Cat 320D3 GC ®

Hydraulic Excavator

The Cat® 320D3 GC Hydraulic Excavator delivers reduced fuel consumption that can go as low as 11 liters per
hour, lowered maintenance costs by up to 20%, low owning costs, simpler routine maintenance, increased
performance, and long-term durability.

Built to Last Reduced Fuel Consumption with High Performance

• 6-cylinder mechanical engine for improved reliability • With the increased fuel efficiency, typical fuel consumption in
• Integrated component design for better durability and strength earthmoving applications is between 11 to 13 liters per hour, lower
• Consolidated pilot system for simpler hydraulics than most comparable machines in the market.
• New modified X‐frame structure for longer life and durability • Robust and easy-to-maintain fuel system filtration reduces risk of
failure from contaminated fuel
• Reinforced boom and stick with internal baffle plates for increased
durability • Caterpillar designed and built hydraulic pumps deliver superior
performance
