Four Wheel Chassis Boom

Features

• The boom can be towed and operated from both ends of the chassis saving time and greatly simplifying positioning procedure. Four wheel steering means the boom follows the tractor when being pulled into the row to keep crop damage to a minimum.
• The option of ‘offset water feed’ keeps the hosereel pipe in the wheeling, alleviating traction problems during ‘pull out’ and eliminating damage to the crop. With this option the boom is pulled out with the central drawbar.
• Semi-automatic locking catches mean that even the largest booms are genuinely a one person operation with no lifting or carrying.
• There is a choice of Nelson pressure regulated S3000 Sprayjets or R3000 Rotators configured to suit flow rates and droplet size requirements of the soil and crop.
• Pressure regulators are used on all Nelson S3000 or R3000 nozzle assemblies ensuring a perfectly matched flow rate across all nozzles.
• Ball valve control on all sprinkler/spray-jet outlets enables sections to be shut off to suit irrigation requirements and allows individual nozzles to be unblocked if necessary
• Optional combination of sprinklers and spray jets on the ends of the boom to suit differing irrigated width requirements.
• A choice of blanking plates, raingun mounting kits and end sprinklers give the booms incredibly good versatility.
• All models are equipped with a turntable allowing the boom to be set at an angle or rotated around any obstacle during irrigation.
• Simple connection to the hosereel with a robust taper lock latch assembly.
• Can be used with almost any make and size of hosereel.
• Self-levelling system allows the boom to remain level with the ground. This can be locked when the boom is used on side slopes.
• Optional stainless steel pipework for corrosive liquids.
• Optional ‘hydraulic raising tower’ alows the boom to work at 3.1m height (from the ground to the nozzles). This is a very strong and simple to use system with a choice of hydraulic controls.
