| Twin outlet pressurised hopper | As standard, the Cirrus 9004-2C Grand is equipped with a twin-chamber hopper, which is split in a ratio of 60:40. The total hopper capacity, which is optimised for big bags and comes with sufficient overcapacity, is 5,750 l. The overcapacity means that it can be filled when convenient. The hopper can always accommodate the entire contents of a big bag, even with large residual amounts. This simplifies seed logistics, since the time of filling can be more flexible. |
|
| Perfect application | The twin-chamber hopper enables the separate metering of different types of seeds or fertiliser. The two hopper chambers can be filled with just one material, if required, for maximum output. Exact distribution is guaranteed by the pressurised hopper system with its high-performance conveying system. Up to 400 kg/ha can be efficiently applied at a working speed of 15 km/h. Furthermore, the low power requirement of the blower fan underlines the enormous efficiency of the machine. A TwinTerminal can be used for the simple and precise calibration of the metering unit. |
|
| Flexibility for versatile farming | In general, the materials metered from both hopper chambers are sown by the same conveying system using the single-shoot process. If, for instance, fertiliser is also to be applied with the seed, the Cirrus-C offers the option ofmetering two different materials. As a result, either two crops or one seed type and one fertiliser type are embedded in the seed furrow using the single-shoot system. |
|
| Accurate metering drive | The metering system is suitable for all seeds and seed rates from 1.5 to 400 kg/ha. Metering cassettes with a high capacity mean that they have low peripheral speeds and thus protect the seed from damage. Conversion from fine seeds to normal seeds is carried out in seconds by exchanging the metering cassettes. They can even be changed when the seed hopper is full. The metering cassettes supplied as standard cover up to 95 % of all seed types. Additional cassettes are available, for instance, for maize or specialist crops. |
|
| Depth control | The parallel-guided depth control rollers provide the safe maintenance of the sowing depth on each individual coulter. The Control+ depth control rollers are available in widths of 50 mm, 65 mm and 75 mm. This means that the working performance of the machine is ensured on any soils from the lightest sand with poor carrying ability to the heaviest clay. Optional scrapers on the depth guidance roller ensure the even guidance of the coulter even under moist conditions. |
|
| Seed guidance | The guide extension and the seed catcher safely deliver the seed to the bottom of the furrow and prevent any bouncing out of the individual grains. The standard inner scraper, as an option also with hard metal wear plates, ensures the accurate operation even on sticky soils and noticeably increases the operational reliability. |
