P&H – further models: the collective page of the Harnischfeger mobile cranes from Milwaukee beyond the named series, from OMEGA S-30 to S-75-8X8, six-cylinder diesel, 15,950 cc displacement, up to 47,900 kg weight
P&H stands for Harnischfeger, the crane and excavator manufacturer from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, whose mobile cranes were sold in Europe under the P&H Omega name. This collective page gathers the Omega models the register could not assign to a named series: the OMEGA S-30 and OMEGA S35 in the roughly 30- to 35-tonne lifting class, plus the heavy eight-axle OMEGA S-75-8X8. In the designation, the number after the S indicates the approximate lifting-capacity class in tonnes, while the 8X8 suffix denotes the chassis axle and drive configuration.

The register lists 3 versions here with a six-cylinder diesel engine of 15,950 cc displacement, gross weights of 23,900 to 47,900 kg, and widths of 2,550 to 2,940 mm.
P&H Omega cranes occupied the upper segment of road-going mobile cranes, competing in building and civil-engineering work, assembly jobs and heavy transport against Krupp, Liebherr, Gottwald and Faun; the span from the lighter S-30/S35 class to the heavy eight-axle 8x8 variant shows the breadth of lifting-capacity classes.
When buying a used crane of this type, check the condition of the telescopic boom and winch, hydraulic tightness, the function of the outriggers, the condition of the chassis frame and axles, and the operating hours of both the crane superstructure and the driving engine; parts for the crane technology are today only available through specialist suppliers and successor companies to Harnischfeger.
