Takeuchi’s largest new excavator
Takeuchi-US has launched the TB2150 hydraulic excavator, its largest and most capable unit.
Completely redesigned from the ground up, the TB2150 replaces the Takeuchi TB1140 Series 2 excavator.
At 34,480 pounds, the machine delivers greater functionality, performance, comfort, and serviceability than the previous TB1140 SERIES 2 model. The TB2150 offers a maximum digging depth of 18 feet 0 inches, maximum dump height of 20 feet 4.9 inches, maximum reach of 28 feet 8.9 inches and maximum bucket breakout force of 22,190 pounds.
Powered by a Deutz TCD 3.6 liter turbocharged diesel engine that is U.S. EPA Final Tier 4 emission compliant, the TB2150 produces 114 hp., a 10 percent increase over the previous version. It also delivers 339 ft.-lbs of torque, a 19 percent increase. The engine utilizes a DOC+SCR diesel exhaust after-treatment system that requires the use of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF).
The operator’s station has been completely revamped with an automotive-style interior that is operator friendly. A spacious cabin features a heated-deluxe-high-back-air-suspension-seat, and the new color multi-information display keeps the operator informed of machine performance. In addition, the excavator includes boom and arm holding valves, an overload alarm, and a new rear-view camera to view objects behind the machine on the color monitor.
Serviceability and uptime have been improved by simplifying access to key maintenance. This includes a nearly 5 percent increase in fuel tank capacity and the engine does not have a diesel particulate filter (DPF) to maintain. In addition, the machine comes standard with Takeuchi’s new telematics system, Takeuchi Fleet Management.
“The new TB2150 represents Takeuchi’s commitment to continuous product improvement so we can provide the latest in technology and performance to our customers,” said David Caldwell, national product manager at Takeuchi-US. “The TB2150 is more capable, comfortable and spacious than its predecessor, and our customers will find it to be an exceptional value and upgrade.”
The TB2150 excavator is now available. For more information on the TB2150 or on Takeuchi track loaders, wheel loaders, excavators, skid steers or Takeuchi Fleet Management, visit www.takeuchi-us.com.
