Extracting Key Data from Hitachi ZX225LC-5
The Hitachi ZX225LC-5 is a powerful, mid-sized excavator designed for heavy-duty earth-moving, construction, and excavation projects. Equipped with a 164 HP Isuzu engine, this machine offers high performance and fuel efficiency. The ZX225LC-5 has an operating weight of 24,500 kg, a digging depth of 6.67 meters, and a breakout force of 157 kN, making it an excellent choice for contractors requiring strength, precision, and efficiency.
Featuring Hitachi’s HIOS III hydraulic system, the ZX225LC-5 optimizes hydraulic response and cycle times, improving productivity while reducing fuel consumption. The reinforced undercarriage and boom construction ensure durability, while the spacious cab and ergonomic controls provide enhanced operator comfort. However, real-time monitoring of engine performance, hydraulic efficiency, and maintenance needs remains crucial to maximize uptime and operational efficiency.
