DX230LCE-7

Electric Power for Demanding Jobs

The DX230LCE-7 is a 26-ton electric crawler excavator designed for medium-scale projects in demanding environments. Its long operating time of up to 9 hours, high-performance hydraulics, and robust undercarriage deliver the same powerful digging, lifting, and loading capability you expect from a diesel machine — without the noise or local emissions.

As an electric machine, it lets you work in low-carbon zones, sensitive natural areas, or urban locations where quiet, clean operation is essential, including at night. With tracks built to handle harsh ground conditions, the DX230LCE-7 is a tough, reliable electric solution that helps you take on more projects while preparing your fleet for the future.

Electric Performance You Can Count On

The DX230LCE-7 is powered by a 120 kW liquid-cooled permanent-magnet motor and a high-performance LFP battery that delivers up to 9 hours of operating time. You get full-size crawler excavator performance — strong digging forces, fast cycles, and excellent controllability — without fuel, loud engine noise, or local exhaust emissions. Robust hydraulics with fine swing and the intelligent floating boom option help you work more smoothly and precisely. Operators experience high productivity and quiet machine, while your business benefits from zero fuel bills and the ability to work in noise- and emission-regulated areas.

Tough Build. Smart Savings.

The DX230LCE-7 and DX250LCE-7 are built around durable structures and simplified electric drivetrains that keep your operating costs under control. Reinforced castings, forged steel pivot points, and a heavy-duty arm and boom are engineered to withstand tough applications. With fewer moving parts than a diesel machine, there is less to service. Daily maintenance becomes simpler: you no longer need to change engine oil or filters, check fuel filters or air pre-cleaners, or manage aftertreatment systems such as AdBlue® and diesel particulate filters. The LFP batteries and electric motors are almost maintenance-free, reducing service time, lowering costs, and easing the load on both your team and your budget.

Fast to Charge, Easy to Operate

The DX230LCE-7 is designed to fit smoothly into your working day. Flexible charging options include AC charging at 380 V with 63 A for around 9 hours or 32 A for about 16 hours, plus DC fast charging in approximately 2.0 hours. You can easily adapt charging to your schedule and infrastructure. Inside, a sophisticated, pressurized ROPS cab, high-quality seat, 360° AVM camera system, and Develon Smart Touch interface provide a safe, comfortable, and intuitive working environment. Operators stay more focused and less fatigued, and the machine becomes easier, safer, and more convenient to operate in every application.

Our crawler excavators use LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery technology, known for its excellent chemical stability. This makes it one of the safest cell technologies available on the market. Operators and fleet managers gain confidence knowing the electric crawler excavators are powered by a battery system designed from the ground up with safety in mind.

LFP Battery: Safety Built into the Cells

Battery packs, acting as a counterweight, and a stable undercarriage give the DX230LCE-7 and DX250LCE-7 excellent balance when working with heavy attachments or on uneven terrain. Extremely robust, all-welded structures are designed to limit stress throughout the machine. The result is an electric crawler excavator that feels confident and predictable, helping operators work safely and efficiently in real-world conditions.

Standard rear and side cameras, large side mirrors, and powerful LED work lights provide a clear view of the surroundings in a wide range of conditions. For even greater awareness, an optional 360° AVM system with ultrasonic detection helps operators monitor obstacles and people around the machine. Better visibility means safer operation—especially in crowded or busy jobsites.

A sophisticated, pressurized ROPS cab is ISO-certified to help protect the operator in demanding conditions. Anti-slip steps and platforms, together with well-placed guard rails on the upper structure, make entering, exiting, and servicing the machine safer and more secure. From first step to full shift, the DX230LCE-7 and DX250LCE-7 are designed to keep you protected.

A 120 kW liquid-cooled permanent-magnet motor gives our electric crawler excavators the same performance as their diesel counterparts. You get powerful, responsive operation for digging, lifting, and running attachments—paired with zero local emissions, no fuel bills, and significantly reduced noise levels. It’s a simple way to transform the way you work without sacrificing productivity.

The DX230LCE-7 uses an LFP battery that delivers up to 9 hours of operating time. Charging is easy to fit into your schedule: use AC 380 V at 63 A for around 9 hours or 32 A for about 16 hours, or choose DC fast charging to reach full charge in roughly 2 hours. With flexible options, you won’t be held back by charging infrastructure or shift patterns.

Attachment mode with a priority valve on the attachment lines delivers higher working efficiency when moving the arm and operating the tool at the same time. A dedicated tiltrotator mode provides more precision and less back pressure when high flow is required. With the same attachment compatibility as equivalent diesel machines, our electric crawler excavators give you the flexibility to tackle a wide variety of jobs with one platform.

Attachment Versatility, Electric Efficiency

The intelligent floating boom lets the boom move freely up or down, depending on the task. In hydraulic breaker mode, the boom lowers under its own weight, reducing shock and vibration and extending breaker life. In full float mode, the boom follows the ground while dragging the bucket. The fine swing function further reduces shaking of lifted objects when starting or stopping swing, improving safety for nearby workers and protecting the load.

With fewer moving parts than a traditional diesel excavator, daily maintenance is simpler and faster. There is no engine oil to change, no fuel or engine oil filters to replace, and no air pre-cleaners to manage. LFP batteries and electric motors are almost maintenance-free, and there is no aftertreatment system — no AdBlue®, no diesel particulate filter, and no associated servicing. All of this reduces downtime, lowers maintenance and servicing costs, and cuts stress for your team and your budget.

Strengthened boom and arm structures are tested to offer optimal load distribution throughout the boom. Reinforced castings, forged steel pivot points, and a heavy-duty arm and boom are built to withstand tough applications. These robust components help reduce the risk of structural repairs and keep your electric crawler excavators earning for longer.

Large guard rails and spacious platforms give you easy access to the upper structure for inspections and service work. This practical design speeds up daily checks and scheduled maintenance, keeps the machines productive, and reduces the time and effort needed to keep your electric fleet in top condition.

The LFP battery packs are engineered for long service life, with a chemistry known for its stable performance over many charge cycles. Its robust design helps maintain capacity, supporting consistent runtime and dependable productivity throughout the life of these machines.
