Introduction
Schluter Super-Trac 1600 TVL: Technical Overview
The Schluter Super-Trac 1600 TVL is a heavy-duty agricultural tractor produced between 1982 and 1988. Designed for demanding field operations, it represents the high-power segment of its era, combining robust mechanical engineering with significant hydraulic and lifting capabilities.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine (model SDMT 112 W 6) with a displacement of 7.4 liters (450.9 ci). It produces a rated power of 165 hp (123.0 kW) at 2000 RPM. The engine is characterized by a peak torque of 673.1 Nm (496.4 lb-ft) achieved at 1300 RPM, providing the necessary low-end lugging ability required for heavy traction tasks.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The Super-Trac 1600 TVL utilizes a 4x4 4WD system, ensuring traction across various soil conditions. The transmission features 12 forward gears and 5 reverse gears, offering a wide range of speeds to suit diverse agricultural implements. The steering is assisted by a hydrostatic power system, which reduces operator effort during frequent maneuvering, while drum brakes provide the necessary stopping power.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system provides a total flow capacity of 46.2 lpm (12.2 gpm). The rear hitch is designed for heavy-duty applications, offering a standard lift capacity of 6,201 kg (13,671 lbs), with an optional configuration capable of reaching 8,401 kg (18,522 lbs). The rear PTO operates at dual speeds of 540 and 1000 RPM to accommodate various types of equipment.
Dimensions and Chassis
This tractor is built on a wheelbase of 294 cm (116.1 inches), contributing to its overall length of 565 cm (222.8 inches) and height of 326 cm (128.7 inches). It is equipped with 18.4R38 agricultural tires on both the front and rear axles, which help distribute the machine's weight and maintain stability during field work.
Conclusion
