Valtra will take the BH HiTech series of tractors and the A2019 and A4s lines to the Coopavel 4 Rural Show for the first time. The event will be held in Cascavel (PR), between the 4th and 8th of February. The brand will also promote the launch of the BS3330H sprayer in Paraná, which offers farmers productivity, savings and versatility for different soil conditions and topography.
"We are starting at Coopavel what promises to be a great year for all agribusiness verticals. It is a privilege to be able to present a major launch at the event, as well as bringing to the state for the first time machines already renowned in the tractor market. Paraná producers will have the opportunity to see our brand's cutting-edge technology up close", comments Valtra's Sales Manager, Júnior Rodrigues.
BS3330H sprayer
The new equipment hits the market in the 3.000 liter segment and has the best spray bar on the market, with 24 and 30 meter options. The BS3330H brings a new spray bar concept, favoring robustness and stability, for better distribution and deposition of drops. It is the only equipment on the market approved to work on half booms, in the 24 meter option, favoring crops with less transit space.
Another of the main novelties is the frame with a roller pendulum system. It is a double-action cylinder, which acts on the frame's pendulum and ensures that the bar remains stable, ensuring a uniform height between the spray fan and the target to receive the application.
The new spray bar also comes with developments that provide more protection and durability to the equipment. Horizontal suspension transfers the load between the bars and improves the machine's stability. The multidirectional release of the 3-meter bar tip prevents possible impacts during work from damaging the bar. To avoid waste, the BS3330H has ProStop pneumatic valves, which activate instantly, with a response time of 0,8 seconds.
The BS3330H has a flexible chassis and low operating weight, which benefits work in different soil and topography conditions, and a 200 hp AGCO Power engine, which provides savings of up to 50% in fuel consumption compared to other competitors in the category. . In addition, the new sprayer has models with a clearance of 1,50 to 1,65 meters, 4x4 traction and flexible chassis, which also contribute to the sprayer's high performance on any terrain. It can be equipped with the Auto-Guide 3000 autopilot, available in two levels of precision – decimeter and centimeter –, being able to guarantee the equipment precise application without waste.
Check out other Valtra highlights at the Rural Coopavel 2019 Show:
BH HiTech Series Tractors – The BH HiTech series features the HiTech3 PowerShift transmission with automatic shifting within groups, with 18 forward and 18 reverse speeds. The Powershift transmission can be operated manually with speed changes using buttons or through one of the two automatic programming modes, which change the speed automatically, according to the pre-defined speed. The HiTech3 transmission stands out in operations that require gear changes, maintaining high productivity in the field and with the simplicity that is characteristic of the entire BH and BH HiTech Line. Another highlight is the electro-hydraulic Power Shuttle reverser, which allows driving directions to be changed using a lever, without the need to activate the clutch. The transition is always made smoothly, quickly and with protection, where only below 2 km/h does the system reverse the direction of the machine. The BH HiTech series is made up of the BH144 (145 hp), BH154 (159 hp) and BH184 (180 hp) models with 4-cylinder engines and the BH174 (179 hp) and BH194 (195 hp) models with 6-cylinder engines.

Equipped with a 4-cylinder AGCO Power electronic engine, the tractors deliver high performance, with lower fuel consumption and low maintenance costs. The models also have iEGR technology to reduce pollutant emissions, in accordance with Proconve MAR-1 regulations, and the facilitating HiShift system with the option of activating the clutch using a button strategically positioned on the gear lever.
A4s Series Tractors – The A4s line, available in models A74S, A84S and A94S, symbolizes practicality for the farmer. The AGCO Power engine provides the necessary torque for all activities in the field and the 12x12 transmissions with mechanical or electro-hydraulic reversal represent high performance. The machines are equipped with Super Creeper, which provides 24x24 transmission for all versions.
