UF 1002 (15) Amazone UF 1002 (15) Specifications & Technical Data (2020—2026)

Comfortable hitching up

For an even more relaxed coupling and uncoupling of the UF 02 from the tractor, it can be equipped with the optional quick coupling system. In conjunction with the TeleSpace PTO shaft, the machine can be hitched on and off with greater comfort.

Comfortable demounting

The new parking system is completely integrated in the frame. As an option, the patented system can be equipped with castor wheels that remain on the machine even during operation. Via its simple and robust mechanical design, the parking stands or rollers can be quickly swivelled from the transport position to the work position. Any troublesome removal of parking rollers or skids is avoided.

Profi-fold

As an option for all Super-S booms, AMAZONE offers the Profi-fold electro-hydraulic actuation system. All hydraulic functions can be performed reliably and easily from the cab using the ISOBUS terminal. The multi-function joystick makes handling particularly comfortable.

Our competence in electronics

To increase the operational comfort, AMAZONE implements and operator terminals feature a scope of functionality way beyond ISOBUS standards.

Easy and comfortable operation

Why not handle a terminal as intuitively as a tablet or a smartphone? With this in mind, AMAZONE has developed the operator-friendly AmaTron 4 which offers a noticeably smoother operational process, especially when it comes to job management. The AmaTron 4, with its 8" multi-touch colour display meets the highest expectations and offers maximum user-friendliness. A swipe of the finger or using the App carousel allows quick changes between applications, and the simple and clearly structured operating menu. A useful MiniView, a freely configurable status line as well as a virtual light bar make the use of the AmaTron 4 particularly clear and convenient.

AmaTron Twin App

The AmaTron Twin App offers the driver even more comfort in work, as GPS functions in the field view can also be operated via a mobile device (e.g. tablet) in parallel with machine operation in AmaTron 4.

Secure data exchange

AMAZONE opens the way to universal data exchange by means of the manufacturer-independent agrirouter. The agrirouter enables data to be exchanged between AMAZONE machinery, agricultural software, manufacturers and companies both securely and without any complications.

myAmaRouter App

The myAmaRouter App enables data to be exchanged between the AmaTron 4 ISOBUS terminal and the agrirouter manufacturer-independent data exchange platform. If work on an AMAZONE machine is to be carried with job data (e.g. application maps), the data can be easily transmitted from the agrirouter to the AmaTron 4 via the myAmaRouter App and sent back after completion.

The new dimension in control and monitoring

AmaPad 2 from AMAZONE is a particularly high-quality operator terminal. The 12.1" multi-touch colour display is particularly comfortable and fulfils the highest demands on Precision Farming. AmaPad 2 is operated solely via touch. With the practical “MiniView concept”, applications which aren’t being actively operated at that moment but need to be monitored are clearly displayed at the side. When needed these can be enlarged via “a finger swipe”. The possibility to individualise a “dashboard panel” with the displays of choice rounds up the user ergonomics.

AmaPilot+

Thanks to the AUX-N feature, you can operate multiple functions of the machine via AmaPilot+ or any other ISOBUS multi-function joystick.

ISOBUS terminals from Amazone

The advantages: Uniform AMAZONE operating philosophy. Practice-oriented and logical menu structure. Simple and clear operation. Freely configurable user interfaces.

High-capacity spray agent tanks

The UF 02 mounted sprayer is available in tank capacities of 1,000 l, 1,300 l, 1,600 l and 2000 l. The specially shaped, polyethylene tank is integrated into the main frame to give a favourable centre of gravity. The advantages of this tank design are the absolutely smooth inner and outer walls of the tank, the rounded internal design and the low positioned sump on the tank bottom. This allows for quick, effective tank cleaning as well as minimal residual volumes. The filling of the tank is carried out, both on the suction side and also when pressure filling from a water source, near to the tank bottom. This reliably eliminates any tendency for foaming during the filling procedure.

Everything thought of! Fill level and cleaning

The fill level can be read off both via a clearly visible scale or from the operator terminal. High-performance, rotating nozzles clean the spray agent tank internally. Short pipe runs and hose cross-sectional areas as small as possible make for low residual volumes. Continuous internal cleaning is available as an option (not with Flow Control+).

