Introduction
AGCO DT240A Row-Crop Tractor
The AGCO DT240A is a heavy-duty row-crop tractor produced between 2005 and 2008 in Beauvais, France. It is engineered for large-scale agricultural operations requiring high power output and precision guidance capabilities.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder Sisu Diesel engine with an 8.4-liter displacement. This turbocharged and intercooled unit produces 290 horsepower at a rated engine speed of 2200 RPM. It utilizes a liquid-cooling system and complies with Tier II emission standards, featuring a thermostart pre-heating system for cold-start reliability.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Power is transferred through the PowerMaxx CVT, a continuously variable transmission that provides infinite forward and reverse speed control across two ranges. The machine features a four-wheel-drive system to maximize traction in field conditions, complemented by hydraulic wet disc brakes and hydrostatic power steering for operational control.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is a closed-center pressure flow compensated (PFC) setup, delivering a total flow of 39 gpm (147.6 lpm) at a system pressure of 2900 psi. It is equipped with 4 or 5 valves to manage implements. The rear hitch is a Category III type, providing a lift capacity of 14,400 lbs (6,531 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift point.
Operator Environment and Technology
The standard cab includes compatibility with advanced precision farming tools, specifically Datatronics 3, Fieldstar, and Auto-Guide systems. An optional pneumatic suspension for the cab is available to enhance operator comfort during extended field hours.
Conclusion
With a shipping weight of 19,951 lbs and a wheelbase of 121 inches, the AGCO DT240A is designed for heavy-duty traction and precision agriculture. Its combination of high hydraulic capacity, CVT transmission, and integrated technology suites makes it a robust solution for demanding row-crop farming tasks.
