Largest excavator in Case line receives upgrades
Upgrades to the largest excavator built by Case Construction Equipment, the CX800B, include increases in fuel efficiency and productivity, as well as improved operator comfort and ease of maintenance. The excavator has an electronically controlled, common rail 15.7-litre Isuzu engine which delivers 532 net hp (397 kW). The common rail fuel injection system, combined with the redesigned hydraulic system, delivers increased fuel efficiency over the previous model. The CX800B is available in standard and mass excavation configurations. It also features regenerative hydraulics on the boom and arm, as well as the bucket curl, which speeds the cycle time required to get a bucket of dirt. Larger-diameter hydraulic cylinders deliver a breakout force of 74,187 pounds (330 kN).
Sound levels inside the isolation-mounted cab are among the quietest in the industry, even at full throttle. Reinforced tubular structures in the cab help dampen vibrations. The excavator cab features a seat that adjusts independently of the joystick controls for improved operator comfort and ergonomics. The CX800B excavator also features memorized operator adjustment, which automatically adjusts to the last settings selected by the operator. An optional air seat makes the operator even more comfortable.
The CX800B has an operating weight of 178,575 pounds (81,000 kg), a bucket capacity of 5.91 cubic yards (4.52 cubic metres), a bucket digging force of 96,668 pounds (430 kN) and a maximum dig depth of 35 feet (10.66 m).
