Introduction
Case IH Puma 215: Technical Overview
The Case IH Puma 215 is a row-crop tractor manufactured in Basildon, England, between 2011 and 2013. As part of the Puma series, this model is engineered to provide high-performance capabilities for a variety of agricultural operations, utilizing a 6.7-liter FPT turbocharged diesel engine that meets Interim Tier 4 emission standards.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder, 24-valve FPT engine with a displacement of 410.6 cubic inches (6.7 L). It delivers a rated power output of 215 hp (160.3 kW) and a maximum gross power of 260 hp (193.9 kW) at 2200 rated RPM. The engine employs selective catalytic reduction (SCR) for emission control and is liquid-cooled, ensuring stable performance under heavy load conditions.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The Puma 215 offers three transmission configurations: an 18-speed full power shift, a 19-speed full power shift with EconoGear for optimized road transport efficiency, and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). All variants feature electro-hydraulic wet disc clutches and four-wheel drive as standard, providing versatile speed management for diverse field tasks.
Hydraulics and PTO
The machine utilizes a closed-center pressure flow compensating (PFC) hydraulic system. Depending on the configuration, pump flow reaches up to 57 gpm (215.7 lpm) in optional CVT setups. The rear PTO is independent, offering selectable speeds of 540/1000 or 1000/1000E. The three-point hitch provides a standard rear lift capacity of 10,200 lbs (4,626 kg), with an optional upgrade available to 13,400 lbs (6,078 kg).
Dimensions and Operator Environment
With a wheelbase of 113.6 inches (288 cm) and an operating weight of 17,880 lbs (8,110 kg), the tractor is designed for stability. The operator station features a standard cab, with optional cab suspension available to enhance comfort during prolonged field operations. Steering is facilitated by a hydrostatic power system.
Conclusion
The Case IH Puma 215 is a robust row-crop tractor suitable for mid-to-large scale farming operations. Its combination of multiple transmission options and flexible hydraulic capacity makes it a versatile tool for heavy-duty traction and implement management.
