Used Doosan DX225LCA Crawler Excavator
Product Information
The Used Doosan DX225LCA Excavator is a medium-size crawler excavator designed for demanding digging, loading, trenching and general construction work. The machine shown in the photos is clearly marked DX225LCA and features a steel crawler undercarriage, enclosed operator cab and protective cab guarding.
With an operating weight of about 21.5 tons, the DX225LCA offers a useful balance between digging power, stability and transport size. It is suitable for contractors, equipment dealers, rental fleets, mining support companies and infrastructure businesses that require a proven excavator in the 20–22 ton class.
Published DX225LCA specifications list a standard operating weight of approximately 21,500 kg and an SAE bucket capacity range of about 0.81–1.17 m³, depending on the boom, arm and bucket configuration.
Built for Productive Excavation Work
The DX225LCA was developed as a successor to the Doosan Solar 225LC platform. It combines a conventional heavy-duty crawler structure with electronic hydraulic control.
Its size makes it suitable for projects that demand more breakout force and reach than compact excavators can provide. At the same time, it remains versatile enough for road construction, foundation digging, utility work and material handling.
The wide crawler base helps distribute machine weight across the ground. Therefore, the excavator can maintain stable working performance when digging or lifting on prepared construction surfaces.
For B2B buyers, this class of excavator is often suitable for continuous fleet use across multiple project types.
Doosan DB58TIS Diesel Engine
A key feature of the DX225LCA is its Doosan DB58TIS diesel engine.
Reference documentation lists a gross engine output of 116 kW / 155 HP at 1,900 rpm and net output of approximately 110 kW / 148 HP at 1,900 rpm. Maximum torque is listed at around 603 Nm at 1,400 rpm.
The six-cylinder engine has a displacement of approximately 5.785 liters. Combined with the excavator's hydraulic system, it provides the power required for digging, loading and repeated boom movements.
For a used unit, buyers should confirm the actual engine model, serial number, working hours and service condition before purchase.
Hydraulic System for Smooth Multi-Function Operation
The DX225LCA uses Doosan's electronically controlled hydraulic system to coordinate engine output and hydraulic demand.
This design supports simultaneous machine movements such as boom lifting, arm movement, bucket operation and upper-structure swing. As a result, experienced operators can carry out repetitive excavation cycles with smooth control.
Published specifications list a swing speed of approximately 11 rpm and two travel speeds of about 5.5 km/h and 3.0 km/h for the original DX225LCA configuration.
A one-touch power boost system was also included in published DX225LCA equipment specifications, helping provide additional hydraulic force when required.

Stable Steel Crawler Undercarriage
The steel track system gives the used DX225LCA a stable platform for excavation.
A standard 600 mm track shoe width is listed in reference specifications. The broad track footprint helps distribute weight while maintaining traction on gravel, soil and construction terrain.
When evaluating a used excavator, buyers should inspect the complete undercarriage, including track shoes, links, rollers, idlers and sprockets. Track tension and uneven wear should also be checked.
Because undercarriage components represent an important part of long-term maintenance cost, detailed photographs or inspection videos can help overseas buyers evaluate the machine before shipment.
Protective Cab for Demanding Job Sites
The photographed machine is equipped with substantial front window guarding and an overhead protective structure. These features can help protect the cab in demanding construction environments.
The DX225LCA cab itself was designed with wide windows, an adjustable operator seat and centralized controls. Published equipment information also lists air conditioning, heating and an LCD monitor among the original cab features.
However, guards and other accessories can be unit-specific. Buyers should therefore confirm which components are included with the machine being quoted.
Suitable for Multiple Construction Applications
The used Doosan DX225LCA can serve a wide range of projects, including:
- Foundation and basement excavation
- Road and bridge construction
- Pipeline and drainage trenching
- Quarry and aggregate handling
- General earthmoving
- Site preparation
- Municipal infrastructure
- Land development
- Loading loose materials
- Building demolition support
Compatible attachments may include digging buckets, grading buckets, hydraulic breakers, grapples, pulverizers and quick couplers. Attachment compatibility should always be confirmed according to hydraulic flow, pressure and mounting dimensions.
Used Excavator Inspection for B2B Buyers
Every used machine has a different operating history. Therefore, the individual unit should be evaluated rather than relying only on the original factory specification.
Important inspection points include the engine, hydraulic pumps, cylinders, control valve, swing motor, travel motors, final drives, boom, arm, bucket linkage and undercarriage.
Buyers should also confirm operating hours, manufacture year, serial number and current attachment configuration.
For international equipment dealers and contractors, detailed machine photos, operating videos and loading information can make procurement easier and reduce uncertainty before shipment.
Why Consider a Used DX225LCA?
A used DX225LCA provides the working size and hydraulic capability expected from a conventional 22-ton crawler excavator.
Its 21.5-ton operating class, six-cylinder Doosan engine and nearly 10-meter maximum digging reach make it suitable for medium and heavy construction work. In addition, the established crawler design is familiar to many equipment operators and service teams.
For fleets that need a machine for excavation, trenching, loading and site development, the DX225LCA remains a practical option in the used heavy equipment market.
