FOLLOWING its European debut in the Netherlands earlier this year, SANY has announced the sale of its first medium-sized electric excavator in the UK.

SANY’s 23-tonne SY215E has been sold to Explore Plant and Transport Solutions, a supplier of equipment and services to the construction industry.

With an operating weight of 23,200kg, the model boasts a rated power of 150kW. It has a maximum digging height of 9,600mm, a maximum digging depth of 6,255mm, and is available with a range of tracks from 600mm to 800mm. SANY said a Kawasaki main pump and valve block provides the precision electro-hydraulic controls to ‘really maximise on productivity’.

The SANY SY215E has been tailored for the European market, featuring the latest generation cab including a 10” HD touchscreen, LED lighting, improved air suspension seat, enhanced air ventilation, intelligent fault self-diagnosis, and a low noise working environment.

With a rated battery capacity of 422 kWh, the SY215E has a battery life of 6-8 hours. The CCS2 charging option achieves a full charge in just 90 minutes.

Leigh Harris, business development director for SANY UK, said, “We are incredibly proud to introduce SANY’s first 23-tonne electric excavator, the SY215E to the UK market, which highlights the growing demand for eco-friendly heavy machinery in our construction industry. Explore Plant and Transport Solutions is also the perfect partner for this venture, as like SANY they continue to invest in greener and more sustainable plant solutions to help their clients reduce their emissions and work towards zero carbon sites.”

Explore Plant and Transport Solutions took delivery of the machine earlier this month. Operations director Warren Wilkinson said, “We are excited to be able to bring SANY’s first 23-tonne electric excavator to the UK market”.
