Technical Description

The Hitachi ZX225USLC is a robust hydraulic excavator designed for versatile heavy-duty applications. It features a turbocharged, intercooled AA-6BGIT engine delivering 147 hp (110 kW) at 2100 rpm, with a maximum torque of 405.7 lbs-ft at 1600 rpm. Its operating weight is approximately 24,487 kg (53,936 lb), offering a balance of power and maneuverability. The undercarriage consists of 49 shoes per side, each 23.7 inches wide, on a 7.9 ft track gauge, providing ground pressure of 7.2 psi and enabling a maximum travel speed of 3.3 mph. The swing mechanism operates at 13.3 rpm. The machine is available with three boom/stick options, varying in reach and digging depth: Option 1 provides a max cutting height of 34.7 ft and digging depth of 20.1 ft; Option 2 extends up to 36.5 ft cutting height and 22.3 ft digging depth; Option 3 offers the greatest reach with a 39.7 ft cutting height and 27.2 ft digging depth. The bucket capacity ranges from 0.7 to 1.6 cubic yards, with a reference bucket size of 1.1 cu yd. Maximum reach along ground varies between 30 and 36.8 ft depending on boom selection. Key dimensions include a height to top of cab at 9.7 ft, width over tracks of 9.9 ft, a digging depth of 22 ft, and a track length on the ground of 12.1 ft. Hydraulic system capacity is 52.9 gallons, with a pump flow of 102.5 gpm and relief valve pressure rated at 4980 psi. Fuel capacity stands at 71.4 gallons. This combination of hydraulic power, structural dimensions, and engine output enables the ZX225USLC to perform precise digging, loading, and material handling tasks effectively in confined spaces and demanding environments.
