How much hydraulic power does a cat 320C have?

How much hydraulic power does a cat 320C have?

I followed the instructions from CAT and I should have measured 0,2 to 0,75 Amperes at the Solenoid input and 4,8bar (70 psi) to 34,5 bar (500 psi) pressure at the tap. However, for the electricity I get 0,14 to 0,5 Amps and for the pressure I get 4bar (58 psi) to 22 bar (319 psi).

Why is my cat 320C excavator engine stalling?

I have been having a lot of trouble with a CAT 320C Excavator (S/N BDE00683) with 16 000 hours on the clock, which my boss just bought. The excavator is well serviced, engine looks and works well, but when under load, the engine revs go down very fast, it stalls and there is no hydraulic power. I can excavate only with the tip of the bucket.

Which is better 320F excavator or cat grade?

Offering the industry’s highest level of standard factory-equipped technology, including Cat Grade with 2D, Grade with Assist and Payload. Use up to 25% less fuel than the 320F excavator.

Can a hydraulic excavator be used with a cat?

The electronically controlled, twin-turbocharged engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage IV emission standards using a transparent after treatment system that requires no operator input or downtime. Auxiliary hydraulic options give you the versatility to use a wide range of Cat attachments.

What is the maximum pressure of a 320 hydraulic excavator?

Maximum Pressure – Equipment – Normal 35 000 kPa 5,075 psi Maximum Pressure – Equipment – Lift Mode 38 000 kPa 5,510 psi Maximum Pressure – Travel 34 300 kPa 4,974 psi Maximum Pressure – Swing 27 500 kPa 3,998 psi Boom Cylinder – Bore 120 mm 4.7 in Boom Cylinder – Stroke 1260 mm 49.6 in Stick Cylinder – Bore 140 mm 5.5 in

What are the different types of hydraulic tanks?

In this way, we can categories hydraulic into two types. Pressure tank. Atmospheric Tank: Because of the atmospheric tank is open with the atmosphere via a breather so, pressure on the suction line depends only on the liquid level. Hence, we can not increase the pressure anymore.

How old is Cat Man 320 hydraulic excavator?

Cat man 320 at 12 years you don’t say hr meter reading you pump may bedown om flow what most miss that the modern hydraulic excavator is just a hydraulic power pack if flow’s down cycl times will be slow your Cat dearler should have some one and tooling to carry out hydraulic test to pin point problem’s

How much does a 320 hydraulic excavator weigh?

320 Hydraulic Excavator Specifications Operating Weight and Ground Pressure 790 mm (31 in) Triple Grouser Shoes Weight Ground Pressure 4.2 mt (9,300 lb) Counterweight + Base Machine Reach Boom + R2.9 (9’6″) Stick + 1.19 m3 (1.56 yd3) HD Bucket 22 500 kg 49,600 lb 35.5 kPa 5.2 psi 4.7 mt (10,400 lb) Counterweight + Base Machine

Is the cat 320 slow on every movement?

The 320 is slower on every movement. I never run my machines at full throttle , some operators say you have to but I don’t. I usually run my 320 at 7 or 8 but never 10 . I save a lot of fuel and do just as much work . It may be that the pump is worn and cannot produce pressures needed, but I don’t know for sure .

What makes a 320d hydraulic system so efficient?

Component Layout. The 320D hydraulic system and component locations have been designed to provide a high level of system efficiency. The main pumps, control valves and hydraulic tank are located close together to allow for shorter tubes and lines between components, which reduce friction loss, and pressure drops in the lines.
