Amazone UX11200 Makes Debut at LAMMA 2013
2012-12-11

Amazone Ltd will extend their range of UX trailed sprayers with a new model at LAMMA 2013. With the UX 11200, Amazone now offers a 12,000 l sprayer with tandem axle system for large farms and expanding businesses needing to cope with higher yard to field distances.

With its unique DoubleTrail tracking system, the UX 11200 trailed sprayer turns on a sixpence

With an actual volume of 12,000 litres (nominal volume 11,200) the UX 11200 offers a huge capacity for maximising work rates but with subsequently reduced non-productive time. Boom widths are from 24m up to 40m.

The vehicle concept is feature-packed with its fill-level regulated hydro-pneumatic axle suspension with roll stabilisation and tall tyres up to a diameter of 1.95 m. With a permissible road speed of up to 40 km/h, as standard with automatic braking force regulator and a support load of up to 3 t on the hitch drawbar coupling, the UX 11200 is as convincing on the road as it is in the field. The full load even with AUS, thanks to the good weight distribution, can be carried on 520 mm wide tyres. The proven Super-L boom, from 24 to 40 m working width, performs even better on this chassis and is folded in just as compactly as usual into the transport position.

As standard, the chassis features a track-following steering rear axle (SingleTrail) for good ride characteristics and little wheel track damage. As an option, the UX 11200 can also be equipped with the electronically controlled, DoubleTrail axle steering. The electronic track-following steering of both axles is not only of particular importance when in row crops such as potatoes or beet but also for smaller field sizes. Here, true track-following to the tractor is excellently maintained and – above all – the boom is not negatively affected by any steering movement.

The spray agent tank follows the functionality and design line of the UX range and features a low centre of gravity. The smooth tank shape allows the targeted use of fewer baffles and without an internal clear water tank. The centre of gravity neutral, 1,000 litres fresh water tank is located between the two axles. With this large amount of fresh water on board, 8 internal cleaning nozzles and a hopper bottom optimised to keep residual volumes down to a minimum, washing out is no problem, With the Comfort-Pack fitted as standard the UX 11200 comes with automatic fill stop, agitation intensity control and automatic cleaning.

The 750 l/min pump system offers a guaranteed effective agitation capacity, even with low application rates or complex tank mixes. Depending on the individual operation, 500 l/min can be used for agitation or up to 400 l/min for maximum application rates with the optional HighFlow equipment.

The operator terminal features the well-proven in-house manufactured valve components and is neatly located and well protected behind the large cover. This cover helps to minimise any contamination of the control taps and yet offers very good access for quick and effective maintenance. In-cab control of the UX11200 comes from the new AMATRON 3 terminal.

The suction capacity of the UX 11200 exceeds 900 l/min via the 4“ suction port reducing the filling time.
