Volvo EC390 overview

Engine

Engine

The engine is a low-emission, turbocharged, 4-stroke diesel engine with intercooler, specially developed for excavator use. The machine can work at low engine speeds, contributing to good fuel economy, low sound level, less wear and longer life. Daily checkup of oil and coolant levels etc. is done directly from the cab.


Hydraulic and electronic system

Slew System

The superstructure is slewed by means of an axial piston motor and a planetary gearbox. Slew priority with 3 power positions. Automatic slew holding brake. The slew ring works in an oil bath.


Hydraulic System

The three-circuit hydraulic system, named “Excellence”, is designed for high digging capacity, high manoeuvring precision and good fuel economy. The three working pumps are power-controlled, and each can be directed to its own particular equipment movement for precision work. One pump is prioritized to the swing movement. The following important functions are included in the system: Power Booster (HLD) – All digging, lifting and tractive forces are increased. Slew priority – Power distribution between boom lift and slew movement to obtain best performance. Decelerator – Permits digging speed to be varied during a digging cycle (saves fuel). Float position – For more efficient topsoil stripping and grab work and better operator comfort and fuel economy. Automatic Decelerator and Speed Sensing Control are also included for optimum utilization of the engine. Hose rupture valves on the boom cylinders are standard.


Cab

Care Cab

Easily accessible cab with wide door opening. Lined with sound-absorbent material. The cab mountings are vibration-inhibiting. Large glazed surfaces all around. The upper windshield pane can be slid up into the ceiling and the lower one can be removed. Sliding side window in the cab door. Cab heater and defroster: Pressurized and filtered cab air is supplied by a 3-speed fan underneath the operator’s seat. The air passes through the cab heater and can be distributed via 14 nozzles. Prepared for air conditioning. Ergonomic operator’s seat: Electrically heated operator’s seat with adjustable suspension and headrest. The fore/aft position, height and angle of the seat are adjustable, as is the lumbar support. Individually adjustable armrests and control levers. Sound level: Approved according to Directive 86/662/EEC.
