The series includes the ZX130 with an engine rating of 73.4kW
and operating weight of up to 14,500kg. At the higher end of the
scale is the giant ZX890 model with an engine rating of 377kW
and operating weight of 85,100kg. Additional models include the
ZX140W and ZX170W wheeled and ZH210LC hybrid excavators.
Frank Gili, General Manager of Sales (Construction & Forestry)
from HCA said: “The machines deliver a number of highly refined
features, based on market needs, which are a testimony to the
perseverance of development, testing and refinement.
“Equipped with the innovative TRIAS or redesigned HIOS III
hydraulic systems, the ZX-5 series will provide higher yields
with better fuel consumption compared to the previous model.
The result is simply lower fuel costs, with no compromise on
productivity, which over time makes a big difference to total cost
of ownership,” Frank said.
“In developing the innovative TRIAS system our engineers, based
on feedback from our customers, fully understood the importance
of improved efficiency without compromising productivity. This
is where the new TRIAS 3-pump 3-valve hydraulic system comes
into its own.
“Engineers put additional emphasis into the chassis design,
including reinforcing it with strengthening brackets to ensure
these are the most durable series yet.
"As far as maintenance goes, all areas for inspection and service
are now more accessible than before, which is just clever
thinking.
“The seat and console can now slide further back, offering
expanded leg space and a more comfortable working
environment for the operator. The console on the right side has
been ergonomically redesigned.
"The new heated air suspension seat is perfectly suited for colder
temperatures and minimises operator fatigue by absorbing
vibration during operation. And finally, to ensure easy access to
information, a large multi-function LCD monitor screen has been
added providing all necessary data, viewed in bright sunlight or
darkness,” Frank said.
