Automatic Engine Speed Control

Automatic engine speed control is activated during no-load or light-load conditions which reduces engine speed to minimize fuel consumption.

Air Cleaner

Radial seal air filters feature a double-layered filter core for more efficient filtration and is located in a ocmpartment behind the cab. A warning is displayed on the monitor when dust accumulates above a preset level.

Filtration System

The C7.1 engine feautres an improved filtration system to ensure good reliability to fuel injection system components. Intervals have been extended and the number of filters reduced to maximize your profit potential.

Hydraulics

Efficient hydraulic system with low effort joysticks provides precise control regardless of your application.

Hydraulic System

Hydraulic system pressure is 35000 kPa (5,076 psi) with 202 L/min (53.36 gal/min) flow from each of the two hydraulic pumps for increased digging performance and producitivity.

Pilot System

An independent pilot pump enables smooth precise control for the front linkage, swing and travel operations.

Component Layout

The 320D/D L Series 2 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.

Hydraulic Cross-Sensing System

The hydraulic cross-sensing system utilizes each of to hydraulic pumps to 100 percent of engine power under all operating conditions. This improves productivity with faster implement speeds and quicker, stronger pivot turns.

Auxiliary Hydraulic Valve

Control circuits are available as attachments to improve versatility. They allow operaion of high- and medium-pressure tools such as shears, grapples, hammers, pulverizers, multi-processors and vibratory plate compactors.

Boom and Stick Regeneration Circuit

Boom and stick regeneration circuits save energy during boom-down and stick-in operation which increases efficiency, reduces cycle times and pressure loss for higher productivity, lower operating costs, and increased fuel efficiency.

Hydraulic Cylinder Snubbers

Snubbers are located at the rod-end of the boom cylinders and both ends of the stick cylinders to cushion shocks while reducing sound levels and extending component life.

Hydraulic Activation Control Lever

With the hydraulic activation lever in the natural position all print linkage, swing and travel functions are isolated.

Undercarriage and Structures

Strong and durable, all you expect from Cat excavators.

Carbody Design and Track Roller Frames

The X-shaped, box-section carbody provides excellent resistance to torsional bending. Robot-welded track roller frames are press-formed, pentagonal units to deliver exceptional strength and service life.

Main Frame

The upper frame is designed using inverse “T” shape beams made out of high-tensile-strength steel providing excellent durability whatever your application. The 320D/D L Series 2 incorporates a one-piece upper frame table which improves strength and reliabiltiy. Both the boom tower and the main frame are constructed of solid plates and the areas adjacent to the boom foot are reinforced, adding to overall durability

Lower Structure

The 320D/D L Series 2 carbody features a box section “X” structure which is designed with the carbody welded close to the ends of the track roller frame. As a result, overall rigidity is high and resistance to torsional rigidity between the track roller frames and the carbody is also high. The standard undercarriage is well suited for applications that require frequent repositioning of the machine, restricted work space, or uneven rocky terrain. The long (L) undercarraige maximizes stability and lift capacity. This long, wide and sturdy undercarriage offers a very stable work platform.

Rollers and Idlers

Sealed and lubricated track rollers, carrier rollers and idlers provide excellent service life to keep your machine in the field and working longer.

Undercarriage

The 320D/D L Series 2 uses a grease-lubricated type track link with grease being sealed between the pin and the bushing. These seals deliver longer wear life by preventing dirt and debris from entering into the space between the pin and the bushing. The master link incorporates a split type pin which helps make routine service and maintenance quick and easy.

Front Linkage

Reliable, durable and versatile to meet all your application needs.

Cat front linkages are designed for maximum versality, productivity and high efficiency whatever the application.

Heavy Duty Front Linkage

The 5.7 m (18’8″) heavy duty (HD) reach boom is reinforced to be used in the severest applications abd provide maximum digging capability. They are made of high-tensile-strength steel using a large box-section design with interior baffle plates and an additional bottom guard for long life and durability. The HD reach boom has two stick options available to meet all your application requirements. The 2.9 m (9’6″) heavy duty (HD) stick is most versatile option and very good for for truck loading and trenching applications where you need additional working range. The 2.5 m(8’2″) heavey duty (HD) stick is ideally suited to applications requiring larger bucket sizes. it maximizes digging forces and enables you to get your jobs completed faster.

Mass Boom Front Linkage

The mass excavation (ME) front linkage is designed to maximize machine performance through superior digging forces and a larger bucket capacity. The 5.2 m(17’1″) mass excavation boom is reinforced with a geometry designed to maximize machine productivity. It also incorporates a large cross-section and internal baffle plates for long life and durability. the 2.4 m (7’11”) mass excavation stick was designed mainly for large earth moving and is made of high-tensile-strength steel in a box-section to make it strong and durable.

Service and Maintenance
