Combine harvesters: the new ParaLevel models in Fendt's C series

Fendt announces the arrival of two new combine harvester models in the C series.
They are equipped with the ParaLevel slope compensation system developed by Laverda as well as SCR technology.

ParaLevel axle: a slope compensation system identical to the Laverda M400 LC Advanced

To guarantee optimal, consistent performance even on slopes, the new C series models (Fendt 5275 C PL, Fendt 6335 C PL) are fitted with the brand-new ParaLevel front axle.

It provides full compensation of the entire machine on slopes of up to 20 % and thus ensures an even distribution of the crop across the threshing, separation and cleaning systems, delivering maximum productivity and efficiency. The concept of this patented front axle is based on a parallelogram structure.

The operator can therefore choose between a working mode and a transport mode. In working mode, the increased outer width significantly improves stability and safety on slopes.

In transport mode, on the other hand, the front axle lowers as far as possible, so that even with wide tyres the overall height and width are kept to a minimum (5275 C PL with 800/65 R 32 below 3,50 m).

The reinforced final drives have also made it possible to optimise the stability and reliability of the entire front axle.

A comfortable workstation with a new electronics concept

The new large C 2000 touch terminal (10.5'') offers greater comfort. Its integration into the armrest prevents relative movement between the operator and the terminal. The terminal can be operated by touch as well as by buttons and a control dial.

The operator thus decides how to make adjustments: quickly and intuitively via the touchscreen or, on uneven ground or with dirty hands, via the buttons and the dial. The main settings can also be made via a rocker switch on the side console.

The CAN bus electronic system allows fully automatic adjustment of all the main functions. The operator simply selects the crop type on the terminal, and all necessary settings, such as threshing drum speed, concave setting, fan speed, etc., are adjusted automatically.

The terminal monitors all the functions of the combine harvester and the engine and provides details on the status of all components as well as the main working parameters.

At the same time, the system monitors all important parameters relating to shaft speeds and engine and oil temperatures, and offers a comprehensive diagnostic and warning system.

Other useful functions of the new electronics concept are the automatic adjustment of the reel speed to the forward speed, as well as a safety system for the entire threshing unit.

Exhaust gas aftertreatment with fuel-efficient SCR technology

The ParaLevel models of the C series draw their power from the 6-cylinder AGCO Sisu Power engine. With a displacement of 8,4 (6330 C PL) or 7,4 litres (5275 C PL), the CommonRail high-pressure injection system and four-valve technology, they reach a maximum output of 365 ch (6335 C PL, Power Boost included) or 275 cv (5275 C PL).

For the C series, Fendt is also relying on compliance with the 3b exhaust emissions standard (Tier IV interim) thanks to fuel-efficient SCR technology, which treats the exhaust gases with AdBlue urea solution.

The combine harvester reaches a top speed of 25 km/h at a fuel-efficient engine speed of 1.900 tr/min.
