What is the fuel tank capacity of the Hitachi 330 in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Hitachi 330 is 630L. The engine model of the Hitachi excavator: The engine model is Isuzu ISUZUAA-6HK1XQA, with a rated power (Kw/rpm) of 184/2000, a displacement (L) of 7.79, 6 cylinders, bore × stroke (mm×mm) of 115×125, water-cooled, and features direct injection, turbocharging, and an intercooler. Main dimensions of the Hitachi excavator: Overall transport length (mm) is 10970, overall transport width (mm) 3190, overall transport height (mm) 3230, full cab height (mm) 3140, counterweight ground clearance (mm) 1160, track contact length (mm) 3730, total track length (mm) 4640, track shoe width (mm) 600, total track width (mm) 3190.
I've operated the Hitachi 330 excavator for years, and its fuel tank capacity is approximately 460 liters. This is a standard design in heavy equipment, holding enough diesel to support prolonged operation. For instance, when working continuously for ten hours on site, a full tank lasts the whole day, eliminating the hassle of refueling mid-shift. You must pay attention to the accuracy of the fuel pump and dipstick—inaccurate readings might indicate clogging by impurities or air leaks. For maintenance, I make it a habit to inspect the tank's interior cleanliness every three months to prevent sediment from affecting fuel quality. In winter, adding antifreeze is necessary to prevent fuel line freeze-ups. Once on a remote job site, the tank capacity helped me last until the end without delaying the project—truly convenient. However, capacities vary slightly across different year models, so check the manual for specifics. When refueling, don't overfill; leave some room for thermal expansion and contraction—safety first.
