Introduction
Valtra Q285: Technical Overview of the Row-Crop Tractor
The Valtra Q285, introduced in 2022, is a high-performance row-crop tractor developed by Valtra, a division of AGCO. This machine is engineered for intensive agricultural operations, combining significant power output with advanced transmission and hydraulic systems to support demanding fieldwork.
Engine and Powertrain
The tractor is powered by an AGCO Power 74 LFTN-D5 7.4-liter, 6-cylinder turbocharged intercooled diesel engine. It complies with Stage V emission standards and delivers a rated power of 281.6 hp (210.0 kW), with a maximum power reaching 409 hp (305.0 kW). The engine produces a torque of 944.1 lb-ft (1280.2 Nm) at 1500 RPM. Power is transmitted via a continuously-variable transmission (CVT), which provides infinite forward and reverse speeds for precise operational control.
Hydraulics and Hitching
The Q285 features a closed-center load-sensing hydraulic system designed for high-flow requirements. The main pump flow is rated at 52.8 gpm (199.8 lpm). Operators can utilize 4 or 5 rear hydraulic valves and 2 to 4 front valves. The rear lift capacity is 21,356 lbs (9,687 kg), while the optional front hitch provides a lift capacity of 9,442 lbs (4,282 kg).
Dimensions and Operator Environment
This four-wheel-drive tractor has a wheelbase of 120.1 inches (305 cm) and an operating weight of 20,283 lbs (9,200 kg), with a maximum permissible weight of 35,274 lbs (16,000 kg). The cab comes standard with an air-conditioning system to ensure operator comfort. It is equipped with standard agricultural tires sized 600/70R30 at the front and 710/70R42 at the rear.
Conclusion
The Valtra Q285 is designed for heavy-duty agricultural tasks that require high torque, versatile hydraulic control, and the seamless speed management provided by a CVT. Its robust weight-to-power ratio and comprehensive hitching options make it a suitable choice for large-scale row-crop farming.