Well thought through – in every detail

The 20 l hand wash tank is positioned above the induction bowl and it is completely integrated into the machine design. The wash water runs directly into the induction bowl and is sucked into the tank. In addition, an easily-accessible soap dispenser is positioned underneath the hand wash tank. As standard, the UF 02 features a 30 l dustproof and splash water safe clothing locker for carrying any personal protective equipment.

SmartCenter with Standard-Pack – simple and intuitive operation

Essentially, Standard-Pack means that the UF 02 is operated mainly via the manual suction and the pressure taps. The suction tap determines from where the pump is going to draw the liquid from, whereas, correspondingly, the pressure tap determines where the pump will send the spray liquid to. In addition, the in-house developed 7-way pressure tap from AMAZONE simplifies control of the pressure side.

SmartCenter with Comfort-Pack – Operation made easy!

In conjunction with Comfort-Pack, the TwinTerminal 3.0 is also utilised. In addition, automatic fill stop for the suction fill is also included. As an option, fill stop is also available when pressure filling from a bowser. During application, the intensity of the agitation is regulated depending on the tank fill level. As the fill level decreases, the agitation capacity is automatically reduced down until it is completely switched off preventing the formation of foam at a low fill level. In addition, the automatic agitation regulation offers auto-dynamic agitator control. This means: if larger application rates are required at the nozzle, the agitator output is reduced. When the nozzles are switched off on the headland, the agitation is automatically restored. After the spraying operation is finished, Comfort-Pack provides fully automatic cleaning which can be controlled completely remotely from the tractor cab. Additional functions such as boom rinsing, cleaning the spray liquid circuit from heavy deposits or a defined dilution of a subsequent tank mix in the field are all functions included within Comfort-Pack.

7-way pressure tap

The UF 02 is equipped with a 7-way pressure tap. As oppose to a normal rotary ball valve, the in-house developed valve from AMAZONE consists of a cam and valve seats. Exclusively by swivelling in and out the handle on the pressure tap, the relevant liquid paths are reliably opened or closed.

The DUS pressure recirculation system – proven more than 10,000 times

The AMAZONE DUS pressure recirculation system ensures a reliable circulation throughout the entire system. When starting the spraying operation, all the hoses including the spray lines are filled under pressure in the reverse direction with the mixed spray agent. This means the spray lines are always filled and immediately ready to use over the entire working width. There is no waiting on the headland. Every time individual part-width sections are shut off, during the turning operation and during transport, the spray liquid circulates continually thanks to the pressure recirculation system. This reliably prevents deposits, blockages or segregation in the spray lines. During the cleaning operation, fresh water flushes the spray lines out right up to the nozzles without any spraying being necessary. During this cleaning procedure, the concentrated spray liquid is returned back to tank via the pressure recirculation system leaving the spray lines clean.

Advantages of Mounted Sprayers

The special advantages offered of more manoeuvrable tractors with a mounted implement compared with trailed sprayers in smaller and more awkward shaped fields, as well as the better behaviour on slopes, are the major arguments for the front tank solution. Additionally, in the 3,500-litre self-propelled sprayer class, a comfortable tractor equipped with a high-quality combination of mounted sprayer and front tank makes an interesting alternative.

Growers

Growers, for whom the volume of their UF 02 mounted sprayer is not large enough, can expand the nominal volume up to 3,500 litres by combining it with a front tank. With the aid of FlowControl+, the front tank is completely integrated into the spray liquid circuit of the UF 02.

Exceptional performance

With its teamwork of shape and performance, the UF 2002 convinced and inspired the iF Jury, consisting of experts and designers from all over the world. The jury's evaluation criteria included, in addition to the quality of design, the finish and material choice, the degree of innovation and the environmental compatibility, its functionality and ergonomics and, finally, a visualisation of use and safety.

