MECHANICAL DRIVE
SH hoppers with stepless mechanical drive can be connected to a Konnect 1000 monitor. Fitted with nine buttons, the monitor can be used to control tramline valves, show the area covered and display the hopper fill level.
SH FRONT HOPPER
New Holland SH front hoppers can be used to carry bulk materials such as seed or fertiliser to give extra capacity and autonomy in drilling or fertiliser applications. SH is available with two hopper capacity configurations, 1500 litres and 1900 litres. Distribution is carried out via metering system driven either by a ground drive wheel or electronic drive. Metered material is distributed to a choice of 2 or 4 outlets pneumatically, with a powerful hydraulically driven blower fan blowing material down the long plastic tubes to the rear implement. The bottom of the hopper is made from stainless steel, essential when handling corrosive material such as fertiliser.
Features
METERING SYSTEM
The metering system feeds the material from the hopper through 2 or 4 specially hardened plastic cell wheels. Robust plastic metering wheels on each outlet ensure consistent feeding across the full width of the outlet. For fine seeds like rape or fine granulated fertiliser, special fingers can be fitted to the metering wheels.
VISIBILITY & SAFETY
The slimline hopper maintains a low profile while still having a functional and useful capacity. Visibility is good and safety is not compromised. A powerful light kit features two headlights with high/low beam and indicators to replicate the tractor headlights in addition to a pair of LED work lights to illuminate the field ahead.
