What the ZX200 is used for

The ZX200 class is the reference machine for civil engineering and infrastructure work: deep sewer and watermain trenches, building foundations, mass excavation, riprap placement and truck loading. Its 400 L fuel tank runs long shifts, and its power boost mode pushes hydraulic pressure to 5,270 psi when the bucket meets hard ground.

Frequently asked questions — Hitachi ZX200

How much does a Hitachi ZX200 weigh?

The Hitachi ZAXIS 200-3 weighs 47,015 lb (21,326 kg) with full fuel, operator, 0.91 m3 heavy-duty bucket, 2.91 m arm and 4,750 kg counterweight. It's a 20-ton class excavator: hauling it requires a lowboy and the corresponding permits.

What is the dig depth of the ZX200?

The ZX200-3 digs down to 20 ft 3 in (6.18 m) with the standard arm and down to 21 ft 11 in (6.68 m) with the long arm. Its maximum cutting height reaches 31 ft 9 in (9.67 m) and its dump height 22 ft 5 in (6.83 m), enough to load the tallest boxes.

What engine powers the Hitachi ZX200-3?

The ZX200-3 runs an EPA Tier 3 certified Isuzu AH-4HK1: 4 cylinders, 5.193 L, turbocharged with air-to-air charge cooling, producing 159 hp (118 kW) at 2,000 rpm. The 106 gal (400 L) fuel tank supports long days without refueling.

What's the difference between the ZX200-3 and the ZX200LC-3?

LC stands for Long Crawler: the ZX200LC-3 has a longer undercarriage (8 track rollers per side versus 7, 49 shoes versus 46), which increases stability and over-side lift capacity. Digging performance and engine are identical; the LC is preferred for lifting work and soft ground.

Does Benco sell and service Hitachi excavators?

Yes. Benco is a Hitachi dealer with parts and service on site in Richelieu, plus new and used excavator sales. For a one-off jobsite need, rental with or without an operator is also available, with delivery across the South Shore and Montérégie.
