A key trend in the construction industry is the shift towards cordless technology. Battery-powered tools are increasingly used due to their safety, efficiency, and contribution to sustainability. With the POWERSHIFT system, DeWalt introduces a range of tools for the toughest applications, traditionally handled by petrol-powered equipment.
POWERSHIFT 554WH Battery
The power source that delivers consistent, high-performance power without petrol or cables is the POWERSHIFT 554WH battery. Thanks to its efficient battery cells, this battery offers an impressive capacity-to-weight ratio of 554 Wh / 5.3 kg, ensuring longer runtime and cooler operating temperatures. The glass fibre-reinforced nylon housing is both water and dust resistant.
The POWERSHIFT charger recharges the battery in 52 minutes and features LED indicators displaying charge levels at 80% and 100%. It can be mounted horizontally or vertically and can also be attached to the TOUGHSYSTEM 2.0 for easy transport on-site.
Compatible with FLEXVOLT
With the XR FLEXVOLT adapter, you can also use your existing XR FLEXVOLT batteries to power POWERSHIFT tools. However, the POWERSHIFT 554WH battery delivers the most power and the longest runtime.
Sustainability
Beyond increased efficiency and work speed, switching from petrol to battery power also supports environmental goals. Construction professionals face increasingly strict environmental regulations. DEWALT POWERSHIFT delivers the same power and performance as petrol-powered tools but without harmful emissions and with significantly less noise.
Complete System
Currently, the POWERSHIFT system includes six heavy-duty machines, covering the full process from preparation to installation.
Preparation:
• DCPS6560N POWERSHIFT rammer – Features a patented soft-start and two-speed settings for precise compaction up to 45 cm.
• DCPS7145N POWERSHIFT plate compactor – Equipped with a handlebar control panel for easy speed adjustment.
Installation:
• DCPS320N POWERSHIFT POWERPACK concrete vibrator – Delivers top performance without cables or petrol fumes.
• DCPS310N POWERSHIFT backpack concrete vibrator – Weighs only 11.6 kg, including the battery.
• DCPS330N POWERSHIFT screed – Ideal for levelling and surface compaction of cement and concrete floors.
Drilling:
• DCPS151N POWERSHIFT diamond drill stand – Provides an outstanding power-to-weight ratio for core bits up to 162 mm.
In the near future, the DEWALT POWERSHIFT system will be further expanded.
