Engine equipment
Alternator
A high capacity alternator is available for applications
when many electrical devices have been installed, such
as extra lights. Alternator 80 A does suit the electrical
system load with extra work lamps for machines that
work around the clock.
Block heater
The coolant heater (engine block) are additional engine
starting aids to the air heater during severe cold
weather. The heaters are designed for an external
power supply of 240 V AC. Recommended ambient
temperature to install: below -20°C

Oil bath pre-cleaner
The oil bath pre-cleaner is recommended for machines
that work in dusty and humid environments.
In combination with the standard air cleaner, the oil bath
pre-cleaner provides extra protection against engine
damage.

Electric equipment
Travel alarm
The travel alarm is a safety device that sounds when the
machine travels forward or reverse, to warn by
standards of impending danger. There is a shut-off
switch for long distance travel. In certain markets,
a travel alarm is a legal requirement on excavators.
Rotating beacon
The rotating beacon is a safety device which is mounted
on the cab roof. For transport, it can be easily tilted.
There is a switch in the cab to turn the beacon on or off.
In certain markets, a rotating beacon is a legal
requirement on excavators.

Protection equipment
FOG
The FOG (Falling Object Guard) is recommended for
tough working site applications, such as quarries and
demolition. The cab mounted FOG is approved accord-
ing to ISO 10262 and consists of FOPS and the front
guard. The front guard is tiltable and supported by a
gas strut for easy access to front window.
This installation does not require welding on the
superstructure.
FOPS
A cab mounted FOPS, (Falling Object Protection
Structure), is available for the protection of the operator.
The FOPS is approved according to ISO 3449 and is
easy to install.
The protection structure is bolted to the cab top.
All mounting holes are already installed in the cab.
11
Anti-vandal kit
To prevent broken cab windows, the machine can be
equipped with anti-vandal protection.
The equipment consists of 7 pieces of ABS glass fiber
plate, a locking key and a storage box.
The storage area can be either located between the
tool box and boom foot or on the cab roof (EC140B
and EC210B cab roof only).
12
Exterior equipment
Service walkway
A service walkway is available for the lefthand, cab side
of the EC360B and EC460B.
This service walkway provides improved serviceability
and maintenance access to components on that side of
the machine. The service walkway consists of steel
grates which are 300 mm wide and are mounted to the
left side of the upper frame.
13
Undercarriage equipment
Track shoe
Many different track shoe options are available according to the job site requirements.
15

Hydraulic equipment for rotator and slope bucket
An additional engine driven gear pump and extra valve
block are available for rotator or slope bucket.
This option is called X3 piping. For the control of X3
piping, the joysticks with either 3 or 5 buttons should
be selected (because this option uses electric solenoid
valves).

Hydraulic equipment for Quick fit
This equipment makes it possible to operate a quick fit
easily. The hydraulic quick fit is operated by two locker
switches on the panel. The equipment includes valve
block with solenoid valve, switches and control lines
from the base machine to the end of arm. Pilot pressure
is activated continuously for the closing function.
For the opening function, the pilot pressure and working
pressure are activated.

Other equipment
Removable ounterweight
For EC360B and EC460B, the removable
counterweight makes it easier to remove or install the
counterweight by utilizing a hydraulic cylinder and
linkage system.
26
Quick fit
The Volvo hydraulic quick fit makes it possible to
change attachments quickly and easily without the
operator having to leave the cab. This increases
productivity and makes the machine more versatile.
To change attachments, two switches have to be
activated simultaneously. This minimizes (for safety
reasons) the risk of the bucket being released
inadvertently during work or travel. The quick fit is
equipped with a safety hook. The advantage of this is
the bucket can easily be removed. This increases
visibility and lifting capacity.
The Volvo quick fit has a low weight and low building
height which provides higher breakout forces.
