Volvo ECR50D overview

Volvo ECR50D features overview

Automatic two-speed travel
Experience an increased working range of new digging equipment along with improved boom and attachment geometry. With its 5-tonne weight, this machine effectively handles heavy loads with greater stability, balance and control. Tractive force has improved. For optimized travel speed and traction, the automatic two-speed driving function allows the operator to continuously drive the machine at high speeds. When more effort is needed, speed is automatically reduced.
Digging forces
Up and forward pushing on the blade lever engages the blade cylinder to exert a minimum but consistent amount of leaf drive force. Thanks to its ideally rounded design, the float blade offers precision finishing and is ideal for ground levelling, grading and contouring. The ECR50D features superior breakout and tear forces as well as large lifting capacities that deliver fast cycle times in tough applications.

Engine and hydraulics
Volvo hydraulics system is perfectly matched to Volvo's premium engine and components, providing high performance and superior fuel efficiency.
Engine access
Spend more time working and less time performing service tasks with grease points on the same side of the machine and a 50-hour minimum lubrication interval for all greasing points. The side position of the engine allows easy access to grouped check points including engine oil, air filter, coolant level and fuel filtration control. Maintenance interval between motor oil and engine filter is up to 500 hours.
Patented hydraulic filter
Volvo's patented, multi-functional hydraulic oil filter ensures filtration when the tank is filled or replenished and before it returns via drain lines. The transparent shell allows easy oil level checks and permits early detection of contaminants so that preventative maintenance can be performed before damage occurs.
Service access
The side position of the engine, together with the two gas-suspended and wide opening hoods, ensures safe and easy access to all components and service check points from ground level. Grouped filters make maintenance simple and maximize uptime.
Automatic engine shutdown
The auto engine shutdown function automatically turns off the engine to reduce fuel consumption and engine operating hours when the machine is inactive for a time selected by the user.The engine rpm is reduced to idle if the controls are not active for a period of time chosen by the user or with increased left console; thus reducing fuel consumption and noise. The engine immediately returns to pre-selected speed when the operator touches any
Load-sensing hydraulics
Volvo load-sensing hydraulics deliver power on demand, lowering fuel consumption. The system ensures quick response for fast cycle times while ensuring smooth operation by precise control of equipment.
Service access
The side position of the engine together with two wide opening hoods ensures safe and easy access to all components and service check points from ground level.
Patented hydraulic filter
Filtration occurs when the tank is filled or replenished and before oil returns via drain lines.
Automatic engine shutdown
This feature automatically turns off the engine to reduce fuel consumption and cuts engine operating hours when the machine is inactive for a pre-set time.
Engine and hydraulics
The state-of-the-art, loadsensing hydraulic system is perfectly matched to the premium Volvo engine and components that deliver high performance and superior fuel efficiency.
Greasing points
To make maintenance easy, lubrication points are located on the same side of the machine and the greasing interval is 50 hours.

Hydraulics

General purpose buckets
The perfect tool for digging and handling in a wide variety of ground conditions. Available in different widths.
Fixed ditching buckets
Ideal for trench cleaning, grading, landscaping and backfilling. Round-shaped body, central reinforcement plates gives extra strength and rigidity, drainage holes to reduce weight during the day.
Tiltable ditching bucket
This bucket can be tilted 45 to each side, making it a flexible and versatile solution for grading, landscaping, ditch cleaning and backfilling. Buckets are delivered ready-to-work, with: Two hydraulic hoses. Two hydraulic connections (flat surfaces). One Volvo operator's manual.
Spade nose
Side cutters provide a longer bucket life by protecting side plates and corner welds.
