Particulars Escorts HYDRA 12 ACE SX 150
Overview Summary

The ACE SX 150 and Escorts HYDRA 12 are both robust hydra cranes designed for various lifting tasks. While the ACE SX 150 offers a higher lifting capacity and an extended boom reach, the Escorts HYDRA 12 presents advantages in engine power and maneuverability in tight spaces. Both cranes are equipped with features that ensure safe and efficient operation.

ACE SX 150 Hydra Crane

Pros:
  • Higher maximum lifting capacity of 14 Tonnes
  • Larger fuel capacity at 120 Liters which may provide longer operation time
  • Slightly more complex boom with three-part telescoping feature reaching up to 15.4 meters
  • Power steering through orbitrol for potentially more precise control
  • Durable heavy-duty sliding mesh transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse speeds
Cons:
  • Higher operating weight of 14200 Kg could mean less efficient fuel consumption
  • Relatively smaller turning radius which may not perform optimally in very tight spaces

Escorts HYDRA 12 Hydra Crane

Pros:
  • Lower operating weight of 8850 kg which could mean better fuel efficiency
  • Slightly more engine power at 49.5 HP which may mean better performance
  • Higher articulation angle up to 50° which can help in maneuvering in tight spaces
  • Lower minimum turning radius at 6250 mm for better turning in confined areas
  • Creep speed feature for precise movement at slow speeds
Cons:
  • Lower maximum lifting capacity of 12 Tonnes
  • Smaller fuel and hydraulic tanks which might require more frequent refueling and maintenance
  • Less complex two-part box type boom reaching up to 11 meters
  • Higher minimum operational width may impose restrictions in very narrow spaces

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

If the priority is higher lifting capacity and longer reach, the ACE SX 150 could be the preferred choice. However, for operations where space is constrained and maneuverability is key, the Escorts HYDRA 12 may be more suitable. Consider the specific requirements of the tasks at hand and the operational environment when making the final decision.
