PACCAR TX-12 PRO Automated Transmission Now Available with Kenworth Medium Duty Models
The PACCAR PX-9, with one of the highest power-to-weight ratios in the industry, can be specified with peak horsepower ranging between 260-380 hp for on-highway and vocational use; up to 450 hp with 1,250 lb ft of torque for fire service vehicles. “Versatility and durability are what the Kenworth T380 and T480 are all about,” said Kevin Haygood, Kenworth’s assistant general manager for sales and marketing. “For customers who prefer an AMT (automated manual transmission) over an automatic option, the TX-12 PRO is the solution. It gives customers great performance and toughness when they use the T380 or T480 in demanding vocational applications.”
For those applications requiring a PTO, The TX-12 PRO is available with dual openings – a bottom mount 8-bolt and 4-bolt rear mount for a combined 95 hp capacity. To monitor performance and to ensure long-life, the transmission and clutch are both equipped with internal oil temperature sensors. Their temperatures can be displayed on the in-cab 7’’ digital display and can provide driver notifications in situations causing excessive temperatures. Oil maintenance intervals for the TX-12 PRO are 400,000 km, and the clutch is maintenance-free.
