SH160-5 Sumitomo excavator specs & Dimensions (2017 - 2026)

Automatic Power Boost

The digging power increases automatically in quick response to the working conditions without switching operations during heavy-duty digging work. It is SUMITOMO’s original design and continues for 8 seconds.

Multifunctioning Capability for Upper and Travel Operation

With the new hydraulic circuit, travel motion slowdown will not be experienced even during the combined operation of attachment and swing motion when traveling.

Flow Setting in 10 Patterns and Switching of Combined Circuit

The switch panel in the cab permits setting the flow rate for work with a maximum of ten different special attachments in advance. A circuit change for the breaker and crusher is also possible in the cab.

Engine and Hydraulics

A newly developed ISUZU engine 4JJ1X complies with Emission Regulations U.S. EPA Tier II and EU Stage IIA. This produces bigger output and torque, and far better fuel consumption than the previous model. The integration of the new engine system "SPACE 5" and new hydraulic system "SIH:S" has created an 18% fuel efficiency improvement in comparison with our conventional model.

Cooled EGR System

The EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) makes gas, which is once exhausted, with the air that is taken in so as to lower the combustion temperature, thereby reducing NOx (Nitrogen oxide). Adoption of the cooled EGR system, with a high efficiency cooler specially installed in the middle of the re-circulation pipe, permits further decrease in the suction air temperature, ensuring a better NOx reduction effect than the ordinary EGR.

16 valve DOHC Turbo Engine with Inter-Cooler

When the inter-cooler cools the intake air, which is compressed by a turbocharger and has reached a high temperature, the density of the air increases and the suction efficiency increases. Therefore, NOx and PM can be reduced substantially, permitting high output and improvement of fuel efficiency simultaneously.

SP (Speed Priority) mode

SP 'Speed Priority' mode has been developed, which is not available in competitors models nor in our previous models. This will create the biggest productivity in its class with more economical fuel efficiency even in comparison with the Heavy mode of our previous model. In addition, the throttle control is simple to use.

Mode Selection by Throttle

Mode selection by pressing the button in our previous model sometimes causes inconveniences for the operator. The throttle control system has been upgraded and the new system "A" mode, which stands for "Adjustment Mode," now covers the 3 previous modes of "Auto, Standard and Light." In addition, there is "H" (Heavy) mode and "SP" (Speed Priority) mode, and the hydrostatic pump oil flow will be regulated automatically in each of the 3 modes respectively. The SP mode is added to the operation mode. Furthermore, the A (Adjustment) mode is added to the SP and H modes, respectively. In comparison with the H mode of Dash 3, the SP mode has reduced the fuel consumption by 12%, and the H mode of Dash 5 has reduced the fuel consumption by 18% as compared with Dash 3.

Low Operation Noise

The ambient noise level is reduced by 4 dB, while the noise level inside the cab is reduced by approx. 4 dB. Reduction in the ambient noise by 4 dB achieves an effect equivalent to reduction in the sound sources by half.

Common Rail Type High-Pressure Fuel Injection System

The system is equipped with a common rail type high-compression fuel injection system, which permits high-precision injection from multiple injection under ultra-high pressure of more than 1600 kg/cm2. Precise control of injection time and injection quantity at that rate of 1/1000 second optimizes combustion, improves combustion efficiency, and reduces PM (particulate matter) substantially.

Quick and Smooth Control Response

A total review of the hydraulic circuit and miscellaneous hydraulic settings guarantee speedy and precise operation through a smooth control lever.

Hydraulic Oil Flow Control

In the case of sudden lever movement and high load activation, the newly developed hydraulic control system reduces the main pump oil flow intentionally and keeps the engine speed at a constant level. This enables a reduction in fuel consumption. In addition, this also reduces the level of exhaust smoke due to excessive fuel injection.

Reduction of Hydraulic Oil Flow at Swing

The hydraulic oil quantity required at the time of sudden swing motion is limited. The new hydraulic system can start the oil flow volume at the minimum level and then allow it to increase on demand. This optimum oil flow control significantly improves the fuel efficiency.

Reduction in Pump Stand-by Pressure

Reducing pump oil flow pressure during stand-by minimizes the load on the engine. This also improves fuel consumption.

Increased Pump Efficiency

The new modified hydraulic pump structure lowers the oil leak volume in the pump which means improved pump efficiency and improved engine fuel efficiency.

High-Performance Return Filter

The hydraulic oil change interval is 5,000 hours, and the return filter change interval is 2,000 hours. One high performance return filter keeps the same level of filtering effect as a nephron. The High-Performance Return Filter is made more precisely to condense the Nephron filter function.

Engine Oil Drain Coupler

The engine oil pan is provided with a drain coupler. This makes easier to do drain work and preventing oil from spattering with an attached drain hose.

Swing Frame

Reinforced plate on "A" frame is extended and the swing frame base is made in one-piece steel plate.

Operator Comfort

SUMITOMO's Redesigned Cabin and Seat for Optimum Operator Comfort. The seat reclining system allows the operator to tip the seat front and to rest on the side without removing the headset.

Operating Positions of Sliding Seat and Tilting Console

In addition to the tilting console that is adjustable in four steps vertically, the increased sliding distance ensures optimum working conditions.

Fluid Filled Cab Mounts

Four fluid cab mounts reduce vibration and impact transmitted to the cabin, and improve the operator's sitting quality and reduce operator fatigue.

Automatic Air Conditioner with Round Outlets for Increased Comfort

The air outlets of the air conditioner are provided with round grills with wide adjusting angles. The efficiency of the air conditioner has been increased by pressurizing the cab to make it airtight, providing a comfortable space.

Safety

The wide view increases the safety of work. In addition to the wide front view, the down-right view is also made larger to enhance the safety of work.

Accessories (option)

Cab-top light Rain reflector Polycarbonate with sunshade roof top window Head guard (FOPS level 2) 12V power (DC-DC converter) Air suspension (KAB 865) Rear view camera and monitor Hose burst check valve (for arm/boom cylinder) Re fuel pump

Simple to Read LCD Monitor and Switch Panel

In addition to the monitor that is easy to read during daytime as well as nighttime by changing the backlight to white, a simple and convenient universally designed switch panel is provided.

Convenient One-touch Muting of AM/FM Radio

An AM/FM radio is provided as standard equipment. The mute switch on the left lever permits one-touch muting of the radio.
