Powertrain and Engine System
The SY245H is powered by a Deutz engine, delivering 150 kW at 2100 rpm. Deutz, with German engineering roots dating back to 1864, is recognized globally for durability and fuel efficiency. The integration of turbocharging and optimized combustion provides a balance of torque, fuel economy, and compliance with China’s Stage IV emission regulations. For operators, this means reduced fuel consumption—up to 10% lower compared to older Stage IIIB machines—while still offering high breakout force.
Performance Characteristics

• Ground Pressure: 52.5 KPa
  
• Swing Speed: 10 rpm
  
• Gradeability: 70%
  
• Bucket Digging Force: 175 kN (up to 187 kN in power mode)
  
• Arm Digging Force: 120 kN (up to 129 kN)
  
• Travel Speed: 5.8 / 3.7 km/h
  

These performance numbers allow the SY245H to handle both earthmoving and heavy rock work. The high gradeability ensures that even steep construction sites or mining operations remain accessible. A real-world example was reported in Sichuan where SY245H units successfully worked in mountainous terrain for hydropower projects, withstanding both rocky conditions and extended operational hours.
Dimensions and Structure

• Transport Length: 10,290 mm
  
• Width: 3,190 mm
  
• Height: 3,255 mm
  
• Minimum Ground Clearance: 470 mm
  
• Front Swing Radius: 3,800 mm
  
• Tail Swing Radius: 3,105 mm
  
• Track Length: 4,445 mm
  
• Track Gauge: 2,590 mm
  
• Track Shoe Width: 600 mm
  
• Track Ground Contact Length: 3,640 mm
  
• Maximum Height at Minimum Swing Radius: 8,016 mm
  

These proportions reflect SANY’s philosophy of balancing stability with mobility. A wide track gauge and long ground contact area distribute weight effectively, reducing ground pressure and improving stability when lifting or digging.
Operating Range

• Maximum Digging Radius: 10,225 mm
  
• Maximum Digging Depth: 6,705 mm
  
• Maximum Digging Height: 9,745 mm
  
• Maximum Dumping Height: 6,715 mm
  
• Maximum Vertical Digging Depth: 5,675 mm
  

The wide operating range ensures versatility. Contractors can use the SY245H for road construction, mining, and municipal projects. Its bucket capacity of 1.4 m³ means higher cycle efficiency, ideal for large-scale earthmoving.
Development and Market Significance
SANY, founded in 1989, has grown to become one of the world’s top three construction machinery manufacturers. By 2019, SANY sold over 100,000 excavators globally, overtaking established brands like Caterpillar in several markets. The SY245H is part of SANY’s push into the 25-ton segment, a category popular in Asia and Africa for infrastructure projects. The adoption of Stage IV technology signaled SANY’s commitment to greener, more efficient machinery while still retaining affordability compared to Western brands.
Real-World Insights and Anecdotes
Operators often praise the SY245H for its fuel savings. In one story from Henan province, a contractor claimed fuel expenses were reduced by nearly 15% per month compared to his older imported excavator. Another case in the Middle East highlighted SANY’s growing reputation, where machines were deployed for oilfield construction projects in desert environments, withstanding both high heat and long shifts without major breakdowns.
Practical Recommendations

• Use genuine filters and lubricants to extend engine life beyond 15,000 operating hours.
  
• Regularly check track tension to avoid accelerated wear on the undercarriage.
  
• When working in high-altitude regions like Tibet, monitor turbocharger performance to prevent power loss.
  
• For contractors working on soft soil, consider wider track shoes to reduce ground pressure.
