Grimme-logo

Grimme UK has launched a range of irrigation equipment to be marketed through Grimme Irrigation Systems, and includes Monsun and Primus type gun irrigators and pump unit as well as suction hoses, pipes, lay flat, all pipe fittings, auxiliary connectors and hydraulic reels.

The turbine and gearbox are based on the proven Beinlich design, which is recognised in the industry as a market leader for its simple but effective control systems.

The Monsun irrigator is 580m long with 120mm diameter pipe and has a bilateral chain drive on the outer edge of the reel for maximum traction force. The drawbar can be hydraulically lifted from the tractor, which raises the front wheels off the ground, ensuring a very tight turning circle without screwing of the wheels.

This Monsun principle is unique in that its designed to reduce handling time to a minimum. The tractor basically drives forward into the crop with the irrigator so its in the desired pull-out position, which avoids having to drive around the machine or around the field, says Grimme irrigation systems marketing manager Ralph Powell.

The Primus Range offers the same innovative features as the Monsun but has a 500m reel with a 110mm diameter pipe.

Mr Powell says that the units are supplied with a shut-off valve, by pass valve for speed regulation and mechanical safety and a shut-off bilateral water inlet. The electronic control system is telephone compatible. The rain gun has a three-wheel trolley with offset arm for laying out the pipe.

For lay flat the hydraulically driven reel unit allows for quick and effortless handling of the chosen lengths of pipe. Reels can be interchanged with a quick release spring catch.

The pump units are fully bunded and the engine is completely enclosed and complies with all EU legislation.

Key features include:

Beinlichs friendly control and engine protection panel

Semi auto electric primer

Tray under engine to catch any spilt engine oil/water

Super silent acoustic cabinet

Water meter with no flow/high flow sensor

80mm check and non-return valve

Fully bunded fuel tank complying with latest regulations
