Sirius - Model 8 and 10 - Field Sprayer
From Crop Protection
The Sirius field sprayer offers a high capacity for the larger farmer or contractor. A close-coupled design means large tank volumes can be used in a mounted format. In this way, Sirius combines the output of a trailed machine, with the convenience of a mounted machine.

EcoControl + Matrix
From now on LEMKEN introduce two new options that significantly increase the ease of operation of the Sirius field sprayer. The EcoControl unit enables the operator to control all hydraulic functions of the sprayer via two joysticks which can be mounted in a convenient location in the cab. All boom adjustments, including folding, are permanently available via the joysticks, without the need to refer to the menu screen on the main control box, As a result of this, it is easier to make boom adjustments, such as tilt and height, whilst on the move.
- The EcoControl unit is directly connected to the Ecospray Terminal and requires a constant oil flow from the tractor via the spool valve or load sensing system. Any Sirius sprayer, which is fitted with an Ecospray computer, can be upgraded to EcoControl.
- The second new LEMKEN option, Teejet Matrix 570G, offers a track guidance system with monitor that, combined with the Ecospray computer, provides a number of important functions. The field shape is recorded during the first full pass around the headland. After that, the Matrix system automatically controls the boom sections to ensure application in irregular or wedge shaped fields is optimised. Matrix features a DGPS signal corrected with EGNOS which means a precision of +/- 30 cm.
- Equipped with a camera, the track guidance system combines a live image with graphical guiding lines on the screen, enabling the driver to easily follow them. The track guidance can handle straight lines, curves, circles as well as the last leg of the field.
- The Matrix terminal is connected to the Ecospray computer via a CANBUS interface and provides an USB port. Thus the application summary can be saved as pdf file and used in further applications, GPS data can be exported to “kml“ or “shape“ files enabling an import to Google Earth and graphic display.
- The Matrix track guidance system comes with GPS Antenna, attachment, and Ecospray connection cable. The Matrix terminal can also used without the connected Ecospray computer as parallel driving assistance e.g. with cultivators or fertiliser spreaders.
Quick Connect
QuickConnect, the automatic top link coupling system from LEMKEN, combines two important benefits, which have been mutually exclusive with all tractor coupling systems in the past. Firstly, QuickConnect provides enough space between tractor and machine for the easy and safe connection of services such as PTO shaft, pipes, cables and top links. Secondly, the innovative coupling system moves the machine closer to the tractor, than has been possible before, allowing larger machines to be lifted by lighter tractors, without loss of stability.
Simple, fast and safely connected
- With QuickConnect, the tractor is first reversed to the machine leaving enough space for the driver to dismount and connect hoses, cables and PTO shaft. Other connection procedures are then completed from the safety of the tractor seat. As the tractor is reversed fully toward the machine, the intelligent coupling system automatically locks the top link into place, leaving the driver to focus on attaching the lower lift hooks.
- The equipment is disconnected from the tractor just as easily by following the above steps in reverse order. The driver unlocks the top and bottom link from his seat and then drives the tractor forward to allow enough space to disconnect all connecting elements quickly and easily from the ground.
Shorter connection and disconnection times
- Thanks to the QuickConnect system, the operator no longer has to lift heavy parts such as A-frames onto the tractor’s three-point linkage system. Furthermore, the driver does not have to leave the cabin after connecting the equipment, for example to raise the attachment for transport, resulting in reduced connection and disconnection times.
- LEMKEN’s innovative top link coupling system is particularly useful for field sprayers, which require a close connection due to their high weight. The result is a more stable tractor even with reduced front ballast.
