PC180LC-7 Komatsu excavator specs & Dimensions (2003 - 2006)

Walk-Around

The PC180-7 is a rugged, productive, all-European machine. Designed and expressly built for European markets, it delivers productivity, reliability and operator comforts in a robust, environmentally-friendly package. Komatsu’s exclusive, on-board, HydrauMind system assists in all operations, providing enhanced machine performance that’s always perfectly matched to the task.

High productivity and low fuel consumption

The powerful turbocharged and air-to-air aftercooled Komatsu SAA4D107E-1 provides 90,0 kW / 121 HP. Productivity has increased with greater output in the ‘Power’ mode, while fuel efficiency has been further improved.

Power mode

For maximum power and fast cycle times. Normally used for heavy operations such as hard digging and loading. This mode allows access to the 'PowerMax' function to temporarily increase the digging force by 7% for added power in tough situations.

Economy mode

The environmentally-friendly mode. For running more quietly during operations at night and/or in urban areas. Fuel consumption and exhaust emissions are reduced.

Password protection

Prevents unauthorised machine use or transport. The engine cannot be started without your four-digit use or password. For total security, the battery is connected directly to the starter motor. Both the starter and the engine need the password. The password can be activated and deactivated upon request.

Low operating noise

Reduced noise levels during operation due to low-noise engine and other developments.Electronically controlled common rail engineMulti-staged injectionHighly rigid cylinder blockLow noise mufflerOptimal arrangement of sound-absorbing materials

Advanced Attachment Control

The PC180-7 can be optionally equipped to handle a wide variety of attachments. The advanced attachment control system features:Operator selectable hydraulic flow controlAdjustable presets for rapid attachment changeoverAttachment piping options

Four working modes

The PC180-7 is equipped with three working modes: (P, E, B), plus a lifting mode (L). Each mode is designed to match the engine speed, pump speed, and system pressure with the current operating requirement. This provides the flexibility to match equipment performance to the job at hand.

Fingertip hydraulic pump oil flow adjustment

From the LCD monitor, you can automatically select the optimal hydraulic pump oil flow for breaking, crushing, and other operations in the B, P or E modes. Also, when simultaneously operating with attachments and work equipment, the flow to the attachment is reduced automatically, thus delivering a smooth movement of the work equipment.

Pressurised cab

The standard-equipped air conditioner, air filter and a higher internal air pressure resist dust entry into the cab.

Easy end-of-life recycling

The PC180-7 is designed with the consideration of end-of-life recycling, effectively reducing its environmental impact.All exterior parts are made of steel.Extended engine oil, hydraulic oil and filter replacement intervals reduce environmental impact.All plastic parts are given a material code symbol.

Displays running conditions and abnormality indications

At the operator's fingertips: the VHMS controller monitors engine oil level, cooling water level, fuel level, engine water temperature, engine oil pressure, battery charging level, air filter clogging, and more. The monitor also indicates whenever abnormalities are detected.

VHMS ‘real time monitoring system’

The ‘real time monitoring system’ displays up to four different operating parameters simultaneously, giving the mechanic a total overview for faster troubleshooting. Parameters include operating conditions such as hydraulic oil pressure, engine RPMs, various voltages and currents, and even temperature measurement.

Side-by-side cooling

Since the radiator, aftercooler and oil cooler are arranged in parallel, it is easy to clean, remove and install them.

Washable floor

The floor is easy to keep clean. The gently inclined surface has a flanged floormat and drainage holes to facilitate runoff.

SpaceCab™

The new PC180-7 inner cab volume is 14% greater than the Dash 6, offering an exceptionally comfortable operating environment. The large cab enables the seat, with headrest, to be reclined to horizontal.

Cab damper mounting for low vibration levels

PC180-7 uses a new and improved viscous damping cab mount system that incorporates a longer stroke plus an added spring. The new cab damper mounting, combined with strengthened left and right-side decks, aids the reduction of vibrations to the operator’s seat.

Multi-position controls

The multi-position, proportional pressure control levers allow the operator to work in comfort whilst maintaining precise control. A double-slide mechanism allows the seat and controllers to move together, or independently, allowing the operator to position the controllers for maximum productivity and comfort.
