Silver Wheels Power Saving, Demand Driven Liquid System
Insta-Response™ Monitoring Controls Accurate Output

High performance, rapid response, cooler running

Load sensing hydraulics
Silver Wheels load sensing hydraulics is a major component of a completely demand driven power system. Its hydraulic pump puts out only the amount of oil called for. This requires less horsepower and creates less heat than open center hydraulic pumps which run at maximum capacity full time. The hydraulic pump works so well it can run the product pump at full capacity at a high engine idle! This works great while slowing down or speeding up or for using accessories such as chemical inductors or rinse systems.
 

High performance demand driven product pump
The product pump also operates on a demand basis, pumping only the amount of liquid required at the precise moment. An electrically operated hydraulic flow control, operated by a Raven rate controller adjusts oil flow to the product pump. The Silver Wheels demand sensing system reduces wear on both the hydraulic and the product pumps.
Insta-Response monitoring
Silver Wheels demand sensing system and the Raven rate controller combine to create an Insta-Response monitor that senses speed changes and flow requirements and corrects the output instantly! Lag time when starting each pass has been eliminated!
This combined system works so efficiently there is no need for a hydraulic oil cooler!
    
Easy access
The Silver Wheels liquid system provides easy access to all work stations including the tank lid.

Easy conversions of liquid & dry systems
With the optional quick change kit you can stand on the ground with easy access to all hydraulic, air and wire connections. All components are attached to the tank skid and lift off as one unit! With the appropriate lifting device you should be able to remove the entire liquid unit in approximately 45 minutes!

Line blowout kit & in-line screens
Optional line blow out kits and inline screens are available. Screens are easily accessible from the ground.

 

Adjustable height booms Available on the 65' & 75' booms, this feature allows the operator to move the boom assembly up or down 42" to ensure better application control.

Self-stabilizing boom
All booms are equipped with a self-stabilizing feature that keeps the boom riding level through the field. Booms also feature hydraulic accumulators on lift and tilt cylinders along with a hydraulic shock absorbing cylinder and coil tension springs on the boom breakaway system.

Sparge valve The stainless steel sparge valve is located on the tank skid and is adjustable from inside the cab.


Easy Access to primary
strainer and flow meter

Product pumps
A wide range of product pumps is available ranging from 200 to 400 gpm.
SCOT 4" x 3", 400 gpm @ 50 psi

Paint and finish
Silver Wheels goes to great lengths to keep your liquid application system looking good. Tanks, inductors and boom lines are all made of 304 stainless steel. All non-stainless steel areas are painted with a high quality acrylic urethane black.
