For manufacturing Brilliant Simple machines, Agrifac deploys the “4E for growers” concept. The 4 E’s stand for: Efficiency, Economy, Ergonomics and Ecology. Every Agrifac product and innovation is developed and designed according to these 4E’s. This enables Agrifac to develop according to customer needs and stay ahead with innovative solutions.
Minimal environmental impact
Agrifac has always been at the forefront of minimising environmental impact with innovative technology. HighTechAirPlus for instance reduces water usage by up to 50%. And more recently, GreenFlowPlus for minimised residual liquids left in the spray tank, and AirFlowPlus for maximum spray penetration and reduced chemical use. As of today, the product offering of the Condor self-propelled sprayer range has been expanded with a new engine: more power but with less diesel being consumed – The Condor AdBlue. Agrifac has selected an engine that uses Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. The SCR-technology uses AdBlue as an additive fl uid that is injected into the exhaust gas system and reduces the emission of harmful NOx exhaust gasses. The main reasons for preferring SCR-technology over EGR (Exhaust Gas Reduction) technology are the compact build minus the need of diesel particle fi lters. Benefi ts of this engine are a greater engine effi ciency, less maintenance (servicing costs) and minimised ecological impact. Condor AdBlue is available with 151 kW (205 bhp) or 210 kW (285 bhp) engines. The Agrifac Condor is the fi rst self-propelled sprayer on the international market to fulfi l the Stage IIIB / Tier 4A regulations!
Choice of engine power
After thorough testing and very positive customer feedback, Agrifac introduces the new engine with two different power outputs. Both engines are sourced at the innovative specialist FPT (Fiat Powertrain Technologies). Branded Iveco, both AdBlue engines have six cylinders and 151 kW (205 bhp) or 210 kW (285 bhp). The more powerful 210 kW AdBlue engine, is especially suited for hilly conditions and situations where more power is required. This includes the 5,000 litres flagship model and the LiquidPlus model for the application of high density liquid fertilisers up to 1.6 kg/l. Both engines are available for all types of Condor models.

Coming soon: Agrifac Condor XXL
At this year’s Agritechnica, Agrifac will introduce another addition to the vastly growing Condor product portfolio: an XXL size Condor. This model will feature a lengthened 4-wheel StabiloPlus chassis, a much bigger tank and an even stronger engine. The Condor XXL will revolutionise high capacity spraying with working speeds up to 40 km/h. The bigger main tank is especially valuable for customers that have limited access to water resources. With the brilliant simple StabiloPlus chassis, the centre of gravity remains low for safe working in hilly conditions. Excellent maneuverability will be guaranteed with just four wheels and an empty weight lower than any alternative.
