pto hydraulic pump for vacuum planter quotation

It mounts easily to any planter and, depending which pump size is purchased, will provide an extra 12 gpm to 40 gpm as well as 4 to 6 additional ports.

Many producers wanting to upgrade or upsize their air seeders discover they are lacking hydraulic capacity on their current tractor, and don’t have room in their machinery budget to upgrade their tractor.

One solution is the Command HydraBoost PTO-driven auxiliary hydraulic system, these can operate a portion of the hydraulic flow requirement, allowing producers to continue using their favourite tractor! These units come in several sizes, the larger sizes - 24gpm, 32 gpm & 40 gpm are used in combination with air seeders.

You"d really need to get down to the flow/pressure specs needed for your planter and compare them to the IH planter"s you"re looking at robbing if you go that route. They"d need to be within the same range.

I guess the question I"d be asking or wondering about is why you wouldn"t just run it off the SCV"s on a new tractor if you"re doing that now. Most 1/2" valves flow about 16 GPM per pair. The Ford shouldn"t have any problem doing that if the planter is using most of it"s flow. The problem you get into on the open center Ford"s is when you try to choke them down and they have to dump a significant portion of their pump flow at pressure across the unloading valve...

You might also want to double check and see if the 7740 isn"t a CCLS tractor to start with... Many, if not most around here were. If it"s an "SLE" with the 16x16 transmission, or even a 24x24, it should be CCLS. A 12x12 or the 8x2 would be open center. Those are "SL" and "S" models. The "SLE" will have no problem doing what you want in running the planter on the SCV.

Another option I"d look at would be PTO driving the fan. The planter I use is set up like that and just geared to run the tractor at mid-speed on the PTO. Something to think about...

I have a JD 7200 vacuum planter. The question is can I run this planter with a 7045? The manual says that my 7050 has open-center hydros, but the 7045 has closed center. The book said I need closed-center hydros to run the planter. It does not have the pto pump.

I"m not an authority here but sure they have same hyd system. I think the hyd system will be marginal if even work on that planter.Brother in law said his 4840 Deere didn"t have enough hydraulics for one of those.Deere lists a whole hyd system add on for pto pump. $$$$$$$ He said they rented a 12-30 7200 vac and it was terrible slow lifting. I was looking at one last year for my 8070 and wasn"t liking info I was getting from Deere dealer on hydraulic setup. I really don"t know the answer but you may find out the hard way?

Is there NO other way to run these planters? I did not realize a 7200 was a vac planter, I thought they were a "slightly"updated 7000. Apparently more updated than I thought,LOL!

I have converted two 7200 planters over to using a 1000 rpm CIH pump and put a cooler in the return line to keep the oil cool. I also put a jumper line from the high pressure side to the low pressure side with a needle valve to regulate the oil flow to the vacuum blower for vacuum control. Works very well.

I don"t know how the two tractors would compare but I ran a 12 row 1760 JD vac planter with a deere 4440 and had plenty of hydraulics for raise and lower, markers, and meters. This was using just the tractor hydraulics with no external pump and didn"t need high RPMs on endrows.

May need to look into a case drain on the return. Try calling JO Harris in Illinois they handle a huge number of planters might have ideas on a PTO pump.

If I remember correctly, the vac blower on the JD planters only uses 3 or 4 gallon a minute (at maximum speed), I don"t know if you have one or two blowers (4 or 8 GPM max) since they potentially could have been setup either way. Works best if you have a flow control handle under the seat and use that remote to run the vac fan and adjust your vac level that way. As for a PTO pump setup, one off a White planter would work too. 7200 could have either a vac meter or a finger meter system. If running the fan off the tractor hydraulics though, make sure to move the control lever to float to stop the fan if you don"t have an overrunning circuit to allow the fan to stop. Otherwise it will snap the shaft off on the fan motor with it locking in the hold position. Another way to plumb it, if it doesn"t have the overrunning feature, is to put a check valve from the pressure line to the return line that allows oil to the pressure line, but not to the return line. Then when you put the lever in hold, the check valve will open and allow the fan to coast to a stop. Most likely the fan has the overrunning valve installed if previously powered from the tractor, but doesn"t hurt to mention it to avoid an expensive oops.Edited by wayne IA - 13 Dec 2017 at 8:48pm

7050 has the same hydraulic system as the 7045. Closed Center Pressure and flow compensated. I think I"ve read on here before that the PTO pump is still preferred as running the tractor hydraulic pump constantly is hard on it. I could be wrong about that last part but I"m not wrong on what type of hydraulic system a 7050 has.

