| RoGator is a breath of fresh air |
 AGCO’s Challenger RoGator 600 is the first farm machine ever to achieve a Category 4 * rating for its cab air quality. The accolade comes as part of an ENTAM test, in which the machine scored top marks in many categories. To achieve EN ISO 15695-1 and EN ISO 15695-2 standards the cab must be tested and proven to protect operators from dust, aerosols and vapours with an air delivery and filter system. “We started with the advantage of having the high quality, pressurised cabin from the MT tractor range. We have made few modifications to this apart from sealing the back window and increasing the airflow. Obviously, with a sealed and pressurised environment it is imperative the fan has the capacity to pull in sufficient air and the structure allows it to exit easily,” says Hubertus von Dungern, Product Marketing Application Equipment Manager. An important addition to the system is the special filter that cleans the air to the standard demanded for the Category 4 rating. “It is in this crucial area where our engineers have overcome the technical challenge of not only cleaning the air, but using a filter that still provides sufficient airflow,” he explains. “Now RoGator 600 operators benefit from breathing the cleanest, freshest air available on any farm machine.” Two new features were introduced on the RoGator 600 ‘B’ models, at the Agritechnica Show in Hanover. The six-cylinder models - the 223hp, RG 645 ‘B’ and 242hp, RG 655 ‘B’ are now equipped with the latest SCR technology, which combines exceptional fuel economy with exhaust emissions that meet the strict Stage 3b regulations. Also new is the ISOBus compliant C3000 control terminal, which offers easy to use operation and a large, clear screen and provides a wide range of functions including high-accuracy positioning and guidance, auto-section control, variable rate applications combined with detailed mapping, logging and versatile information management. * Category 4: ‘Reducing the quantity of dusts, as specified in 3.2 EN 15695-2:2009, aerosols in 3.3 EN 15695-2:2009 and vapours in 3.4 EN 15695-2:2009’. |