Favourable centre of gravity – perfect frame design

Due to the large tank volumes of the UF 02, it is of importance to link the machine to the tractor with as favourable a centre of gravity as possible. To ensure this, the UF 02 is equipped with two different link arm positions for different tractors. Guide plates in front of the frame help to link the lower link arms to the torsion-safe, lower link pins.

Maintenance-free and with a long service life

The decades of experience in boom design pay off: the conical hinge pin is the intelligent centre of a well thought-out boom philosophy! The boom pivots self-adjust against any play on the conical hinge pins and that ensures for the user an optimal boom functionality even after many years. The standard use of stainless steel, the automotive-industry standard, cathodic dip painting process and the targeted use of plastics and aluminium are the perfect guarantee of a long service life.

High performance and reliable pump technology

The UF 02 can be equipped with a single pump system with a choice of 150 l/min, 200 l/min, 250 l/min or 300 l/min as required. During the filling procedure at a nominal pump speed, the full pump capacity is available for filling the spray agent tank. At the same time, either the contents of the induction bowl can be drawn out via the venturi or the total fill capacity can be increased up to 450 l/min.

Stepless hydraulic main agitator

The intensity of the hydraulic agitator can be steplessly reduced down to nothing in order to avoid any foaming of the crop protection agent or to facilitate spraying out the remaining tank contents.

Pre-select folding

Independent folding is possible via either the AmaSpray in-cab terminal or an ISOBUS terminals via the tractor spool valves.

Electrically-controlled TG valve chest

The TG part-width valve chest is available for either ISOBUS control or AmaSpray+. The boom part-width sections are switched, on and off, quickly and drip-free via electric motor valves with pressure equalisation. The amount applied is accurately and directly controlled by the computer in any situation. An equal pressure unit is not required with this technology.

Automatic 50 cm part-width section switching

With AmaSwitch, AMAZONE offers the precise solution for automatic part-width section control on 50 cm sections. AmaSwitch is the ideal alternative for users who want to maximise the benefits of very precise switching in wedge shaped fields and areas of overlap, thanks to the 50 cm part-width section control. Standard equipment with AmaSwitch includes the DUS pro high pressure recirculation system and, in addition, can be equipped with LED individual nozzle lighting.

3-fold nozzle body, with electric on/off switching

The technology behind AmaSwitch is based on a conventional, manually-rotated, 3-fold nozzle body with electric individual on/off. The opening and closing is achieved via an electric valve which is fixed directly onto the nozzle body. In conjunction with GPS-Switch, it is thus possible to very precisely control 50 cm part-width sections in short work and on the headland. In addition to the automatic switching using 50 cm part-width sections, it is possible to configure the amount of part-width sections from choice.

End nozzle switching

If a one metre buffer zone around the edge of the field needs to remain unsprayed due to distance constraints, end nozzle switching can be used.

Optional camera system

In difficult driving situations, such as when pulling out of road junctions, the optional camera system on the front tank and on the mounted sprayer provides better visibility, and thus more safety, to the front and the rear. The high resolution, anti-glare monitor has a back-lit display and can display two cameras at the same time.

AmaSpray+ operator terminal

The handy AmaSpray+ is specifically designed for the operation of AMAZONE sprayers and offers simple, but nevertheless, automatic control of the UF mounted sprayer. Switches integrated into the operator terminal enable the control of 5, 7 or 9 part-width sections. AmaSpray+ has a digital pressure display and digital tank level indicator. It records the quantity applied and area worked. The hydraulic functions are operated using the spool valves on the tractor. Boom tilt and pendulum lock are also displayed in the AmaSpray+. As an option, AmaSpray+ enables one-sided folding of the boom or, alternatively, access to the boundary and end nozzle spraying systems. The AmaSpray+ operator terminal with serial Interface can also be used for the automatic documentation (ASD) and part area site-specific application via a GPS terminal.

One language, many benefits!

Each ISOBUS-enabled machine from AMAZONE comes with the latest technology and almost unlimited possibilities. It does not matter whether you use an operator terminal from AMAZONE or an ISOBUS terminal directly installed in your tractor. ISOBUS is a worldwide recognised communication standard between, on the one hand, operator terminal, tractor and connected implements and, on the other hand, farm management systems.

