Hitachi KH150-3

The Hitachi KH150-3 is a versatile 40-ton crawler crane designed for efficient and precise lifting operations across a variety of job sites. With a maximum lifting capacity of 40,000 kg (88,200 lb) at a 3.7 m (12’2″) working radius, the KH150-3 is built to handle demanding construction tasks. The crane’s boom length starts at 10 m (32’10”), but can be extended up to 46 m (150’11”) for added flexibility, while the optional jib attachment increases the total length to 55.25 m (181’3″), providing excellent reach for tall structures or deep excavations.

The machine operates on a HINO H06C-T diesel engine, rated at 110 kW (150 PS) at 2,000 rpm, delivering consistent power to support various crane operations, including hoisting, swinging, and traveling. The crane features a swing speed of 0–3.3 rpm, allowing for smooth, controlled movements, while its travel speed ranges between 0–1.5 km/h (0–0.93 mph), ensuring reliable mobility on the job site.

With a gradeability of 22° (40%), the KH150-3 is well-suited for working on uneven terrains and slopes. Its ground pressure of 0.58 bar (8.41 psi) helps in minimizing impact on soft or delicate surfaces during operation. The machine’s operating weight comes in at approximately 41,000 kg (90,400 lb) when fitted with the basic boom, including a 40,000 kg (88,200 lb) hook and a 13,200 kg (29,100 lb) counterweight, offering stability and lifting power.

The Hitachi KH150-3 combines robust performance, flexibility, and precision, making it an excellent choice for medium-duty crane operations in construction, infrastructure development, and heavy-lifting projects.
