Gas power for XGMA excavator

Low emissions are a key feature of the compressed natural gas (CNG) powered crawler excavator on the XGMA stand. Designed for use in areas where exhaust emissions are strictly controlled such as urban construction sites, the 22tonne excavator offers an alternative to conventional equipment running on diesel. Performance is said to be comparable to that of a machine using diesel as fuel but the benefits in reduced emissions will be extremely useful for certain applications.
