Advanced Hydraulic Technologies
Increased Digging Force
7% more bucket digging force and 8%
more arm digging force*.
* At power boost mode / vs Conventional model
Enhanced Boom Recirculation System
In combined operation of boom lower
and arm, arm speed can be increased
by approximately 15% over the conven-
tional. Pressurized oil from boom cyl-
inder bottom side is delivered to boom
cylinder rod side to lower the boom, as-
sisted by boom weight. Conventionally,
pressurized oil from pump is delivered
to boom cylinder rod side to lower the
boom. The new system also allows
for an efficient combined operation of
swing and lowering the boom.
15% UP
Development Concept of New Engine
High Power Yet Low Fuel Consumption
4% Increase in output (vs. Conventional
model)
260 kW (349 hp) / 1 800 min-1
The new clean engine, complying with
the emission regulations Tier 3 in US
(EPA) and EU Stage III, can reduce fuel
costs by electronic control.
Boom Mode Selector
The amount the body can be lifted
or pulled by the front of machine can
be ON or OFF selected. This helps to
provide for more comfortable operation
and contributes to longer component
service life.
ON Comfortable mode
There is little lifting or pulling of
the body so there is less vibration
and shock.
Larger-Diameter Front Piping
Arm piping is increased in diameter to
reduce hydraulic loss (theoretically 7%)
for speedy front operation.
Common Rail Type Fuel Injection System
Electronic control common rail type fuel
injection system drives an integrated
fuel pump at an ultrahigh pressure to
distribute fuel to each injector per
cylinder through a common rail.
This enables optimum combustion to
generate big horsepower, and reduce
PM* and fuel consumption.
Fuel Filter Common Rail Pressure Sensor
Fuel Pump
Fuel Tank Control Unit
Combined Operation of Boom and Arm
In combined operation of swing + boom
lower + arm roll-out, or in leveling (boom
lower + arm roll-out), arm roll-out speed
can be increased greatly. Heres why.
A variable throttle, provided in the arm
circuit, adjusts the flow when needed
to reduce hydraulic loss in combined
operation with arm roll-out.
Arm Raise Swing
OFF Powerful mode
Boom Lower
Much lifting and pulling of the
Bucket Roll-Out P
body so there is more vibration
and shock. M
New Bucket Regenerative System
Swift bucket actions can be done in
combined operation for excavation
through the new bucket regenerative
circuit. When the load to the bucket
is light, pressurized oil from bucket
cylinder rod side is delivered through
a regenerative valve to bucket cylinder
bottom side for the effective use of
hydraulic energy.
Cooled EGR** System
Exhaust gas is partially mixed with
intake air to lower combustion
temperature for reducing NOx and fuel
consumption.
Whats more, the EGR cooler cools
down exhaust gas to increase air con-
centration for complete combustion,
reducing PM*.