Operation via any ISOBUS terminal

Which means that ISOBUS enables you to take control of all your ISOBUS compatible equipment. You just connect the machine with the relevant ISOBUS terminal and immediately the normal operator interface is displayed on the monitor screen in your tractor cab.

Precise switching in 50 cm part-width sections

The decisive benefit of the individual nozzle control is the possibility to operate with small part-width sections giving an even greater degree of precision in wedge shaped fields, short work and on the headland. If AmaSwitch or AmaSelect is combined with the automatic GPS-Switch Section Control, the automatic switching of individual nozzles in 50 cm part-width sections is made possible. With this system, areas of overlap are significantly reduced and are, in comparison with a conventional Section Control part-width section shut-off system, up to 85 % less. So, the combination of GPS-Switch and individual nozzle control results in, depending on field shape and size, the working width and number of part-width sections, significant savings of spray agent compared with a normal spraying system used thus far.

GPS-Switch

With GPS-Switch, AMAZONE offers a GPS-based, fully automatic, part-width section control for all AMAZONE operator terminals and ISOBUS compatible fertiliser spreaders, crop protection sprayers or seed drills.

GPS-Maps&Doc

All standard ISOBUS terminals from AMAZONE can collect and save machine and site-specific data using Task Controller. Part-area, site-specific operation via the application maps in a shape and ISO-XML format is also possible.

Communication in real time

With AmaTron Connect, AMAZONE provides a digital interface to a smartphone or tablet. The mobile device and the ISOBUS terminal AmaTron 4 are simply connected as a hotspot.

Simultaneously superbly strong and superbly light

Due to the special profile design, AMAZONE sprayer booms are very light yet, at the same time, very robust. The nozzle bodies with integrated diaphragm non-return anti-drip valves fit up into the boom profiles reliably preventing any dripping from the nozzle. Self-adjusting bayonet fixings ensure a tool-less quick nozzle change. For any operational use and any application rate, the right nozzles are available, for example, for optimum wetting, anti-drift or for liquid fertiliser use.

Boom Guidance Optimization

The driver is able to concentrate on correctly applying the plant protection agent, whilst the computer optimises the boom guidance!

Quad nozzle body, with the additional 25 cm nozzle spacing

In addition to the triple nozzle body, AmaSwitch electric single nozzle control can also be equipped with a quad nozzle body. In addition, a true 25 cm nozzle spacing can be achieved with the aid of an optional extension kit. This offers the benefit, in combination with specific 80° nozzles, to reduce the boom to target surface distance down to less than 50 cm.

Less drift also at higher wind speeds

With the air-inclusion injector nozzles, crop protection agents can be applied with very little drift. They are universally usable in all crops and all classifications. Because of the coarse droplet application, these nozzles can also be used in higher wind speeds. AMAZONE offers a wide range of nozzles from agrotop, Lechler and TeeJet.

Single and multi-nozzle bodies

The nozzle bodies with integrated diaphragm non-return anti-drip valves fit up into the boom profiles reliably preventing any dripping from the nozzle. Self-adjusting bayonet fixings ensure a tool-less quick nozzle change. The triple or quad nozzle bodies are suited to frequent nozzle changes due to different applications and crops. Nozzle protection tubes, as standard on the outer sections, or, if desired, over the entire boom working width, ensures protection for long injector nozzles and multiple nozzle bodies.

Injector nozzles

Injector nozzles (ID, TTI) have a relatively coarse droplet spectrum and are particularly versatile with regard to their range of application. A pressure range of 2 to 8 bar is possible. If coverage quality is at the foreground of the application, the use of standard or anti-drift fine droplet nozzles, such as XR or AD, is recommended. Special care is required here due to the tendency for drift above 3 bar. A good compromise is provided by the modern ID-K or Airmix compact injector nozzles. These have relatively little drift, but do not have too coarse a droplet spectrum and are operated at 2 to 4 bar. When it comes to special coverage qualities, the double flat fan nozzle is an interesting alternative: the AVI Twin from Agrotop also produces droplets that are not too fine.

