Technical Description
The Volvo L350H wheel loader is a high-performance machine engineered for demanding applications in mining, quarrying, and heavy infrastructure. Powered by a Volvo D16J 6-cylinder engine with variable geometry turbocharging, it delivers 532 hp (397 kW) at 1,700 rpm and 2,550 Nm of torque at 1,400 rpm, ensuring robust power and efficiency. The driveline features Volvo HTE 400 transmission and Volvo AHW 90 axles, with a 2.65 torque multiplication ratio and a maximum transport speed of 23.7 mph (37 km/h). The hydraulic system operates at up to 26 MPa, enabling fast cycle times: 8 seconds for lift, 4.7 seconds for lower, and 1.9 seconds for tilt, with a total cycle time of 14.6 seconds. The loader offers a breakout force of 100,152.4 lbs (45,429 kg), a bucket width of 13.1 ft (4 m), and a dump clearance at max raise of 11.9 ft (3 m). The operational weight is 116,460 lbs (52,826 kg), with a rated bucket capacity of 8.6–16.6 cu yds (6–12 m³). The machine has a wheelbase of 14.2 ft (4 m), a length with bucket on ground of 36.8 ft (11 m), and a height to the top of the cab of 13.8 ft (4 m). The electrical system includes 2 x 170 Ah batteries, 24 V voltage, and a 2,280/80 W/A alternator. Fluid capacities include 153.5 gal (579 l) fuel, 96.5 gal (363 l) hydraulic fluid, and 14.6 gal (53 l) engine oil. The L350H features advanced operator comfort, serviceability, and a durable frame, making it a reliable choice for heavy-duty operations.
