Used Hyundai 220H Excavator

Reading: 1250

Here is a detailed introduction to the Hyundai 220H excavator (commonly known as the Hyundai HX220L, a 22‑ton class crawler excavator widely used in heavy construction, earthmoving, and utility work):

Overview

The Hyundai 220H / HX220L is a 22‑tonne hydraulic crawler excavator designed for high productivity, fuel efficiency, and outstanding operator comfort. It represents Hyundai’s latest generation of mid‑size excavators, featuring Tier 4 Final / Stage V compliant engine technology, advanced hydraulic systems, and a robust structure built for demanding job sites. The machine is suitable for trenching, general excavation, demolition, material handling, and road construction.

Engine and Powertrain

Engine Model: Hyundai HE6.7 (in‑house manufactured 6‑cylinder, water‑cooled diesel)
Net Power: 129 kW (173 hp) @ 2,200 rpm
Emission Standards: EPA Tier 4 Final / EU Stage V
Aftertreatment System: Cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (CEGR) + Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) + Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
Fuel Economy Features:
- Auto idle and auto engine shutdown to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption
- ECO gauge and real‑time fuel usage displayed on the monitor
- High‑efficiency combustion and improved torque characteristics for better response

The Hyundai‑designed HE6.7 engine delivers strong low‑end torque and reliable performance while meeting strict emission regulations without sacrificing power.

Hydraulic System

Type: Variable‑displacement axial piston pumps with load‑sensing and closed‑center control
Max. Flow Rate: 2 × 222 L/min (58.6 US gpm each)
Working Pressure: 350 bar (35 MPa)
Advanced Features:
- CAPO (Computer Aided Power Optimization) system constantly adjusts pump output to match engine load, reducing fuel waste and improving control
- Boom and arm regeneration circuits that reuse hydraulic energy, lowering fuel consumption
- Cross‑sensing technology allows smooth multi‑function operation (e.g., boom up + swing + arm in simultaneously)
- Power boost button for temporary extra digging force when needed

The hydraulic system is designed for precision, fast cycle times, and excellent fuel economy, even during heavy‑duty digging.

Operator Cabin

The Hyundai 220H cab is built with a focus on safety, visibility, and comfort:

ROPS/FOPS certified cab for roll‑over and falling object protection
Air‑suspension seat with heating, fully adjustable armrests, and lumbar support
Spacious interior with low noise levels (approx. 71 dB(A) inside) and vibration damping
8‑inch color touchscreen monitor providing machine status, rear‑view camera feed, maintenance alerts, and climate control settings
Automatic climate control and pressurised cab to keep out dust
Excellent all‑round visibility thanks to large glass surfaces, a slim cab pillar design, and a standard rear‑view camera (optional 360° around‑view monitor)
Integrated Bluetooth audio, USB ports, and storage compartments

Operators experience less fatigue and higher productivity even during long shifts.

Technology and Intelligent Features

Hi‑MATE remote management system – enables fleet owners to monitor machine location, hours, fuel consumption, and maintenance intervals via web or mobile app.
Eco Gauge and fuel consumption display – helps the operator drive efficiently.
Auto safety lock and travel alarm – prevent unintended movements.
Mode selection – choose between Power, Standard, and Economy modes to match working conditions.
Boom/Swing priority – automatically assigns hydraulic flow to the function that needs it most.
Machine guidance ready – optional 2D/3D machine control systems for improved accuracy.

Maintenance and Serviceability

Hyundai designed the 220H for easy daily upkeep and longer service intervals:

Ground‑level access to engine oil check, fuel/water separator, remote greasing points, and filters
Wide‑opening side doors and removable belly pans for quick cleaning and inspection
Reversible cooling fan (auto or manual) to clear debris from radiators
Extended service intervals: Engine oil and filter every 500 hours; hydraulic oil every 5,000 hours
Centralised diagnostic connector and easy‑to‑read error codes on the monitor

These features help reduce downtime and overall operating costs.

Safety

Standard rear‑view camera with dedicated display
Slip‑resistant steps and platforms, along with well‑placed handrails
Boom safety lock and hydraulic lockout lever
Overload warning system (optional)
LED work lights for excellent illumination at night
Optional 360° around‑view monitoring (AVM) system for maximum jobsite awareness

Attachment Versatility

The Hyundai 220H can be equipped with a wide range of attachments, including:

Hydraulic breakers (with bi‑directional hydraulic piping)
Shears, grapples, and multi‑processors for demolition and recycling
Tiltrotators and quick couplers
Long‑reach arms (optional configuration)
Clamshell buckets and rippers

The auxiliary hydraulic lines are easily configurable, and the machine’s hydraulic settings can be adjusted through the monitor for each attachment.

Summary

The Hyundai 220H (HX220L) is a versatile and fuel‑efficient 22‑ton excavator that combines Hyundai’s proven engine technology, intelligent hydraulics, and a comfortable operator environment. Its robust build, advanced telematics, and low maintenance requirements make it an excellent choice for contractors seeking high performance and reliability in a mid‑size machine.
