EC700C Volvo excavator specs & Dimensions (2019 - 2021)

Excavator Performance

Big. Size alone won't get the job done. You have to back it up with production – every day. When the job is big, look to the excavator that does it all bigger, faster and stronger. The 70-ton Volvo EC700C will make you think it’s in the 80-ton class. That’s because it’s built like it. Get to work in the machine that will be your money-making partner for a long time. You might not have to move mountains – but it’s nice to know you can. The Volvo EC700C has all the power you need, plus perfectly harmonized hydraulics to make the most difficult material quickly go wherever you want. Mass excavation. Production trenching. Rock-face stripping. Mine loading. The list goes on and on. Just like the Volvo EC700C.

Safety and Environment

Volvo values the environment. Yours and ours. The Volvo EC700C is proof. The rock-solid exterior features a comfortable interior that helps you share the fatigue-free, work-all-day feeling your machine has. Safety and care is also covered inside and out. For you. For those working around you. For those living around you.

Environmental care

Volvo Advanced Combustion Technology (V-ACT) engine provides low emissions. Robust cab suspension mounts suppress noise and dampen vibration.

Engine

The 4-stroke Volvo diesel engine with water cooling has been specifically developed for excavator use to deliver low emissions, good fuel efficiency, long service life and superior performance. The EU Stage IIIA compliant engine uses turbocharged air-to-air intercooling and direct injection electronic engine controls. The automatic idling system reduces the engine speed to idle when no machine functions are activated, resulting in lower fuel consumption and lower cab noise levels.

More profit.

Powerful Volvo V-ACT engine: efficiently moves more tons per hour.Industry-leading fuel efficiency.The digging reach, depth and capacity to stretch your productivity further.Advanced hydraulic system is well matched for efficient, smooth control.Excellent lifting capacity – to pull out of the pile with no hesitation.Volvo quick fit: easy attachment change out for greater versatility.

Slew system

The slew system uses an axial piston motor, driving a planetary gearbox for maximum torque. An automatic holding brake and anti-rebound valve are standard.

Hydraulic system

The hydraulic system, also known as the integrated work mode control, is designed for high productivity, high digging capacity, high maneuvering precision, and excellent fuel economy. The summation system, boom, arm, and slew priority, along with boom, arm, and bucket regeneration, provides optimum performance. The following important functions are included in the system: Summation system: Combines the flow of both hydraulic pumps to ensure quick cycle times and high productivity.Boom priority: Gives priority to the boom operation for faster raising when loading or performing deep excavations.Arm priority: Gives priority to the arm operation for faster cycle times in leveling and for increased bucket filling when digging.Slew priority: Gives priority to slew functions for faster simultaneous operations.Regeneration system: Prevents cavitation and provides flow to other movements during simultaneous operations for maximum productivity.Power boost: All digging and lifting forces are increased.Holding valves: Boom and arm holding valves prevent the digging equipment from creeping.

More quality.

Strong undercarriage frame: endures daily abuse.Heavy-duty boom and arm: reliability and strength for difficult jobs.Reinforced boom/arm and proven components deliver every time.Reinforced superstructure: double welded stress points.Lifetime greased, sealed track chain prevents leaks and guarantees long life.

Drive

Each track is powered by an automatic two-speed shift travel motor. Track brakes are multi-disc, spring-applied and hydraulically released. The travel motor, brake and planetary gears are well protected within the track frame.

More comfort

New larger, more comfortable cab puts you in command.Roomy, adjustable seat supports your whole body.Improved noise insulation helps keep the noise out and the fatigue away.Vibration dampening: reduced whole body vibration and fatigue.High-capacity climate control system.

More uptime

Large, easy-opening service panels for safe, complete access.Easy access, centralized lubrication points.In-cab monitoring through the easy-to-read, color LCD monitor.Easy to learn. Easy to operate. Easy to get more done.

Your comfort zone

Adjustable seat puts any size operator at ease.Ergonomic, low-effort controls/levers put all functions easily within reach.High-capacity climate control system: comfortable in all weather.Fine-particle air filtration: keeps dust away from the operator and electronics.

Volvo views safety as a priority

Clear, all-around visibility from expansive glass and a thin front-window crossbar.Cab entry and exit is easier from wide access steps and sturdy hand rails.Sure grip step below the fuel port helps keep you anchored when refueling.Long, wide-gauge tracks, an extra-duty undercarriage and heavy counterweight provide sure-footed stability.

Cab

The operator's cab has easy access via a wide door opening. The cab is supported on hydraulic dampening mounts to reduce shock and vibration levels. These along with sound absorbing lining provide low noise levels. The cab has excellent all-round visibility. The front windshield can easily slide up into the ceiling, and the lower front glass can be removed and stored in the side door. Integrated air-conditioning and heating system: The pressurized and filtered cab air is supplied by an automatically controlled fan. The air is distributed throughout the cab from 14 vents. Ergonomic operator's seat: The adjustable seat and joystick console move independently to accommodate the operator. The seat has nine different adjustments plus a seat belt for the operator's comfort and safety.
