PICHON expands its SV liquid organic fertiliser spreader series with the inclusion of two new models: the SV12R single-axle and the SV15R tandem axle models.
SV12R: A compact and versatile single-axle model
The SV12R model has an actual capacity of 12.2 m3 and is the first single-axle model to join the PICHON SV liquid spreader series.
A movable bolted axle on the chassis is standard on this model, allowing optimal distribution of loads on the coupling ring, and on the axle, depending on the application tool. Tractor traction and driver comfort are improved as a result.
The recessing on this model allows for tyres with a maximum diameter of 1900 mm. This feature guarantees an ideal distribution of soil pressure when applying organic fertilisers.
Combined with the new PICHON ALTA double drain circuit, the SV12R is ideally suited for organic fertiliser applications in hilly areas.
SV15R: A perfect combination of capacity and traction
The SV15R model, with an actual capacity of 15.6 m3, is the perfect combination of versatility and efficiency. The tank design accommodates large diameter wheels (Ø1680 mm) guaranteeing low rolling resistance and better management of fuel consumption.
A tandem axle with reinforced pivots designed for a load of 15t per axle is standard on the SV15R. The axles are prearranged to integrate the Teleinflation option. This is designed to optimise ground surface contact and preserve the soil structure.
The optional load transfer bulkhead gives the tractor excellent traction and grip until the load is fully emptied, without the load shedding on the tractor coupling – a real advantage in hilly areas.
The air circuit allows the second compartment to be drained automatically.
SV: A range with multiple advantages
All SV models are compatible with PICHON organic fertiliser application tools: drip hose booms, trailing shoes, incorporators, and injectors. There is a tank model for each pumping solution: BP2 auto filler arm, plunger, and turret.
SV models feature iControl terminals, which are available in joystick or a joystick version with touchscreen.
Tanks come in a range of thicknesses, making it possible to attain a negative pressure close to -1 bar. This feature guarantees priming in difficult conditions and at significant pit depths.
The Pichon SV12R and SV15R are available to order now.