Any 7 or 8 thousand series tractor should run it. Having a hydraulic oil cooler on the tractor is best. Make sure stand by pressure and high pressure is up to high end of spec. Darrel

No, a 7200 could be either vac or finger pickup, just depends how it was ordered. You can run a vac planter with a PTO pump if the tractor doesn"t have the hydraulic capacity. Imo the vac units are a lot simpler setup then a finger pickup unit.

Features may include:Seed variable-rate drive provides the ultimate planting productivitySeed variable-rate drive provides the ultimate planting productivity by utilizing one, two, or three hydraulic motors (varies by model) to turn the seeding drive shaft. Hydraulic control of the seeding drive allows for on-the-go seeding rate changes right from the display mounted inside the tractor cab. Combine this seeding flexibility with the map-based planting option, and seeding rates adjust automatically based on the prescribed map.Variable-rate drive offers the following advantages over common, ground, or contact-tire drive systems:Rate changes are almost instantaneous; no ramp up or ramp down of system as in some competitive systemsPermits the producer to match seed population based on different soil types or irrigation practicesJohn Deere design provides added operator safety by eliminating any possible drive creep found in some competitive variable-rate drive systemsSingle- or dual-motor systems for variable-rate drives are available for all John Deere planters except the 1785 Rigid Frame. Variable-rate drive is available as a factory-installed option for all applicable planter models.Single- or dual-motor systems are available as field-installed attachments for most planter models; however, a three-motor variable-rate drive field-installed attachment is not available.Seed variable-rate drive requires the SeedStar™ monitor and a radar input signal. Either tractor or planter radar may be used. Planter radar is ordered separately.Vacuum systemVacuum is created by a hydraulically driven vacuum blower assembly mounted on the planter frame. The vacuum blower requires a tractor with a closed-center hydraulic system and a separate selective control valve (SCV). For tractors with open-center hydraulic system, a vacuum 540-rpm or 1000-rpm power take-off (PTO) driven hydraulic pump system is available. PTO pumps offered from the factory are limited to 15-row applications or less.Different vacuum levels are required depending on the crop being planted. A hydraulic control valve lets the operator regulate vacuum blower speed, changing the vacuum level. On late-model John Deere tractors, vacuum levels are set from the tractor seat using the SCV controls. The control valve is not needed in those applications. At full flow, the system flows up to 18.9 L/min (5 gpm) per motor.Convenient vacuum gauges located on the planter hitch give a visual indication of the vacuum level. When using a SeedStar™ monitor, the vacuum level can be displayed on the monitor. Consult the vacuum metering seed charts in the operator"s manual for initial vacuum setting recommendations.All planters with vacuum metering systems have case drain motors on the vacuum blowers. Case drain lines will have a flush-face case drain coupler on the planter and will require a corresponding flush-face case drain coupler on the tractor. The flush-face coupler simplifies implement attachment by allowing operators to easily identify the case drain. The unique hose tip is unable to connect to another coupler on the tractor, ensuring the correct setup.

PTO-driven hydraulic vacuum pumpThis attachment allows using the vacuum seed meter system pump with tractors having an open-center hydraulic system and/or a 540-rpm or 1000-rpm PTO.

Flat seed disks such as edible bean and sweet corn require high levels of vacuum. These disks require a dual vacuum motor configuration on planters over 8 rows. The 1000-rpm PTO pump is not adequate for this application.

The MaxEmerge family of row-units have never seen a more versatile and efficient design until the MaxEmerge 5. The 5-family row-units improve productivity, increase uptime and lower the cost of ownership like never before.

The vacuum meter system gently pulls and holds individual seeds to the holes of the seed disk for population control and spacing accuracy, equaling better crop stands and profit. Vacuum seed meters can plant a wide variety of crops and seed types by simply changing seed disks and adjusting vacuum level. Vacuum seed meters are available for planters with MaxEmerge 5 row-units.

