Introduction

Valtra S232 Row-Crop Tractor

The Valtra S232 is a high-horsepower row-crop tractor manufactured by Valtra between 2008 and 2011. Designed for heavy-duty agricultural operations, it belongs to the S-series and features a focus on high-capacity performance and operator efficiency.

Engine and Power

The tractor is powered by an 8.4-liter, 6-cylinder turbocharged intercooled diesel engine. It generates a rated power of 237 hp at 2200 RPM, with a maximum power output of 266 hp. The engine delivers a peak torque of 874 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, providing the necessary pulling force for demanding field tasks.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The S232 utilizes a continuously variable transmission (CVT), which provides infinite forward and reverse gears. This allows for precise speed control without shifting, optimizing engine efficiency for varying load conditions. The tractor is equipped with four-wheel drive to ensure maximum traction, complemented by hydraulic wet disc brakes and power steering.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system features a closed-center load-sensing configuration with a pump flow capacity of 52.8 gpm. This setup supports between 4 and 6 rear valves and up to 2 front valves. The rear hitch is a category IV/III type with a lift capacity of 26,455 lbs, while the optional front hitch provides an additional 11,023 lbs of lift capacity.

Operator Environment

The machine comes standard with an enclosed cab featuring integrated air conditioning to maintain operator comfort during long work intervals. The controls are designed for ease of use, keeping in line with the industrial standards of its production period.

Conclusion

The Valtra S232 is engineered for large-scale farming operations requiring high-capacity hydraulic and draft performance. Its combination of a high-torque engine, infinitely variable transmission, and significant lift capabilities makes it a robust choice for heavy tillage and large-implement management.
