushes of the engine. Such brushes are one of the most important parts of the collector electric motor: they provide the transfer of electricity from the stationary part of the motor (stator) to the rotating part (rotor). However, upon contact with the carbon brushes, the moving rotor gradually erases them, worsening the contact and reducing the efficiency of the electric motor (up to complete failure); and the inevitable vibration during operation further accelerates this process. In order to keep the engine running, the brushes must be changed periodically. This indicator warns the user about the need for such a replacement; monitoring the condition of the brushes in this way is easier than keeping track of hours of operation, assessing the condition of the tool “by ear”, or using other impromptu methods.

In box

Additional handle. The presence in the design or delivery set of an additional handle — in addition to the main one. This feature makes it easier to hold the tool with two hands; theoretically, the second hand could hold on to the body directly, but in fact it is inconvenient, and often unsafe. Almost all modern demolition hammers involve a two-handed grip during operation, so this feature is found in the vast majority of tools. The only exceptions are certain models of the light class (see "Weight"), in which there is nowhere to put an additional handle — it is easier to provide a case that is comfortable to hold.

Pika (chisel). Availability of a working nozzle in a set of delivery of a demolition hammer. The purchase of such a kit can save the user from the need to buy a nozzle separately — in other words, by purchasing a hammer with a pike, you will immediately receive a tool ready for work. However, it must be borne in mind that there are many types of nozzles, with their own specialization, and it is not a fact that the complete version is suitable for the types of work for which it is planned to use the tool. Therefore, it's ok to clarify the features of the complete nozzle separately. Note that the common name "peak" is technically more correct. Nozzles are often combined under the term “chisel”, however, a pick-chisel is just one of the varieties of peaks that has a flat, pointed blade a...nd is designed to cut through metal parts and punch through hard surfaces. In addition to it, there are also pick-scrap (for crushing and loosening), pick-blade (for processing flat surfaces), pick-rammer (for compacting soft materials such as soil or putty), etc.

Case. The presence in the delivery set of a hard suitcase — a case — designed for storage and transportation of a demolition hammer. Of course, other devices can be used for these purposes — bags, boxes, etc. — however, complete cases are perhaps the most convenient option. So, they are quite comfortable to carry in your hands, the hard case protects the contents of the case and surrounding objects well from each other, and the tool and accessories for it most often fit tightly into separate recesses and do not hang around the suitcase. Note that in the absence of a case in the kit, the possibility of its separate purchase, usually, is not provided.

Weight

The total weight of the tool — usually, without taking into account the installed nozzle.

In the case of demolition hammers, weight depends not only and not so much on the comfort of holding in hands, but on specialization. The specifics of the work carried out by this tool is such that a large weight is often an advantage, not a disadvantage. Therefore, modern demolition hammers are conventionally divided into three "weight categories":

— Lightweight — models weighing up to 6 – 7 kg. Designed mainly for work on vertical surfaces, when the tool has to be held on weight.

— Medium — up to 10 – 12 kg. Used primarily for horizontal surfaces.

— Heavy — up to 30 kg or more. They are used in road works, when laying the foundation and for other similar tasks where high power and productivity are required.
