Case Construction Equipment is replacing its previous lineup of single drum soil compactors with three new E Series machines.
The three new models of single drum vibratory soil compactors range in maximum operating weight from 8,400 kg for the new SV207E up to 15,150 kg for the new SV213E.
According to Case, the new machines deliver best-in-class centrifugal forces, an advanced self-adjusting torque control system and the most climbing power in the industry.
Improved design
The E Series features several design improvements, including a new frame design, new cab/open ROPS configurations, Tier 4 Final engines, an optional front dozer blade for grading assistance, redesigned engine compartments, an improved cooling package and optimized hydraulic and electrical routing for improved serviceability.
For example, the SV207E, features a new compact rear design and a smaller-diameter roller with a thicker shell that improves overall performance, fuel efficiency, rear visibility and manoeuvrability (thanks to a shorter turning radius).
The new single drum models include the SV207E soil compactor (75 hp), SV211E soil compactor (134 hp) and the SV213E soil compactor (134 hp).
The E Series single drum vibratory rollers are able to climb grades of up to 67 per cent (with the automatic traction control option).
The machines are designed to be axle-free with a low-centre-of-gravity, which provides constant power to the wheels and drum with an electronic self-adjusting torque control system.

With centrifugal forces ranging from 6,525 kg up to more than 29,000 kg, and standard dual amplitude/frequencies, the E Series is suitable for compacting a wide range of lift heights and depths completed in fewer passes for increased productivity.
Performance on rough, uneven terrain is improved with an oscillating articulated roller joint that maintains consistent drum-to-ground contact, and an updated drum design reduces drift and maintains constant compaction throughout each rotation.
Available options include a padfoot drum, padfoot shell kit, front dozer blade and the automatic traction control system that provides increased torque and speed over the standard hydrostatic drive system.
New operator environment
Available in both cab and open ROPS configurations, E Series soil compactors feature a spacious, comfortable and intuitive operator environment with an adjustable seat that swivels up to 80 degrees, providing excellent visibility of the drum surface.
Rear visibility is maximized with a sloped rear deck design.
Each machine also features a new LED display integrated within the steering wheel, which further improves operation, visibility and access to critical machine information.
The E Series is also designed for groundline serviceability.
As well, manual-lift hoods provide easy access at ground level to all fluid ports, drains, service checkpoints and filters for simplified maintenance.
