PRESS RELEASE

Ikarus S – New Trailed Sprayer from Kverneland Rau

13.10.2010, Nieuw-Vennep, The Netherlands

Ikarus S38 with HSS 27m boom

Ikarus S – the new trailed sprayer from Kverneland Rau. The Ikarus S is
based on the Ikarus A sprayer range. On this new model a new three-part side-
folding boom is introduced. This boom extends the HSS Steel Liner boom family
from 18-24 up to 27 and 28m.

The Ikarus S range is developed with focus on maximum operator comfort, safety and
functionality. An up to date control centre with Easy Set valve panel is fully integrated
and optimal protected behind a door. The spraying, agitation and cleaning volume is
generated by the 200, 250 or 400 l/min high capacity pumps.

HSS 27-28m 3-part folded steel liner boom


The new three-part folded HSS boom combines 27/28m working width with short and
compact folding alongside the tank, resulting in only 2,50m transport width. The special
designed HSS profiles give maximum strength to the boom and full protection of
nozzles, hoses and spray lines.

Main product features:


1) Ikarus S is an extremely compact trailed sprayer with big tank capacity and
drawbar steering option, Autotrac, for a short turning radius with accurate track
following. This is high capacity spraying, also in combination with the use of
lighter tractors.

2) A complete range of control systems from the easiest FlowMate Control (FMC)
spraying computer, to the Kverneland Group Focus II terminal up to the fully
ISOBUS compatible IsoMatch Tellus virtual terminal. All electronics are in-house
developments and are produced by Kverneland Group Mechatronics.
3) The Kverneland Rau ENFO (ENvironmental FOcus) rinsing and priming is
standard on Ikarus S sprayers. The ENFO system allows automatic rinsing and
priming of the spray lines. This results in minimizing residual liquid as well as
clean water and disposal pollution risks.
4) Two steel boom families, HC multiple vertical folded and HSS two-part side
folded, offers an extensive choice ranging from 18 to 24m. The new three-part
folded HSS boom expands the range to 27/28m working width with all the
advantages of HSS family without exceding 2,50m transport width.
5) Optional equipment available which makes your life easy: Starguide II GPS
control, electrical level indicator, Automatic Suction Valve (ASV) for automatic
stopping the filling process etc.
