Lemken's Albatross sprayers have been refined for ease of use and safety.
 LEMKEN'S successful Albatros sprayer range has been updated to gain even more convenience and operator safety. The range offers farmers a professional and well-equipped trailed field sprayer with five different tank sizes from 2,200-6,200 litres and boom widths from 15-39m.
    The Albatross perfectly meets all demands to guarantee efficient and effective pest control. Operation and handling of the Albatros trailed field sprayer has been further improved. At the same time, Lemken has followed farmers' demands for increased operator safety.
    All spray functions can now be logically and clearly adjusted via a revised operation centre. Single lever operation, of the suction and pressure functions, make it simple and efficient to control. Similar to the EuroTrain range, one lever selects from where the pump takes liquid, the other, to where it sends it. A cover protects the operating area on the left hand side from contamination. A fresh water tank is situated near the cover.
The integrated foldable storage area provides a convenient location for a measuring jug. A separate compartment for the storage of overalls, mask, gloves and other items, is located in the redesigned electro-hydraulic operation box on the right hand side of the machine.
    A new mast, for adjustment of boom height, allows an increased range of tyre and wheel sizes to be fitted. Thanks to the series of holes, the boom transport height can now be variably adjusted to suit the tyre size. This, in turn, offers a lower centre of gravity and leads to increased stability on the road.
    Also revealed is the new tank design. The improved tank now has the same smooth and easy to clean surface inside and out. Thanks to the mirror-smooth inner surface, less rinsing water is required for cleaning than with conventional tanks.
    Finally, the Albatros range has been re-branded, bringing it into line with Lemken's standard colour and product denomination. Blue tank, silver chassis, and red wheel rims, become standard features. Type 9 enters the name, denoting the electronic control of the machine. Hence, the 4,000-litre model is now known as the Albatros 9/4000.
