Volvo EC380D Excavator

Quicker cycle times of 8-10%* from improvements in the enhanced hydraulic system which provides more flow to the bucket by using both pumps in conflux, as well as increased total pump flow and smooth combined operation. By simply using gravity, the optional boom float ensures there is more power available to the arm circuit for faster loading cycles and more control for leveling and hammer operation.

Achieve greater digging force and reduced cycle times, particularly when working with hard materials, from increased engine power, pump flow, hydraulic pressure and swing torque.

Improved tractive force makes it easy for the machines to climb gradients and travel over rough terrain.

Volvo’s unique ECO mode features sophisticated electronic pump control technology which improves fuel efficiency by an additional 5%. ECO mode can be used in the G, H and P work modes.

Reduces rpm to idle when the controls are inactive for a specified time – between 3-20 seconds – which is set via the I-ECU monitor. The system delivers reduced fuel consumption and operating costs.

The optional auto engine shut down function automatically turns the engine off to reduce fuel consumption when the machine is inactive for five minutes. Operators are informed via the I-ECU monitor before shut down occurs.

Volvo’s unique system incorporates the work modes within the throttle control for optimum performance. When the operator selects a work mode – I (Idle), F (Fine), G (General), H (Heavy) and P (Power) – the rpm is already set for maximum efficiency.

Volvo’s efficient diesel engine, enhanced hydraulic system and well matched components improve fuel efficiency by 8-11%. This ensures more material is moved per litre of fuel for reduced operating costs.

Volvo’s industry-leading cab boasts enhanced visibility from large expanses of glass and slim cab pillars. The spacious environment provides ample storage and leg room. The seat can be adjusted into nine positions for superb operator comfort.

An optional Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) certified cab is recommended for increased safety in the unlikely event of machine roll over.

A roof hatch is available as an option for increased air flow and extra visibility when the machine is operating at height.

Control your climate with Volvo’s powerful, industry-leading automatic climate control and defrosting system. With 14 vents, operators can set their ideal temperature for increased comfort.

Increase visibility and safety with an optional rear view camera which allows the operator to see the blindspot via the I-ECU monitor.

Large color monitor provides excellent clarity in all light conditions. Using a keypad you can make quick visual and diagnostic checks, increasing uptime and productivity.

Strong undercarriage featuring a durable fabricated idler, a large diameter roller and a thicker tooth sprocket and track link for increased machine lifetime. The lower frame features additional welding and thicker plating for added protection in demanding terrain.

Reinforced heavy-duty boom and arm built from high strength tensile steel increases reliability in severe applications. Protective strips are welded under the arm. Various boom and arm configurations available.

For increased durability, heavy-duty undercover plates provide additional protection to the underside of the upper and lower frame in tough job site applications, preventing damage from rock and debris.

The strong and durable structure can easily absorb impacts transferred from the digging equipment. Featuring reinforced welding between the centre and side frames, and the boom and boom cylinder mounts, for increased durability.

Optional heavy-duty bolt-on full track roller guards can be fitted for traveling and when working with rock to prevent derailment and protect the bottom rollers and track chain.

Grouped filters and greasing points are quick to access from ground level via large, wide compartment doors. Easy access for maintenance means regular checks get done faster, giving you more uptime.

Volvo’s unique, hydraulic fan-driven oil cooler is separate from the engine and radiator for easier cleaning and servicing – giving you more machine uptime. Independent coolers provide excellent cooling.

The hydraulic oil return filter boasts excellent filter function and only needs replacing every 2,000 hours – increasing service intervals, reducing operating costs and giving you more machine uptime.

Access the simple quick drains on the underside of the superstructure without the need for tools. The lubricant won’t spill out so you are able to quickly drain it away in an environmentally friendly manner.

This optional pre-cleaner prevents dirt from entering and damaging the engine for reduced maintenance costs and improved reliability. It is recommended for machines working in dusty environments.
