ECR305CL Volvo excavator specs & Dimensions (2008 - 2014)

More Safety

Volvo Care Cab with operator protective structure.Anti-slip, punched steel steps/platforms: superior grip and safety.Low engine emission levels and low noise.Lead-free exterior paint is in harmony with the environment.Cab door slides neatly along the cab, staying within the track width.

Engine

The next-generation Volvo diesel engine uses Volvo Advanced Combustion Technology (V-ACT) to deliver lower emissions and maintain superior performance and fuel efficiency. The EPA Tier 3 compliant engine uses precise, high-pressure fuel injectors, turbo charger and air to air intercooler and electronic engine controls to optimize machine performance.

Hydraulic kits

A wide variety of hydraulic kits is available for various boom and arm combinations. Each kit maximizes performance according to the machine’s boom and arm length/shape. Get the most out of rotating/tilting attachments, crushers and hammers. Choose between 1 or 2 pump flow for best performance.

Swing system

The swing 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 swing 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 during digging and for increased bucket filling when loading or performing fast deep excavations. Arm priority: Gives priority to the arm operation for faster cycle times in leveling and for increased bucket filling when digging. Swing priority: Gives priority to swing 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

Volvo durability built in: forged steel top rollers, strengthened track guard, greased/sealed track link.Strong undercarriage frame: endures daily abuse.Reinforced superstructure: double welded stress points.

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 protected within the track frame.

More Productivity

Class-leading stability for powerful lifting performance.Smooth combination boom/arm operation: even during travel.Dependable lifting capacity: handles the work of similar, conventional excavators.Fine, precise control: do it easily, do it quickly, do it right.Powerful Tier 3/Stage IIIA Volvo engine: dependable performance.Volvo quick fit: flexible compatibility and easy attachment change out.Optional dozer blade: high blade departure angle allows for steep slope climbing.

More Innovation

Short swing radius: work in confined areas or one lane of traffic.Excellent center of gravity for balance: including on slopes.Advanced hydraulic system: efficient, smooth control.Industry-leading fuel efficiency.Rounded cab shape: roomy, optimized design stays inside the swing radius.

Confined Areas

Confined areas now seem a lot less confining. That’s because you are free to work in your Volvo ECR305CL. You can operate in one lane of traffic, next to buildings on busy streets, or between utility poles. You can go where the work is, and you can handle it all with the power, lift capacity, and stability you demand. The Volvo ECR305CL is the short swing radius machine that 30-ton-excavator owners should turn to for commanding performance.

More Work, More Profit

At every turn – there’s more to do. The Volvo ECR305CL is ready. Every full bucket, every swing, and every load is executed with smoothness, precision, and comfort. For those in civil engineering, piping, material handling, and more, the Volvo ECR305CL will help you confidently turn the work that you perform into greater profit.

More Comfort

Volvo Care Cab: comfort you expect.High-capacity climate control system.Vibration dampening: reduced whole body vibration and fatigue.Adjustable consoles: easily find the right operating position.

Comfort and Productivity

Get comfortable with doing more. Less fatigue goes a long way toward productivity. The Volvo ECR305CL is the way to do it. The seat of comfort and command provides a quiet, safe space and ease of operability. With industry-leading fuel efficiency, Volvo helps you stay relaxed knowing that more of your profits are going into your pocket – not your fuel tank.

Electrical system

High-capacity electrical system that is well protected. Waterproof double-lock harness plugs are used to secure corrosion-free connections. The main relays and solenoid are shielded to prevent damage. A 95 A alternator with 2 x 12 V batteries is standard.
