HITACHI EX150LC-5 CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Hitachi EX150LC-5 is a robust hydraulic excavator designed to deliver superior performance in medium to heavy construction applications. Powered by a turbocharged A-4BG1T engine with a displacement of 264 cubic inches, it produces a net power output of 99 horsepower measured at 2150 rpm and achieves a maximum torque of 260.4 lb-ft at 1600 rpm. This powertrain supports efficient hydraulic operations with a pump flow capacity of 66.6 gallons per minute and a relief valve pressure of 4980 psi, enabling powerful boom, stick, and bucket functions. The machine offers versatile boom/stick configurations optimizing reach and digging depth. Option 1 provides a max cutting height of 27.9 ft and digging depth of 18 ft, while Option 3 extends these capabilities to a max cutting height of 29.8 ft and a digging depth of 21.5 ft. The maximum bucket capacity ranges from 0.7 to 1.1 cubic yards, supporting diverse excavation demands. Dimensionally, the EX150LC-5 features a width of 8.5 feet (outside of tracks), a ground clearance of 1.6 feet, and a tail swing radius of 8.1 feet, facilitating maneuverability in constrained workspaces. The length of the track on the ground is 10.2 feet, with 43 track shoes per side each measuring 23.7 inches, generating a ground pressure of 6.3 psi and a max travel speed of 3.3 mph. The unit's operating weight is approximately 33,520 pounds, supported by a 66.1-gallon fuel capacity and comprehensive hydraulic fluid capacities including 39.7 gallons for the hydraulic system and 4.3 gallons for engine oil. The excavator is equipped with a 40-amp alternator and a swing mechanism capable of 13.2 rpm, ensuring operational efficiency and reliability in demanding environments. Shipping dimensions vary by configuration, with overall lengths around 28 feet and heights near 10 feet, allowing for transport flexibility. This combination of power, hydraulic performance, and dimensional design makes the Hitachi EX150LC-5 a capable excavator for various construction and excavation tasks.
