03.04.2020

An economical self-propelled sprayer of a capacity up to 3500 litres and an automated system for management of fluid circulation between tanks.

For several years now the company Amazone has been successfully supplying a front tank FT 1001, and it decided to expand its range with an additional front tank FT 1502. With the front tank FT 1502 the tank capacity of a suspended field sprayer UF 02 can be easily increased by additional 1500 litres. For example, the suspended field sprayer UF 2002 together with FT 1502 has a total capacity of 3500 litres. With the optional FlowControl+ system and compact design, the front tank is an ideal solution increasing capacity of UF 02.

Its well thought-out design ensures maximum safety.

At a farm and in a hall: It is always possible to find sufficient room for a compact set on transport rollers. Its easy operation will be found suitable by everybody already after a few uses. The interior of the sprayer set can be cleaned correctly using rinsing water from the UF 02 tank of 350 litres capacity. The compact sprayer-tractor set is a perfect solution during the transport, especially in narrow streets.

The FlowControl+ liquid management system

The front tank FT 1502 is fully integrated with a suspended sprayer, and the two components communicate through the ISOBUS terminal using the digital liquid management system FlowControl+. The technical foundation of the FlowControl+ system are two digital level meters in the front and the rear tanks and two high performance injectors. They are supplied by an additional pump of an output of 150 L/min installed at UF. The transfer capacity in each direction is up to 200 L/min. With a continuous liquid circulation between the front and the rear tanks, the working liquid is always perfectly homogenised. The ISOBUS terminal automatically controls the liquid circulation always ensuring an optimal distribution of mass. This prevents too early reduction of weight put onto the front axis. During the filling process, the FlowControl+ system automatically fills both tanks, and both tanks are automatically emptied. At the end, both tanks are also washed.

When the manual control is used, the automated FlowControl+ function can be deactivated and the front tank can be used only to transport additional water for rinsing or utility water. In practice, the FlowControl+ pump can additionally support filling of UF 02, so the maximum performance of the set can reach even up to 400 L/min.

An interesting alternative to a self-propelled sprayer

With the capacity of up to 3500 litres, the set consisting of UF 02 and FT 1500 combined with
a modern tractor can represent an interesting alternative to a self-propelled sprayer.
A great advantage of this set is its price and a possibility to use the tractor for other works.
