Doosan reaches out with super long excavator

Doosan Construction Equipment has launched a new super long reach version of the company’s Stage IV compliant DX225LC-5 crawler excavator.

Featuring 8.5 m (28 ft) boom and 6.2 m (20 ft) arm components, the new excavator is an all-round machine ideally suited for long reach work.

It has a maximum digging reach of 15.38 m (50 ft), a maximum digging depth of 11.65 m (38 ft) and a maximum digging height of 13.08 m (43 ft). The bucket digging force is 10 t and the arm digging force is 6 t.

With an operating weight of 24.4 t, the DX225SLR-5 is powered by the six-cylinder, turbocharged Doosan DL06P water-cooled diesel engine, providing a high power output of 124 kW (166 hp) at 1,800 rpm.

Doosan adds that the DX225SLR-5 offers convenience and lower costs by meeting Stage IV emission regulations through cooled exhaust gas recirculation and selective catalyst reduction (after-treatment technologies.

With the DL06P engine, the DX225SLR-5 ensures trouble-free performance as it operates without the need for a diesel particulate filter.
