In current times, save a lot of money on fuel is a chance that must not be overlooked. Case ih has adapted to the new emissions regulation to ensure that fuel economy is one of the main functions of the engine, without losing power. In this way, brand has presented on a tour for Andalucía and Castilla La Mancha their Efficient Power engines.

Case IH was the month of April a tour called Demo Tour Efficient Power EP 2011. Such an event led to members of the trade mark to go different estates in Castile - La Mancha and Andalucia, where the brand customers could see live demonstrations of the ability to do his job "in an efficient way with Efficient Power Technology" tractors Case.

Case IH clients had the opportunity to test the tractors with the Efficient Power engine.

The tour ended in Alcaracejos, in the Cordoba meadow, in a farm located in three townships; Hinojosa del Duque, Bélmez and Villanueva del Duque, dotted with Oaks of more than 115 hectares of cereal and owned by Theodore Sepúlveda - the official concessionaire Case IH Sermasur - Manager. The own Sepúlveda noted that "Sermasur stands in the province and beyond for its service for those who demand more". In addition, added that "a farmer or rancher in campaign always continue with a Case IH".

A success of call

More than 300 people attended the invitation of the brand and Sermasur, Hnos. Alegre, agricultural machinery official dealers of Badajoz, Tecnibarros and Agrocamión. According to representatives of the brand, "the customer is was very satisfied." "They did not expect find the size, robustness and easy handling of the 340 Magnum, as well as his plough Lemken, Smaragd, of more than 10 meters wide".

Case IH clients attended a presentation of product in the tent of the estate of Alcaracejos.

Another tractor that could see in the proof of Case was the Puma CLC 13th, noted for simplicity in their management. Farmers and ranchers, as with the rest of tractors, waiting their turn to to get and try out the new technology of the brand.

New Efficient Power of Case IH engines can save more than 4,000 euros per year to farmers

At the conclusion of the event, Xavier Autonell, CEO of Case IH, thanked all official dealers assistance with their customers. He wanted to make a special mention to Agroni, Manuel Lopez and Alejandro Buitrago of company machinery 93, Fran Márquez and Mª Angeles Corzo, Sermasur, and the entire team of Lemken, Román Florez of Gregoire, and the entire team of Herculaneum. Your help and collaboration in the Organization of each of the events, said it was "key to the success of the Demo Tour Efficient Power EP 2011".

The virtues of an efficient engine

Rafael Fresneda, director of marketing for Case IH, made a presentation exclusively for journalists from the new engine Efficient Power. The reasons for the launch of this technology are well simple. "Everything is caused by a change in the regulation of emissions, the 3rd Tier is passed to the fourth Tier, which entered into force January 1, 2011 for engines of more than 175 HP". I.e., instead of adapting to the new rules, in Case they bet on provide their own Case IH technology, which meets the Tier IV.

The aim, said Fresneda, "is to meet with the new rules of emissions, which affects the Puma and the great range those of more than 175 HP". The new rules are much more restrictive. In the previous regulations were forced to a recirculation of gases within the engine, which increases consumption and engine temperature and reduced the efficiency of the same.

Therefore, in Case IH has opted for the so-called "selective catalytic reduction", as he commented to the own Fresneda "only has a single problem, need the use of an extra fluid, the Adblue". This is a fluid which is not harmful to health, nor flammable, i.e. a synthetic solution of urea with distilled water. Which means that it is slightly corrosive, "but that a less drink Cola".

Rafael Fresneda, director of marketing for Case IH, made a presentation to journalists.

Thanks to Adblue, the engine produces power, forgets the gas recirculation, which makes them much more efficient, with a temperature adequate engine, with a much lower maintenance and efficiency of much greater consumption". In short, is that it is an engine "simpler, more efficient and more profitable for the farmer". On the other hand, this means that it produces more emissions, and there is where the Adblue, the liquid than joined the nitrous oxides produced by the engine, "give us steam of nitrogen and water vapor" after treatment in the catalyst of the tractor, prior to their expulsion to the atmosphere.

The consumption of Adblue can be a disadvantage, but Efficient Power engines are, according to Fresneda, "between 10 and 15% more efficient in fuel consumption, which means that if the Adblue consumes about 5%"", there is a margin of 10% in favour of the farmer". This means "save between 4,000 and 5,000 euros a year in a Puma CLC 200 model". In the case of the Magnum, according to Fresneda, it is even greater.
