JS190LC JCB excavator specs & Dimensions (2017 - 2021)

Componentry

Our engine technology is tried and proven; we’ve built 200,000 DIESELMAX units since 2004. To ensure similar longevity, the JS160/180/190’s EcoMAX T4 final engine has been tested for 110,000 hours in 70 different machines across the toughest applications and environments. JCB JS160/180/190’s boast the best components in the industry, including Berco running gear, Kawasaki pumps, Kayaba valve blocks and JCB EcoMAX engines. Saving money and time is more important than ever, so we’ve made sure the new JCB JS160/180/190’s componentry – including the EcoMAX T4F engine – works in perfect harmony. In turn, you get a machine that’s as efficient and productive as possible.

The efficient excavator

JCB’s new EcoMAX T4 Final engine uses less fuel than our Tier 4i units, saving you money. This is partly due to the fact that EcoMAX produces high torque at just 1500 – 1600 rpm, making for improved fuel-efficient matching of the hydraulics. To reduce noise pollution from unnecessary air flow, the JS160/180/190’s engine-driven cooling fan has a proportional control system, maintaining optimum fan speed. The JS160/180/190’s variable power bands allow you to tailor performance – and therefore economy – to specific tasks.

Versed in versatility.

JCB’s quickhitch system makes attachment changing fast and easy, and is purpose-designed for the JS range. For ultra versatility, JCB offers a full list of auxiliary pipework options including hammer, auxiliary, and low flow. The JS160/180/190 can also be fitted with a range of track shoe options. These span from 500mm to 900mm, and ensure your excavator is perfectly tailored to its application and the demands placed on it.

Upping output.

Simultaneous tracking and excavating is smooth and fast with an intuitive multifunction operation. A JCB JS160/180/190 has a solid, stable work platform for fast cycle times. With a massive 11600 kgf bucket tearout and fast cycle times, the JS160/180/190 is extremely productive in all applications. JCB’s innovative hydraulic regeneration system means oil is recycled across the cylinders for faster cycle times and reduced fuel consumption.

Easy maintenance.

The air filter on a JS160/180/190 is easily accessible, and a double-element construction simplifies cleaning. The filters on a JS160/180/190 (engine oil, hydraulic oil and fuel) are centrally located for fast, easy servicing. Because they’re mounted side by side on a JCB JS160/180/190, the engine radiator, hydraulic cooler and intercooler can be serviced individually yet cleaned easily.

Strength Inside and Out

Before you buy an excavator, you need to know it’s going to be tough enough to perform any job you ask of it. Fortunately, with a JCB JS160/180/190, strength and durability come as standard.

Boom and Dipper

A JCB JS160/180/190’s reinforced boom and dipper is made of high tensile strength steel, with single piece wrapper plates and internal baffle plates for long life durability. Our advanced manufacturing and assembly processes produce high precision and quality assembled components.

Structural Strength

The high-strength undercarriage of a JCB JS160/180/190 uses a fully-welded X frame construction for long-term durability even in the most demanding applications. A closed box section revolving frame increases strength and reduces stress. It’s also highly resistant to impact damage. The 160/180/190’s high-strength rigid upper frame provides maximum durability and support. Our stiff, durable door design gives great strength and rigidity.

Visibly better.

A 70/30 front screen split gives JCB JS160/180/190’s excellent front visibility. A clear view of the front right track provides easy, safe trench digging and manoeuvring. An innovative low-level bonnet provides excellent rearward visibility.

The working environment.

The JS160/180/190 creates a quieter working environment inside and out. Because we’ve reduced noise levels to 72dB(A) inside and 99dB(A) outside, you can use the machine at any location, any time. JCB JS160/180/190 cabs use 6 viscous rubber mounts to minimise noise and vibration. The positive pressure cab keeps out dirt and dust. JCB’s climate control option offers a precisely controlled cab temperature with fresh or recirculated air. Demisting/defrosting functions keep a JS160/180/190’s front window clear. There’s a spacious luggage tray behind the operator’s seat. A large floor area with large high grip pedals gives easy and precise tracking.
