Amazone’s UX 7601 Super and UX 8601 Super trailed sprayers

FEATURES


The completely newly developed UX 7601 Super with an actual volume of 8,000 l and UX 8601 Super with an actual volume of 9.000 l provide maximum tank capacity on one axle.

They feature compact overall dimensions with an extremely low centre of gravity for optimum stability and a low weight and high payload.

The frame – Super-stable and elastic

The UX 7601 Super and UX 8601 Super feature a completely newly developed frame which leads directly from the axle to the standardly equipped, lower hitch drawbar. The forward-sloping frame shape enables ideal weight distribution of the sprayer – permissible drawbar loads and axle loads are optimally utilised.

The centre of gravity is very low due to the new frame profile, ensuring unrivalled stability on slopes and when cornering. The narrow profile of the spray agent tank with the fresh water tanks mounted on either side of the frame also contributes to its excellent stability under all conditions. The machines have a comparatively low weight thanks to the one-piece frame without a separate drawbar. The maximum permissible total weight is 14 t.

 

Axles – stay on track at all times

Depending on customer requirements, the UX 7601 Super and UX 8601 Super can be equipped with a rigid or steered axle (up to 28° steering angle) for true track following. Due to the compact design, the sprayer is easily manoeuvrable despite the tank capacity, and there is no difference in handling compared with the smaller model sizes. The axle is unsprung as standard, but a hydro-pneumatic axle suspension is available as an option.

Narrow tank – Rounded design

As in the case of the UX 4201 Super, 5201 Super and 6201 Super, the tanks all are made of polyethylene. The big advantage here is the generally very rounded form, inside and outside of the tank. Along with the absolutely smooth inner and outer walls of the spray agent tank, the sprayer is very easy to clean. The clever geometry of the tank means that there are no annoying nooks and crannies which are more difficult to clean. The narrow profile of the spray agent tank enhances stability when the tank is partially filled. For example, the liquid cannot slosh around so much when cornering or on a slope, thereby ensuring absolutely safe driving stability, even with a partially filled tank.

High-capacity pumps without compromise

The new UX models are equipped with a 250 l/min spraying pump and a 350 l/min agitation pump as standard, both of which are piston diaphragm pumps. The dedicated agitation pump ensures sufficient agitation intensity with these larger tank capacities. The technology behind these piston diaphragm pumps enables consistently high delivery capacities, regardless of the spray pressure.

The agitation intensity and application rate are always consistently high, regardless of whether the spray pressure is 2 or 8 bar. In addition, the piston diaphragm pumps are self-priming, which means that the complete spray agent circuit is a very simple set up and with the shortest possible hose routing. Apart from the spray agent tank, this also provides a solid foundation for fast and thorough cleaning.

The newly developed pump generation has larger piston diameters which require a shorter stroke for the same transfer capacity. This means that the diaphragms are subjected to less mechanical stress. The service life is thereby significantly increased and the amount of maintenance work reduced.

Depending on the customer requirement, the spray agent and agitator pumps can either be mechanically driven by a PTO shaft or hydraulically. The hydraulic pump drive, which is fully integrated in the ISOBUS control, regulates the required pump speed fully automatically depending on the operating status.

Maximum performance with HighFlow+

Both of the new UX models can be equipped with the optional HighFlow+ system so as to maximise work rates at the wider boom widths by means of higher working speeds and yet still guaranteeing effective application by maintaining an adequate water spray rate.

The intelligent control technology enables both pumps to be used for spraying while maintaining a high agitation intensity. Despite the enormous application rates of 400 l/min, the machine always has sufficient agitation capacity available to maintain a homogeneous spray agent, thanks to the intelligent control technology. All components of the HighFlow+ system are completely integrated into the cleaning cycle.

Maximum operating comfort via the SmartCenter

The UX 7601 Super and UX 8601 Super are operated via the SmartCenter, which is concealed under the large, one-piece cover on the left-hand side. All machines feature a 60 l induction bowl with a rinse ring, canister rinse nozzle, mixing nozzle for the effective induction of powdery granules, spray lance, tank cover with large storage space and a function for cleaning the induction bowl with the lid closed.

Three levels of operating system are available for the SmartCenter: In addition to the completely manually operated Standard-Pack, the Comfort-Pack with TwinTerminal 3.0 complete with automatic fill stop for suction and bowser filling, remotely controlled cleaning programs and fill level dependent, auto-dynamic agitator regulation is available. The most convenient solution is the Comfort-Pack plus with a pressure-sensitive touch terminal for machine operation with fully automated filling and cleaning processes.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Maximum tank capacity allowable on one axle
  • Optimum weight distribution
  • Low centre of gravity for maximum stability
  • Compact and manoeuvrable
  • Low weight for maximum payload
  • High output yet easy to operate

Equipped with all the innovative, future-proof AMAZONE crop protection technology, the new AMAZONE UX 7601 Super and UX 8601 Super trailed sprayers stand for the highest precision, performance and economy in operation.
