Overview
The CASE CX210E is the 21-tonne model in CASE's E-series excavators, which are developed in partnership with Sumitomo of Japan. It is a mainstream general-construction machine that competes on value and ease of ownership.
Emissions without the hassle
In Tier 4 Final markets, the CX210E meets emissions rules using an Isuzu engine with cooled EGR and a diesel oxidation catalyst plus SCR, without a diesel particulate filter. That means no regeneration cycles and no DPF cleaning or replacement costs.
Performance and comfort
The hydraulics deliver strong lifting and fast cycle times, and the E-series cab is quieter and roomier than its predecessor. Several power modes let operators balance speed and fuel economy. CASE offers factory-integrated 2D and 3D machine control on its excavators.
Who it suits
Contractors and municipalities who want a strong, well-specified 20-tonne excavator at a lower price than the market leaders, with a local CASE dealer.
Alternatives
Compare with the Hitachi ZX210LC-7, Volvo EC220E and Caterpillar 320.