The MaxEmerge 5 meter shape has also been redesigned for better seed flow. The mini-hopper design allows the planter to successfully operate on side hills up to 14 degrees.

Both the MaxEmerge 5 vacuum meters are equipped with a heavy-duty hub spring and disk latching handle. The spring ensures the seed disk stays properly positioned when operating flat-style seed disks and higher vacuum levels. Proper seed disk positioning means repeatable seed singulation, time after time. The disk-latching handle is designed for easy operation and effortless seed disk changeover. The hub is also machined to tight tolerances to further ensure alignment of metering components.

The vacuum seed meter is capable of operating at faster planting speeds than mechanical meters. However, planting accuracy will be influenced by seedbed conditions and the operating characteristics of the seed meter. Rough seedbeds and fast planting speeds (above 8.9 km/h [5.5 mph]) typically deteriorate seed placement accuracies when using seed tube technology.

The chart illustrates the effect operating speed has on population when using the vacuum meter. The operating band (color area) illustrates how the vacuum meter performs in relation to the desired population (indicated by horizontal line). The width of the band is due to various sizes and shapes of seeds and planting rate variations.

When operating on slopes above 15 degrees, increased or decreased population may result. To minimize this effect, reduce speed and consider using a flat style seed disk with increased vacuum level.

The ProMAX 40 Flat Disk utilizes flat holes and a higher vacuum level to ensure every hole is populated with a seed. A double eliminator gently removes multiple seeds at each hole for precise population control. A knockout wheel makes certain that each hole is clear of any debris after the seed is released from the disk.

The unique cell disk design allows planting a variety of seed sizes without any additional parts or individual meter adjustments. Another advantage of cell-type seed disks is the lower vacuum requirement compared to flat-style seed disks. Lower vacuum levels mean less hydraulic demand from the tractor. Most planting conditions call for a flat disk, if you are limited in hydraulic capacity, cell disks are recommended.

For difficult to singulate seeds, a flat seed disk and double eliminator is a viable alternative to traditional cell-type seed disks. By design, a flat seed disk requires higher levels of vacuum than a cell-type disk because there is no pocket or cell to hold the seed. The higher vacuum level will pull more than one seed to the holes in the seed disk. The double eliminator is set to cover a portion of the hole in the seed disk and is the mechanism to knock multiple seeds away as the disk rotates.

NOTE: Due to small seed size and low planting populations, sugar beets can be planted with mini-hopper style meters by adding hopper extensions and not using the CCS tank. These hopper extensions can also be used for planting test plots.

There are significant changes to the MaxEmerge 5 Mini-Hopper. One update is the straight feed from the Central Commodity System (CCS™) hose to the mini-hopper to ensure a continuous free flow of seeds. This design change reduces the potential for plugging issues with larger seed size and the use of seed treatments. By drawing air from the CCS tank the vacuum source is now cleaner, preventing meter debris buildup.

The row-unit head is also designed using the ductile iron-casting process. The row-unit head provides the mating joints between the row-unit parallel arms and the row-unit shank. It is also the upper attaching point for the seed meter and seed hopper.

The MaxEmerge 5 row-unit also provides better Tru-Vee opener bearings for longer life. The double-row ball bearing provides up to three times the wear life as the single-row bearing.

John Deere planters provide consistent seed depth control in all field conditions. Depth control is a function of the Tru-Vee openers, the downforce system, and the gauge wheel assembly.

The bolt-through design utilizes an open bearing in the gauge wheel that allows an attaching bolt to pass through the wheel to the threaded hole in the gauge wheel arm. This simple bolt-through design provides for a positive attachment of the gauge wheel to the gauge wheel arm and allows quick removal of the gauge wheel for service.

Rubber tire closing systems are used for most conventional, minimum-till, and no-till planting conditions. The spacing between the wheels is adjustable so the closing system can meet the needs of those who want to plant small seeds at shallow depths.

The wheels can also be staggered fore and aft to enhance residue flow. Four levels of spring force are available and are easily set with the integrated T-handle adjustment. A lower force spring can be obtained from parts, if a lower amount of force is required.
