Improve visibility to simplify and secure maintenance work with optional inspection lighting. Enhance safety on the construction site with optional orientation alarm. Available features may vary by region. For more information on available offers in your region, please contact your local Cat dealer. Version number: 07F
Move More Materials While Consuming Less Fuel
The C7.1 Engine can run on biodiesel up to B20 and complies with the following emissions standards: Chinese Stage III for non-road engines, equivalent to the American EPA Tier 3/European Stage IIIA standard. Consumes up to 25% less fuel than the 320D2 model, allowing you to continue moving and remain productive on the job site. The advanced hydraulic circuit offers the optimal balance of power and efficiency while giving you the necessary control to meet precise excavation needs. The priority valve directs hydraulic pressure and flow where you want it for accelerated light to moderate load cycle times. Adapt the hydraulic excavator to the task with two power modes; Smart mode automatically adjusts engine and hydraulic power to excavation conditions. Auxiliary hydraulic options ensure the versatility required to use a wide range of Cat equipment. Lose less energy and reduce fuel consumption with the positive flow control pump. The pump flow automatically adjusts based on valve priority. Advansys™ bucket tips improve penetration and cycle times. They can be quickly replaced using a simple wheel nut wrench, without the need for a hammer or special tool, improving safety and increasing productive time. Available only on HD buckets. The standard Product Link™ functionality automatically and accurately collects data from your equipment, regardless of type or brand. Information such as location, hours, energy efficiency, productivity, idle time, maintenance alerts, diagnostic codes, and machine status can be accessed online through web and mobile applications.
Reliability You Can Count On
Work up to 3,000 m (9,840 ft) above sea level without derating. Do not let temperature be an obstacle to work. The 323 GC model offers a high ambient temperature capacity of 52 °C (125 °F) and a cold start capacity of -18 °C (0 °F). The auto preheating accelerates the reheating of hydraulic oil in cold weather and helps extend the life of components. Two levels of fuel filtration protect the engine from dirty diesel fuel. The grease retained between the axes and chain bushings reduces noise and prevents debris from entering to extend the life of the undercarriage. The chain guard keeps the hydraulic excavator chain aligned during movement and work on slopes. The inclined carrier frame prevents mud and debris buildup, reducing the risk of chain damage.
Designed for Drivers
The cabin is equipped with a wide adjustable seat to accommodate drivers of all sizes. Effortlessly maneuver the hydraulic shovel using easily accessible controls located in front of you. The standard automatic air conditioning keeps you at the ideal temperature throughout the day. Enjoy more comfort in the cabin during work with a low level of vibrations achieved through advanced viscous mounting brackets. Store all your equipment inside the cabin with large storage spaces behind and under the seat, and in the consoles. A cup holder, document holder, bottle holder, and coat hook are also provided. Use the USB ports and Bluetooth® technology to connect your personal devices.
Easy To Use
Start the engine using the push button, a Bluetooth keychain, or the unique driver ID function. Program the desired power mode and manipulator preferences using the user ID; the hydraulic excavator will memorize your settings and reapply them for all your subsequent jobs. Navigate quickly on the standard 203 mm (8 in) high-resolution touchscreen monitor or using the control knob. Protect your hammer from overheating and rapid wear. The hammer's automatic shutdown function warns you after 15 seconds of continuous priming, then automatically stops the hammer after 30 seconds, helping to increase the tool's service life. Not sure how a function works or how to maintain the hydraulic excavator? Make sure to always have the driver's manual at your fingertips on the touchscreen monitor. Find the tool you need, even if it's under bushes or debris. Use your mobile phone to search for any Cat resource tracking-equipped work tool up to a distance of 60 m (200 ft).
Returning Home, Safe and Sound, Every Day
Access 100% of daily ground-level maintenance points (there is no need for you to climb on the hydraulic shovel). Secure your hydraulic shovel with the user ID. Use your PIN code on the monitor to activate the start function via a push button. The standard ROPS (Rollover Protective Structure) cabin complies with ISO 12117-2:2008. Benefit from excellent visibility in the trench, in every orientation, and behind you with smaller pillars, larger windows, and a flat engine hood. A rear vision camera is included as standard, and a right side view mirror is available. The new right-side maintenance platform allows easy, safe, and quick access to the upper maintenance platform; its steps are covered with a non-slip perforated plate to prevent slipping. The standard hydraulic safety lever inhibits all hydraulic and translation functions when in the lowered position. When activated, the ground-level stop switch cuts off the engine fuel supply and stops the machine. Simplify and secure maintenance work with optional inspection lighting. Simply activating a switch allows you to illuminate the engine compartments, pump, battery, and radiator for better visibility. Improve safety on the construction site. Add an orientation alarm to warn colleagues when transitioning from trenching to backfilling and vice versa.
