Electrically
operated harvester
for green and white asparagus
WHG Professional type
Manufactured in 1999 in more than 200 units, this machine was designed
to meet the needs of asparagus farmers in Northern Europe.
It ensures the same performances and price of the "VERDE" type,
including the CAB system (for the features, see our model "VERDE"),
but features a special frame suitable for harvesting on soil mounds. It
can be used both for green and white asparagus.
Its heavy-duty frame (160 kg) makes it possible to work on very wet and
uneven soils. It is fitted with hydraulic suspension and the height of
frame from the ground can be adjusted.
It is the only model on which the nylon lifting device (ECO-SYSTEM) can
be assembled.
NEW:
Over time this model has undergone major changes to
solve a number of problems faced by farmers. The very last news is the
so-called CAB (Automatic Battery Control).
This system has been specially designed and manufactured to prevent
batteries from going flat and increase their duration: 3 years for flat
plate batteries and 5 years for tubular batteries. The system, implemented
two years ago, works as follows:
-
- (A) measures the battery charge every 10 seconds, calculates the average value every 10 minutes and send it to a 10-light display.
-
- As the batteries reach 21 volts, a "low charge warning" buzzer is activated
-
- As the batteries reach 20 volts, the machine stops automatically and a red LED illuminates.
- To bring the machine back to your premises, you simply have to hold the system disable pushbutton (B) pressed down.
As the machine works on very wet soils, it features new stainless steel bearings on the drive hubs. This prevents the hubs from getting stuck because of rust during inactivity.
