Volvo’s 10-model, C-Series excavator line has an operating weight range from 12 to 70 tons with breakout forces from 19,000 to 80,000 pounds.
CareTrack, Volvo’s state-of-the-art telematics system, is now standard on all machines over 12 tons with a three-year customer service subscription. CareTrack is used to manage a machine’s productivity and maximize its availability for work. Using GPRS (mobile network) or satellite technology to send information, data is available securely and instantaneously to any remote online connection.
In-cab, operator-selectable hydraulic flow and pressure increases performance, especially when regularly changing attachments. It is highly responsive for fast cycle times.
A larger Volvo Care Cab offers more room where operators really need it, with particular attention given to allowing plenty of space for big boots to work without restriction. Visibility is also much improved – especially upper and lower visibility. In-cab noise levels are also reduced, thanks to the low revving engine, redesign of the cooling system and to the pressurized insulated cab itself, which blocks sound.
A new colour LCD display is easy to read, also in very bright conditions and offers real-time information.
The climate control system has the highest capacity heating and cooling ventilation system of any excavator.
All steps and platforms feature punched steel plates for superior grip. The new windshield wiper cleans a wider area — including both upper corners. An optional rear-view camera provides a safer view while slewing or during travel.
Ground-level access makes inspection and service convenient, straightforward and safer. Centralized lubrication points and long service intervals reduce downtime. An LCD monitor conducts a self-diagnostic check routine for maximum uptime.
A strengthened, high-tensile-steel undercarriage frame absorbs stress with rigid strength. The reinforced, doubled-welded boom and arm offer capacity, reach and force. The sealed-for-life, greased track link prevents leaks, reduces noise and ensures longevity.
