Kondinin Group has seen many forms of PWM, such as Case IH with its AIMS Command on its Patriot sprayers, but the technology has only been available self-propelled sprayers.

However Ace Pump has introduced four new pump models with integrated PWM control valves which mean they can be used on trailed sprayers.

The popular 150 series and larger 205 series pumps with PWM are available in cast-iron and stainless steel models. The integrated PWM valve includes a pressure relief valve which prevents over-speeding of the hydraulic motor.

The new pumps have been specifically designed for use with closed center or pressure compensating hydraulic systems.

The new pumps include:

  • integrated proportional 12-volt control valve for precision agriculture applications
  • Integrated pressure relief valve to prevent over speeding
  • Chemical resistant, thermoplastic impeller
