Lemken: Facelift for updated Primus and Albatros trailed sprayers

Lemken’s most recent update of its popular Primus and Albatros trailed sprayers goes well beyond their more modern exteriors: technical features and handling have both been substantially improved, and the smaller entry-level Primus for professional arable farming has been completely overhauled inside and out.

Controls are now arranged more clearly and all major connections are centrally integrated behind protective covers. The attractive design is enhanced by a more rounded profile, LED lighting and a colour scheme that is in line with our other range of field sprayers.

New features include a job computer and terminal: Lemken’s updated cab interior is now equipped with an intuitive graphical user interface on the CCI-50 terminal, which comes with the standard models already. A DGPS receiver can be retrofitted if customers wish to use proven CCI apps, for example for automatic width section control or parallel tracking assistance. The Primus and Albatros models of the 12 series feature ISObus as standard and can be operated using any compatible terminal.

The new Lemken Primus 12 is available with boom widths from 15 to 30m.

The basic Primus version now comes with a circulation line, meaning that uniform spray fluid is instantly available across the full boom width as soon as the implement is switched on. EES models feature automated water hydraulics, and cleaning procedures can therefore be comfortably controlled from the cab for more environmentally responsible, sustainable work in the field. Another detail worth mentioning is the flexible drawbar, which allows operators to attach the sprayer either at the top or bottom position. The capacity of the clean water tank has also been increased to 320 litres.

The Primus 10 and 12 has tank capacities of 2,400 to 4,400 litres and boom widths from 15 to 30m, and the Albatros 10 and 12 has capacities of 4,000 to 6,200 litres and boom widths of 15 to 39m.
