Volvo ECR25 electric excavator: a groundbreaking addition to Volvo CE’s lineup that promises to revolutionise landscaping.
As urbanisation accelerates, so does the need for machinery that can access challenging areas, operate with minimal disruption, and uphold stringent environmental standards. Enter the Volvo ECR25 electric excavator, a groundbreaking addition to Volvo CE’s lineup that promises to revolutionise landscaping.
With an operating weight ranging from 2680kg to 2780kg and a compact design, the Volvo ECR25 electric excavator is ideally suited for various applications, from utilities and basement groundworks to demolition. Its reduced-swing configuration enables it to fit into tight areas, making it particularly valuable for tasks in densely populated urban environments where space is limited. Moreover, the electric power source of the ECR25 offers significant advantages, especially in indoor or underground settings where traditional diesel-powered machines may not be viable due to emissions and ventilation concerns. This makes the ECR25 a versatile and environmentally friendly solution for a wide range of projects. The ECR25 boasts quick reactions and high torque, providing operators with precise digging capabilities. This electric powerhouse offers unparalleled accuracy and efficiency in excavation tasks compared to traditional diesel engines.
The ECR25 electric battery
The Volvo ECR25 electric excavator, featuring state-of-the-art battery technology, boasts many impressive features. Powered by a 48V lithium-ion battery, the ECR25 electric offers reduced maintenance, minimising downtime and increasing efficiency on the job site.
With two to four hours of runtime, depending on the application, this excavator ensures sustained productivity throughout the workday and is designed to deliver up to 2000 complete charge cycles; the battery ensures long-term reliability and performance, making it a standout choice for sustainable construction projects.
The anti-theft fixed battery also provides security and peace of mind, safeguarding the investment in this cutting-edge equipment.
Adding to its appeal is the intelligent digital interface. Equipped with a state-of-the-art display, the machine provides operators with comprehensive information at their fingertips. From charge levels to instant power feedback, the intuitive interface ensures seamless operation and enhanced productivity on the job site.
Charging solutions for the Volvo ECR25
The Volvo ECR25 electric excavator offers convenience and efficiency. With its standard Electric Vehicle charging protocol, operators can access multiple charging options, enabling the excavator to reach up to 80 per cent charge in less than one hour.
Moreover, the Electric Machines Management Application allows users to monitor charging status, battery level, and location, ensuring optimal utilisation and maintenance of the machine.
All Volvo CE’s zero-emission machines in Australia have charging solutions, allowing quick and off-board solutions to allow a complete charge in around one hour, enabling operators to plan their activities effectively. Customers can collaborate with CJD Equipment to calculate the expected operating time and provide the optimum charging solution tailored to their needs.
Inside the ECR25 Electric
The ECR25 Electric is designed with operator comfort and safety in mind. Volvo has incorporated industry-leading ergonomics, accessibility, and visibility into the cab, providing operators with a comfortable and intuitive working environment. Reducing noise, vibration, and heat levels enhances productivity and reduces operator fatigue, while the absence of exhaust emissions creates a cleaner and healthier workspace.
The ECR25’s ability to operate silently makes it ideal for work in noise-sensitive areas such as residential neighbourhoods and commercial districts.
At the operator’s position, the low sound pressure level of 74dB ensures minimal disturbance to nearby residences, allowing landscaping projects to proceed smoothly even during night hours. Additionally, eliminating fuel handling sets the ECR25 apart from its diesel counterpart. By simply connecting to the power grid, operators can enjoy a clean and safe working environment without the hassle of fuel management. The absence of hot exhaust fumes enables operators to work near delicate surroundings such as hedges and trees without the risk of damage or pollution.
Along with the support from CJD Equipment, there’s also an abundance of available resources online to support new owners and operators. From detailed instructions on charging, starting, and parking the machine to access to the operator’s manual and marketing materials, these resources ensure comprehensive support for operators.
