Salford AB200DS2 Applicator for John Deere

This Salford next-generation air boom applicator is engineered for the latest generation of Deere® 600R series high clearance chassis. With an 80’ pneumatic applicator, this machine can comfortably cover more than 70 acres per hour at 10 miles per hour. That’s 14% more than the leading competitor, and the applicator is capable of accurately delivering product at twice that speed. The 6700 is one of the most versatile applicators available. The patented row crop boom can be equipped with application drop tubes on 30” to deliver nutrients below the canopy mid-season, providing nutrients to the crops when they’re needed most and preventing the stress of leaf burn on the growing crop.

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

Model year 2023 AB200DS applicators are available with two unique hopper configurations. Either configuration allows for a single product or two product application and can be useful for applying different treated products.

With the AB200DS2, the operator can fill the hopper with one product, or can fill two products in either a 50/50 or 60/40 split. The bin partitions have independent metering, allowing for variable rate application.

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 CommandCenter^TM 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 CommandCenter^TM. With the integrated SpreadStar^TM 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 CommandARM^TM and uses PWM control through the SpreadStar^TM controller.
