Competitor Undercarriage VS Ours

Just looking at an engine’s horsepower isn’t enough.
You have to see how much power is delivered to the ground.

            

Competitor Undercarriage  

1.   Engine
2.   Hydraulic pump (about 2% hp loss occurs here)
3.-8.   Hydraulic block, plus each hydraulic union and fitting is a point where hydraulic pressure can be lost. Loss of pressure means loss of power (about 8% hp loss occurs here)
9.   Hydraulic wheel motors (about 5% hp loss at each wheel motor)

More horsepower is required to:

  • Lug around 3,000 to 9,500 pounds of extra weight, including four hydrostatic wheel motors and pumps.
  • Compensate for wasted power; 25-40% of the horsepower is lost before it even hits the ground.

With some hydrostat drive, power to the ground is complex and inefficient:

Apache Undercarriage  

Apache POWER-TO-the-GROUND™

A full 90 percent of Apache Sprayers horsepower is transferred to the ground, compared to 70 percent from other sprayers.  In fact, the Apache’s lighter construction provides more Power-to-the-Ground™ than competing sprayers. That way you get a lot more from your horsepower.
