Introduction
Fiat 140-90: Heavy-duty agricultural tractor
The Fiat 140-90 is a high-capacity agricultural tractor produced between 1984 and 1993. Part of the 90-series, it was engineered for intensive field operations and heavy-duty traction, establishing a reputation for mechanical durability in large-scale farming environments.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is equipped with a 5.9-liter, 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. Delivering 140 hp (104.4 kW) at a rated speed of 2500 RPM, the liquid-cooled powerplant is designed for sustained performance under high loads. It features a bore and stroke of 104 x 115 mm, providing the necessary torque for demanding agricultural applications.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 140-90 offers multiple transmission configurations to suit various operational requirements, including 24-speed synchronized, 16-speed mechanical shuttle, and partial power shift systems. These transmissions, utilizing a hydraulic 356mm cerametallic dry disc clutch, provide up to 24 forward and 8 reverse gears. The drivetrain includes planetary final drives and hydrostatic differential locks on both front and rear axles to maximize traction.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system operates at a pressure of 2489 psi (171.6 bar) with a pump flow capacity of 15.4 gpm (58.3 lpm), supporting up to three remote valves. The rear hitch, featuring both position and draft control, provides a lift capacity of 14,660 lbs (6649 kg). Independent PTO systems are standard, with the rear PTO offering 540/1000 RPM and the front PTO providing 1000 RPM, both managed by electro-magnetic and hydraulic wet disc clutches.
Dimensions and Operator Environment
With a wheelbase of 105.12 inches and a total weight of 14,266 lbs, the tractor is built for stability. The operator station consists of a standard cab equipped with heating, with air conditioning available as an optional feature to improve ergonomics during long working hours. The machine is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations.
Conclusion
The Fiat 140-90 is a robust, versatile machine suited for heavy tillage and large-scale implement management. Its combination of high-capacity hydraulics, flexible transmission options, and substantial lift capacity makes it a reliable choice for professional agricultural operations requiring consistent power and traction.
