Harrier Series
Since its launch Househam’s high-capacity Harrier self-propelled sprayer has been a firm favourite among operators facing demanding workloads. The Harrier has been developed specifically to meet the needs of professional operators. Househam’s engineers worked closely with customers to deliver a high-output sprayer that places performance, efficiency and comfort at the heart of its design.
Performance
The Harrier is built on single-piece, low-weight chassis that gives the sprayer a low centre of gravity and even weight distribution, ensuring it remains stable on the most challenging terrain
Careful engineering has kept unladen weight of the whole machine to just 8500kg and A-frame axles offer generous 1.1m ground clearance for minimising crop damage.
For increased productivity and efficiency, the sprayer is fitted as standard with a four-cylinder Altek pump, and there’s the option of 4,000-, 5,000- or 6000-litre tanks in either GRP or stainless steel. A 30-litre stainless steel induction hopper ensures fast and efficient filling and the fully-enclosed spray pack means there’s minimal exposed pipework.
Control
The Househam ‘in house’ designed TMC (Total Machine Control) integrates many functions into one simple to use touchscreen console. TMC provides you with complete application rate control, engine management and diagnostics, hydrostatic drive control and monitoring, built-in warnings and fault detection, and automatic service reminders.
The TMC is the main interface for setting up the spraying system and features Househam’s Spray Pilot auto steering and NavGuide GPS mapping system. Together, these offer precise control of application rate for improved accuracy and reduced overspray, particularly in irregularly shaped fields.
Spraying
Wide choice of booms with a dual-fold 13/24m option and tri-fold up to 36m.
Our hydraulic incline feature enables you to incline one boom while still using the other, making it easy to spray around obstacles and adjust the boom to the terrain’s contours.
Optional NORAC height control also ensures the boom is kept in the optimum position for effective application.
Individual Nozzle Control (INC) and Auto Nozzle Select (ANS) also offer improved accuracy and reduced overspray, particularly in irregularly shaped fields with individual nozzles activated electronically either automatically or manually from the cab.
