With the SH220LC-2, Sumitomo offers a model from the Sumitomo Hydraulic Excavator series. The engine delivers 114.1 kW, has 6 cylinders, with a displacement of 6,494.2 cm³. Torque is 539.1 Nm. Rated speed is 2,150 rpm. The unladen weight is 23,700 kg. Ground clearance is 460.2 mm. The tank holds 310 litres. Maximum torque is reached at 1,700 rpm. The pump delivers 424.3 l/min. The hydraulic tank holds 200.2 litres. Working pressure is 343.2 bar. The cooling system holds 27.3 litres. The oil fill is 25.4 litres. The electrical system runs on 24 V. The engine fitted is the A-6BG1T. The Sumitomo Hydraulic Excavator series covers 40 models. Rated output within it ranges from 60 to 397 kW; the SH220LC-2 sits in the lower part of that range with 114.1 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the SH200LC-3 below it with 104.4 kW and the SH225X-3B above it with 114.5 kW. Unladen weight within it ranges from 11,480 to 80,100 kg; here the SH220LC-2 sits in the lower part of that range with 23,700 kg. 62 Sumitomo models across 6 series are on record.

Sumitomo Hydraulic Excavator SH100 to SH870: reading the SH number and the dash generation, 60 to 397 kW, 11.5 to 80.1 t operating weight, the dash level sets the emissions tier

The "Sumitomo Hydraulic Excavator" bucket on SpecCodex covers 40 live-listed models from the Japanese crawler-excavator family. The code follows a clear pattern: "SH" plus a number (100, 120, 130, 160, 200, 220…) names the size class, while a hyphenated digit such as "-2", "-3" or "-5" marks the production generation, referred to by the maker as the "dash" level.

Each new dash generation at Sumitomo lines up with a new emissions tier: older dash levels met EU Stage IIIA or EPA Tier III, while current lines (dash-6/-7) reach EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V with a diesel particulate filter and SCR aftertreatment. Models without a dash digit, such as the plain SH200 in this bucket, are usually older or export-market versions outside that scheme.

The recorded spread: engine output 60 to 397 kW, operating weight 11,480 to 80,100 kg, displacement 2,900 to 15,700 cm³. For a subset of models, 4- to 6-cylinder engines and torque figures of 294 to 539 Nm are also on file.

For a used machine, the dash generation drives the service checklist: newer dash generations with DPF/SCR need their regeneration cycles and AdBlue system checked, while older dash-2/3 machines call for a closer look at the hydraulic pump, valve block, and undercarriage for leaks and wear.

In short: the SH number is the size class, the dash digit is the generation and, indirectly, the emissions tier. Only the nameplate confirms it — the model name alone does not.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
