The Vredo SSU is a self-contained unit with a universal injector coupling in the form of a three-point hitch and optional multifaster, which ensures that any type of injector can be attached for umbilical slurry technology in the future.
The unit has its own control box and load sensing hydraulics in combination with ISOBUS.
Umbilical with every injector
The new Vredo SSU concept enables all injectors up to 18 metres that do not fold forward to be attached with one coupling. In addition to standard application behind a towed tank or self-propelled vehicle, using the Vredo SSU means your own injector(s) can also be used for umbilical technology.
Compact, flexible and manoeuvrable
Thanks to its compact design and a minimal length increase of 12 cm compared with a standard three-point hitch, the centre of gravity of the combination stays close to the towing vehicle and ensures excellent weight distribution.
The arm’s pivoting point is close to the towing vehicle. Combined with the automatic retraction mechanism this ensures the unit easy manoeuvrability and steering. As the arm’s pulling point is level with the lower draw bar, no weight is transferred to the rear when pulling.
The Vredo SSU rotates on two pivot points in the arm, so reversing is even possible. The supply hose will move next to the towing vehicle without exerting extreme forces on the hose or the SSU construction.
As the SSU arm rotates over the injector, the supply hose never pulls on the injector itself. The supply hose does not obstruct any of the injector elements so slurry is applied at the same row distance over the entire working width without making any concessions to the overall slurry application performance.
