Utilizes a reinforced dual cooling system with a corrosion-resistant stainless steel heat exchanger, designed to prevent overheating during demanding uphill or stop-and-go operations.
The is a high-performance 6-speed automatic transmission specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern heavy-duty buses and coaches. As part of the globally recognized ZF EcoLife family , the 6AP1700B is defined by its 1700 Nm input torque capacity, making it a staple for city transit and intercity applications up to 32 tons. Technical Specifications & Core Features
One of the most distinctive elements of the 6AP1700B is the . This intelligent shift program calculates the optimal shifting strategy in real-time based on the vehicle's topography and load. zf ecolife 6ap1700b
The "6AP1700B" designation outlines its primary capabilities: 6 speeds, "A" for automatic, "P" for planetary gearset, and a 1700 Nm maximum torque rating.
Handles up to 1700 Nm (1254 lbf·ft) of engine input torque. Utilizes a reinforced dual cooling system with a
Equipped with a primary hydraulic retarder that provides wear-free braking performance down to a near standstill. This significantly extends the life of service brakes and reduces brake dust emissions. Advanced Intelligence: TopoDyn Life
Features six forward gears and one reverse, with a wide ratio spread that provides powerful acceleration from a standstill while maintaining fuel efficiency in overdrive at highway speeds. Technical Specifications & Core Features One of the
It automatically switches between "Eco," "Normal," and "Power" modes depending on whether the bus is traveling on flat ground, inclines, or steep descents.
By ensuring the engine operates at the most efficient speed for the current terrain, TopoDyn can contribute to fuel savings of up to 5-14% in specific transit cycles. Operational Benefits for Fleet Operators EcoLife 2 - ZF
