Reliable 30-ton class Used Volvo EC300 Excavator with Volvo D8J engine, 189 kW output and 0.52–2.69 m³ buckets. Available from Shanghai; delivery in 15–20 days. Ideal for heavy digging, lifting and site work. The following overview explains the capabilities, design intentions and practical value of this used Volvo EC300 excavator. Built around Volvo’s proven D8J engine and advanced hydraulics, the machine balances digging power, operator comfort and serviceability to deliver dependable performance on medium to large civil and infrastructure projects. The EC300’s 189 kW gross power output and Volvo D8J engine provide consistent torque at 1,400 rpm, ensuring effective bucket penetration and cycle times across a variety of soils. The machine’s breakout and tear-out forces (164–179 kN and 158–172 kN respectively) offer substantial capability when loading, breaking ground or handling heavy attachments. With a maximum digging depth of 6,845 mm and a reach of 10,185 mm, this excavator covers a broad operational envelope suitable for trenching, foundation excavation and bulk earthmoving. Volvo has engineered this platform with longevity in mind. Structural elements such as a wrapped-around counterweight and an X-shaped undercarriage improve impact protection and stability under load. The heavy-duty arm and reinforced chassis components reduce stress concentrations in demanding applications, translating to increased uptime and a better residual value for owners and fleet operators.
