Doosan’s DX300LC-7 gets the Stage 5 treatment

Doosan is revealing its line-up of LC-7 Stage V excavators, including the new DX300LC-7.

The newly designed cab in the DX300LC-7 boosts operator comfort, says the company, as well as increases the ease of machine operation. There is a new touch-enabled gauge panel that provides more information thanks to having a 30% larger screen than the previous model.

New smartpower management can save up to 7% fuel consumption compared to the previous generation machine, according to Doosan.

To meet Stage V engine emission regulations, the DX300LC-7 is powered by a new Doosan DL08 engine, without EGR – exhaust gas recirculation. This minimises the generation of particulates, and uses DOC/DPF+SCR after-treatment technology that does not require maintenance until the machine has operated for 8,000 hours.

The new DX300LC-7 model is also factory-installed with Doosan’s state-of-the-art DoosanConnect wireless fleet monitoring system. The DoosanConnect system offers a web-based fleet management solution which is very useful for monitoring the performance and security of machines and promoting preventative maintenance. It is available as a standard feature on all new Doosan excavators from 14 tonnes, all new Doosan wheel loaders and Doosan articulated dump trucks.
