Technical Description

The Volvo EC380DL is a mid-sized crawler excavator engineered for demanding construction and earthmoving applications, delivering optimal power and productivity in challenging terrain. Powered by a Volvo D13F engine, this machine generates 292 gross horsepower and 283 net horsepower, featuring a displacement of 781 cubic inches with an inline 6-cylinder configuration. The engine incorporates advanced technologies including direct injection diesel fuel delivery, a compression ratio of 18:1, and common-rail fuel injection for enhanced efficiency and precision. Operating at a maximum RPM of 1,700, the D13F produces maximum torque of 1,580 Nm at 1,300 RPM, enabling superior digging force and reduced cycle times. The excavator boasts an operating weight of 87,523 pounds (39,700-41,100 kg) and carries a fuel capacity of 163.7 gallons for extended operational periods. Dimensionally, the machine measures 11 feet in width to the outside of tracks, stands 10.5 feet high to the top of cab, and features a tail swing radius of 11.7 feet, with minimal ground clearance of 1.7 feet for superior stability. The track system utilizes 600mm wide shoes with automatic two-speed shift travel motors, delivering exceptional drawbar pull and maneuverability across variable terrain. The EC380DL incorporates Volvo's signature hydraulic system with automatic sensing work mode, boom and arm priority functions, and regeneration technology that collectively improve fuel efficiency by 8-11% compared to previous generations. The excavator's reinforced heavy-duty boom and arm construction from high-strength tensile steel ensures durability in severe applications, while the enhanced hydraulic system provides quicker cycle times of 8-10% for increased productivity.
