Design and manufacture of agricultural and industrial equipment
Flame Weeder Straddle Version
Flame Weeder Straddle Version
The diffusers are mounted on a tubular frame designed and adaptable to the front of the straddle. The height of the diffusers is hydraulically adjustable. The two diffusers have a working width of Ø50 cm each. Perfectly adapted and designed for row crops (vineyards, nurseries, etc.), the heat diffusers retract in front of an obstacle and return to their initial position. The carrier can transport 2 racks of 4 P35 bottles, i.e. 280 kg of gas.
Important : The agricultural versions have the particularity of being able to perform three operations:
“Désherbage Epamprage et Effeuillage”
Performance table
Fuel | Propane gas phase |
Width of treatment | 40 to 50 cm per diffuser |
Forward speed | 2 to 3 km/h |
Operating pressure | 0.8 to 1,2 bar |
Empty weight | 326 kg |
Loaded weight of propane | 760 kg (2x 4 bottles P35) |
Autonomy | 20 h (or 7 Kg/h per diffuser) |
Working power | 60 to 95 kw/diffuser (pressure 0.8 to 1.5 bar) |
Calculation of the efficiency for a heat treatment:
Feed speed (m/h) x treatment width (m) = m²/h
Calculation : 2500 x 0.4 = 1000m²/h for 1 diffuser (i.e. 2000m²/h for 2 diffusers)
Quantity of gas | 280kg |
Operating time | 20h |
Treated area | 2000m²/h |
Total area treated with 280kg of gas | 10 to 12 ha ** |
Treatment cost for a professional about 1€/kg excl. | 24€/ha ** |
**Example. for a vine planted at 2 metres
