RZ230C vibration roller
The Bopu RZ230C is a vibration roller rated by Bopu at 3,000 kg, with a 1,200 mm steel drum. Use its size table to plan site access and delivery, and ask Bopu for the engine and vibration data your compaction task needs.
- Machine mass
- 3,000 kg
- Steel drum width
- 1,200 mm
- Overall width
- 1,320 mm
- Published travel speed
- 0–9 km/h
RZ230C size, mass and speed
Use overall width for access and drum width for coverage.
Bopu lists the RZ230C with a 1,200 mm steel drum and 1,320 mm overall width. The overall width decides which gates and ramps the roller can pass. The drum width is the strip it rolls on each pass. Measure the narrowest entrance on your site against the 1,320 mm figure. [1]
- Steel drum diameter / thickness
- 675 / 14 mm
- Wheelbase
- 2,050 mm
- Minimum ground clearance
- 240 mm
- Overall length / height
- 2,750 / 2,523 mm
- Front-wheel mass
- 1,650 kg
- Tyre designation
- 9.5/65-15
Bopu publishes these values for the RZ230C. The 3,000 kg figure is machine mass; ask separately for shipping gross weight and any payload limit. The 0–9 km/h range is travel speed. Working speed belongs in the manual for the delivered machine. [1]
Data to request before comparing rollers
Ask Bopu for the engine make, model and power, the emission configuration for your destination, and the vibration frequency, amplitude and centrifugal force with their operating conditions. The model sheet lists none of these, so get them for the RZ230C itself.
Describe the layer and the acceptance target
Let the job set the demonstration.
Open the enquiry with your material, planned layer thickness, moisture condition and acceptance requirement. Say whether the layer is soil, aggregate or another surface. Lift thickness, pass count and achieved density depend on these conditions, and the size table gives none of them.
- Give the project criterionSend the site specification and name the test method or acceptance authority. A loose label such as “road work” leaves the target open.
- Fix the machine configurationKeep model, vibration settings, tyre arrangement and any attachments in the offer. Ask Bopu to state the RZ230C’s own operating limits, including gradeability and vibration figures.
- Agree the demonstration conditionsDescribe material preparation, layer and moisture condition, machine settings and how the result will be measured.
- Keep the test recordLog the test location, settings and measured results apart from the catalogue. Pair any video of the roller with those measured results.
Use these steps to frame the purchase. The project engineer and Bopu should agree the safe operating method and the acceptance method between them.
Check the delivery envelope
A transport quote needs the shipped state of the machine.
| Planning question | Obtain before arranging transport |
|---|---|
| Packed or uncrated? | Gross weight, packed dimensions and the shipped configuration. Crate size can differ from the published overall dimensions. |
| Loading and restraint? | Bopu’s loading, lifting and restraint instructions for the delivered model, and who handles loading and unloading. |
| Access to the work area? | Route width, surface and gradients, turning space and Bopu’s stated operating limits. Check these alongside the 240 mm ground clearance. |
| Engine and consumables? | Engine and destination configuration, required fluids, included accessories, and any transport preparation or commissioning steps. |
Start the transport talk with the overall dimensions. The public sheet has no transport drawing or loading method, so ask Bopu for both before you plan a lift. [1]
Order the manual with the machine
The public manual page lists no files yet.
Bopu’s product-manual section showed zero records on 11 October. Ask Bopu for the RZ230C manual in the revision that matches the quoted machine. [2]
List these in the handover request: operating controls and shutdown, servicing and isolation, fluid specifications, service intervals, fault information and replacement part numbers. Ask Bopu to name the engine consumables and roller wear items for this configuration, and to state service intervals and parts supply in writing.
Does the size table show compaction performance?
No. It gives geometry and mass. Compaction performance needs the working parameters plus a demonstration or assessment on your material.
Does the 0–9 km/h range mean the correct rolling speed is 9 km/h?
No. That is the published travel-speed range. Ask for the operating guidance and working conditions for your task.
Prepare a task-specific roller brief
Before ordering, get written answers from Bopu on engine and vibration figures, working limits, shipping weight and packed size, and the manual revision for your machine.
