History and service record of 328D LCR and 330D L

  • Tail swing of the 328D LCR. Caterpillar's Specalog for the 328D LCR gives a tail swing radius of 1,900 mm, against 3,090 mm for the standard 329E L, and a minimum front swing radius of 3,412 mm, against 4,180 mm, which is how it works close to walls and traffic. Cat 328D LCR hydraulic excavator Specalog AEHQ6788, Caterpillar.
  • Boom and undercarriage. The 328D LCR's boom is moved toward the centre of the machine for more lift capacity over the front than a standard 329E L, and it borrows the undercarriage of the 336D L, with two extra track links, as a stable platform. Cat 328D LCR hydraulic excavator Specalog AEHQ6788, Caterpillar.
  • Engine and weight. The Specalog lists net power of 152 kW (204 hp) from a Cat C7 with ACERT Technology meeting U.S. EPA Tier 3, and a weight range from 33,270 kg (73,350 lb) to 39,845 kg (87,850 lb) depending on configuration. Cat 328D LCR hydraulic excavator Specalog AEHQ6788, Caterpillar.
  • 330D hydraulics thread. Owners on Heavy Equipment Forums described a 330D that one day just started slowing down; the poster could not test a suspected switch because the local Cat dealer and several technicians could not say where it is on the machine. Cat 330D slow hydraulics, Heavy Equipment Forums.
  • 330D L hydraulic power modes. Caterpillar's 330D L and 330D LN specalog lists 200 kW (270 hp) net from the C9 ACERT engine, 35,300 to 37,500 kg operating weight, 8,090 mm maximum digging depth and 11,830 mm reach at ground level, with an Economy Mode, Power Management and a one-push Heavy Lift Mode. 330D L and 330D LN Hydraulic Excavators specalog, Caterpillar.
  • Booms, sticks and greased tracks. Three boom types and six sticks are offered on the 330D, which comes standard with grease-lubricated tracks. 330D L and 330D LN Hydraulic Excavators specalog, Caterpillar.
  • Filters and a reversing fan. The specalog says the hydraulic fan has variable speed control with an optional reversing fan that can eject debris on demand or for a programmed time, a double-layered air filter core sits behind the cab with a dust warning on the monitor, and a filtration option stretches hydraulic filter service from 2,000 to 5,000 hours. 330D L and 330D LN Hydraulic Excavators specalog, Caterpillar.
  • Color monitor in twenty languages. The operator station has a full-color graphical monitor that displays machine information in twenty languages. 330D L and 330D LN Hydraulic Excavators specalog, Caterpillar.
