The deconstruction of buildings, bridges and other structures is tough work. Winning at demolition demands extreme-duty equipment and performance attachments.
Primary demolition is all about reach, power and control. Volvo’s line of Ultra High Reach (HR) Excavators have booms from 21-32 meters, demolition guarding, high-visibility cabs and smooth, confident hydraulics. Equipped with attachments from two to 3.5 tons, they cut demolition challenges down to size.
With their innovative design, enabling an easy change from Ultra High Reach boom and arm to a standard excavator configuration or a straight boom, these machines will stay busy even when you don’t have high-reach projects.
Volvo combines power and performance with altitude in its EC700B Ultra High Reach (HR) excavator. With robust hydraulics, outstanding stability and the flexibility to work with various attachments, this machine is a perfect match for high reach applications and beyond.
Key features include:
- World-class 424 hp (316 kW) Volvo Tier 3/Stage IIIA compliant engine with V-ACT (Volvo Advanced Combustion Technology) offering durability and industry-leading fuel efficiency
- 32 m High Reach Boom and optimum hydraulic capacity and flow to power high-reach attachments such as pulverizers, severe-duty grapples, crushers, hammers and shears
- Excellent stability and safety thanks to a long undercarriage, extra modular counterweight, boom and arm holding valves, optional slew-reduction control, and a Total Moment Indicator that warns the operator if the machine approaches the maximum safe working load
- Easy and quick change from demolition configuration to straight or regular boom thanks to the innovative Volvo modular joint system. An additional digging boom and arm come as standard for maximum versatility and uptime
- The standard, hydraulically tilting cabin tilts up to 30 degrees to enhance visibility and reduce operator fatigue and neck strain on high-reach jobs
- Optional, hydraulically variable undercarriage width for easier transport and for optimal stability