Additional nozzle switching

In order to extend the normal working width, an asymmetrical nozzle can also be switched on. This is particularly useful if the distances between tramlines are not precise enough.

Boundary nozzle switching

For precision border spraying between two sensitive crops, the boundary nozzles can be used to make sure the spray pattern is accurately defined.

Liquid fertilisation

In conjunction with the AMAZONE booms, a separate drag hose kit for risk-free late fertilising is available. The self-contained aluminium profiles can be attached with a few hand clamps. Stainless steel weights help keep the position of the drag hoses within the crop. For the coarse droplets distribution of liquid fertiliser, AMAZONE offers multi-hole nozzles (3, 5, or 7 hole).

LED individual nozzle lighting

Professional work lighting is today the basis of a flexible, output-increasing solution to operating in twilight and at night. LED individual nozzle lighting picks out each individual spray fan. An absolutely immediate assessment of their operation down to the very last nozzle on the boom can be made.

LED boom lighting for Super-S booms

For flexible and efficient operation at twilight and in the dark, LED boom lighting is available. Two far-reaching LED work lights, mounted in the middle of the boom, ensure excellent visibility of all the nozzles at a glance.

Boom design to perfection

In hilly terrain and with large working widths, hydraulic tilt adjustment makes sense. The quick and precise tilting and return of the boom into the level position is possible via a tractor spool valve or via the electro-hydraulic functions in the ISOBUS terminal. The AMAZONE Super-S series booms are JKI approved. They therefore comply with the highest European demands for crop protection implements!

AMAZONE booms – an idea becomes reality

It is easy to carry due to the low centre of gravity and the light and robust design of the machine. The front axle weight load is lower than that of many competitors. The visibility in road transport is exemplary. Anywhere the tractor can go, the sprayer, with its narrow booms, goes as well. No protruding parts, no boom damage, minimal transport width. The boom locates safely in the transport hooks. No rattling. No susceptible wear on the boom pivots. High road speeds are not a problem.

The robust, entry-level boom

With the horizontally folded Q-Plus boom in working widths of 12 m, 12.5 m and 15 m, AMAZONE offers an entry-level boom that is second to none when it comes to quality and reliability. Folding in and out is hydraulic as standard, as are the boom height adjustment and one-sided folding in the left-hand direction of travel.

The comfortable, industry-leading boom in working widths up to 30 metres

The vertically folding Super-S boom is available in working widths from 15 m to 30 m. Due to the layout of the boom, there are only a few pivot points, which enables a quick folding and, more importantly, a transport width of just 2.40 metres. When equipped with Profi-fold electro-hydraulic boom actuation and DistanceControl height control, operation is made so much easier. The Super-S boom is available as the Super-S1 from 15 m to 21 m and the Super-S2 from 15 m to 30 m.

More than just the solid core: Profiles made from high tensile steel

What has been taken away from the boom in weight has been returned in output. The clever lightweight design makes use of the material where it makes sense. For instance, aluminium for weight reduction at the outer boom sections of the Super-S2 boom, but not however, in the middle of the boom. There, high tensile steel is necessary so that the boom is kept rigid and in line and so spray errors due to movement are prevented.

Super-S1 boom 15 – 18 – 21 metres

Due to the layout of the boom sections, there are only a few pivot points, which allows faster folding. The well-known, robust profile construction convinces completely. Despite the individual sections of the Super-S1 boom being 50 centimetres longer in comparison with the Super-S2 boom, the machine height comes to just 3.48 metres. The Super-S1 boom, in working widths of 18 and 21 metres, can be easily reduced to 15 metres by folding in the outer boom sections.

DistanceControl with 2 sensors or DistanceControl plus with 4 sensors

As an option for the Super-S boom, AMAZONE offers, either DistanceControl fully automated boom height control with two sensors or DistanceControl plus with four sensors. In heavily differing crop heights, or in areas with partially lodged corn, it could be that the boom, when equipped with 2 sensors, dips into the crop. In this case equipping the boom with four sensors will prevent this. The sensors are electrically connected in parallel and so it is always the sensor that is closest to the target surface that is actuated.
