Mounted Air Boom Applicators AB200DSM Applicator for John Deere
The leading pneumatic applicator with 80’ air booms, for John Deere high clearance chassis models.
Features
The industry’s largest and most efficient pneumatic applicator is equipped with an 80’ air boom that beats the competition by 14% in application width. The AB200DSM is engineered for the latest generation of Deere® 600R high clearance chassis and compatible with the 600R’s greater hydraulic capacity and fully integrates with the Greenstar® 4600 Command center with Spreadstar™ rate control. The self-propelled applicator is available with a two-compartment hopper to maximize application options and precision and the patented row crop boom can be equipped with application drop tubes on 30-inch centers.
80-FOOT ROW CROP BOOM WITH HYDRAULIC SUSPENSION
The AB200DS2 has an 80-foot working width, engineered for stability at high operating speeds, spanning 14% more than the next largest pneumatic applicator available on the market. Air booms and funnels are factory calibrated. This makes for incredibly accurate application in the widest range of conditions.
The hydraulic boom suspension allows for greater in-field stability at higher operating speeds. The boom height can also be manually controlled by the operator to improve contouring in uneven terrain. The AB200DS has a higher, 69-inch boom clearance for post-emergence application later in the growing season and can be paired with optional drop tube kit on 30-inch centers for application in standing row crops.
HOPPER & METERING
185 cubic foot primary hopper with a 30 cubic foot micro-bin. The microbin uses secondary metering rollers that can be easily changed to achieve lower rates, or more accurately meter finer product. This system is ideal for micro-nutrients, granular crop protection products, or cover crops. Materials that are applied in lower rates and/or have very fine granules that require a more selective meter.
Like the split hopper, this bin configuration allows the user to fill the entire hopper with one product and apply. The internal gate in the micro-hopper can be can be opened, allowing product from the micro-bin to be diverted away from the meter roll and into the primary hopper.
ELECTRIC TARP
The AB200DS hopper can be equipped with an electrically controlled tarp. The tarp can be opened and closed from within the cab using controls in the GreenStar 4600 CommandCenterTM or can be operated using the wireless remote included with the system.
GREENSTAR 4600 COMMANDCENTER WITH SPREADSTAR RATE CONTROL
Prescription variable rate control is handled through the GreenStar 4600 CommandCenterTM. With the integrated SpreadStarTM software, operators get a simple and intuitive interface. Left and right sections can be operated manually through the multi-function handle or automatically using sectional control. Fan on and off is activated through the CommandARMTM and uses PWM control through the SpreadStarTM controller.
