Faster cycle time

Do more in less time as the enhanced hydraulics system increases pump power for faster and smoother operation, resulting in quicker cycle times and higher productivity.

Own it all

Secure more profit and reduce your Total Cost of Ownership by lowering fuel consumption and increasing uptime with the ECR145E/ECR235E short swing radius excavator. The winning combination of an enhanced hydraulics system with fully electronic control system, improved ECO mode, convenient service access and easy maintenance, all contribute to lower costs and higher productivity.

ECO mode

For better fuel efficiency without sacrificing performance and power in most operating conditions, Volvo’s unique and intelligent ECO mode optimizes the hydraulic system to reduce flow and pressure losses in order to reduce fuel consumption. ECO mode is automatically selected but can be switched off via the keypad.

Auto idle and engine shutdown

Engine speed is reduced to idle when the controls are inactive for a pre-set amount of time between 3-20 seconds – reducing fuel consumption and noise. If the machine is left idle for longer, the optional auto engine shutdown feature will automatically turn off the machine.

Enhanced hydraulic system

The optimized hydraulics system combined with the fully electronic control system and advanced ECO mode, matches engine power, improves controllability and response time. This results in better fuel efficiency and productivity.

Engine

The latest generation, Volvo engine Stage V emissions compliant diesel engine fully meets the demands of the latest emissions regulations. Featuring Volvo Advanced Combustion Technology (V-ACT), it is designed to deliver superior performance and fuel efficiency. The engine uses precise, high pressure fuel injectors, turbo charger and air-to-air intercooler, and electronic engine controls to optimize machine performance. Air filter: 3-stage with precleaner. Automatic Idling System: Reduces engine speed to idle when the levers and pedals are not activated resulting in less fuel consumption and low cab noise levels.

Attachment management system

The password protected attachment management system allows storage for up to 20 different attachments. The system allows the operator to pre-set hydraulic flow and pressure inside the cab through the monitor, which ensures the use of various attachments for increased versatility.

Drive

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