The HORSCH Leeb CS offers a solution to all farmers who due to their farm structures rely on 3-point technology but do not want to do without an excellent boom control system.
When developing the HORSCH Leeb CS the objective was to combine a compact 3-point sprayer with the popular assets of the trailed HORSCH Leeb sprayers. The result is a mounted sprayer with all well-known details due to which a Leeb sprayer excels. Due to the active boom control system BoomControl the Leeb CS meets the highest requirements on application accuracy. The compact design and the intelligent coupling system guarantee a comfortable linkage.

The CCS water system guarantees a continuous inside cleaning of tank, lines and boom. The additional CCS piston diaphragm pump for cleaning pumps clean water into the spray lines, the spraying pump removes the residual mixture from nozzles and the spray lines instead of diluting it. This allows the system to be cleaned quickly, thoroughly and with an optimised water consumption – without having to get off the machine directly from the cabin – and the sprayer is completely cleaned when leaving the field. To fill the machine, a powerful rotary pump with Load Sensing is used with manual operation for the suction and pressure side.
In addition to the characteristics of the CCS system, for the CCS Pro version several cleaning programs can be started easily and comfortably at the push of a button in the cabin:
The pressure control in the system is carried out via the pump speed. The pump only conveys the amount of liquid that is required for spraying plus the defined quantity for the agitator and thus used especially energy-saving. Fresh water as well as mixture tank are equipped with an electric level indicator for automatic washing programs and an automatic switchoff.
With regard to the boom, we rely on the well-proven system consisting of parallelogram suspension and the well-proven boom control system BoomControl that guarantees an extremely smooth boom position even in very uneven terrain and with high operational speeds. The patented suspension with active control of the middle section prevents immersion during cornering and on the headlands. The weight-optimised design made of durable aluminium profiles protects nozzles, nozzle bodies and spray lines against damage. Different folding and boom options in working widths from 15 to 30 m allow for individual solutions for every farm structure.
Automatic boom control system to maintain an exact, lowest possible working height even at high operational speeds in flat or slightly hilly terrain. The safe and stable boom control system with a target height of under 40 cm ensures minimum drift. The boom adapts to the terrain via two ultrasonic sensors and is completely decoupled from the machine. No compromise between damped and freely suspended boom.
With four ultrasonic sensors BoomContro Pro can angle the boom as well as the middle section to better adapt the boom control system to uneven and slightly hilly terrain. Thus, even at high operational speeds, this version of the automatic boom control system can accurately maintain the lowest possible working height. The safe and stable boom control system with a target height of under 40 cm ensures minimum drift. Active adaption of the boom that is completely independent from the machine via the height control of the middle section.
The BoomControl extension completes the basic version with two additional sensors. The sprayer is therefore ideal for the care of ridge and row crops and for reduced working widths of the boom.
Various combination options with up to 16 different nozzle profiles can be saved – each profile can be switched on or off in the cabin. If the work is not interrupted, the optimum pressure range can be adjusted in the terminal and the corresponding nozzle size are controlled automatically continuously. Automatic adaption of the boom height depending on the chosen nozzle profiles and automatic switching between the nozzle levels. The nozzle spacings stored in the nozzle profiles serve as a basis. With more nozzles the farmer has more options to choose from.
Fully automatic AutoSelect control: Control of nozzle size or combination while at the same time adjusting the application rate and the operational speed. High comfort and safety for an optimum management of the distance along waters and structures.
Due to the pneumatic nozzle control and the pneumatic section control, it is possible to precisely switch off nozzles and sections with compressed air. Nozzle spacings of 25 cm and 50 cm are available.
Individual and intelligent application technologies allow for an optimum penetration and wetting of the population. Variable nozzle body combinations (pneumatically switchable) can also be used. All nozzles are controlled individually and are pneumatically combined in sections. This also facilitates maintenance and the easy detection and repair of errors and blockings at the nozzles. As standard, all nozzle body configurations are equipped with nozzle holders for edge nozzles. Comprehensive tests in our wind tunnel show considerable advantages with regard to the drift behaviour depending on the target height.

The swivelling induction hopper with a gas spring and a capacity of 52 l is made of stainless steel and is particularly easy to clean. The injector filling with upper and lower rinsing nozzles ensures a whirl-like circulation and is ideal for liquids as well as for granulate material. Moreover, the induction hopper is equipped with an additional shock nozzle, a stainless steel lid as well as a symbol bar with coloured control levers.
Innovative and powerful LED headlights ensure an optimum illumination with their heavily focused light which penetrates all spraying cones. Thus, the lighting system guarantees more safety and efficiency while spraying around the clock. A strong LED spotlight is installed per boom side to ensure optimum spraying control at twilight and at night as well as an overview of the nozzle function – also in section mode. The automatic light function switches off the headlights on the headlands to avoid blinding e.g., passers-by.
Optionally, NightLight can be combined with an automatic washing system that automatically cleans the lights and prevents dust from settling on the lights. Moreover, LED light strip at the induction centre as well as a LED apron lighting are available.
Hose and hose reel are fixed on the machine. Thus, dirt generated by the spraying process can be removed from the sprayer comfortably and easily in the field. Tyres and machine parts that get covered with any spraying mixture or spraying mist can be cleaned easily from dirt and mixture residues.
The additional pressure filter in the middle frame doubles the filter area available in front of the boom and no nozzle filters are required. Moreover, smaller nozzle sizes and double flat jet nozzles can be used with micro-mesh filter inserts. Sprayers that are equipped with the second pressure filter require less maintenance. Cloggings and cleaning work are reduced to a minimum.
