NEW TRADESMAN SERIES CTI
This system is designed to be super affordable. Without AIR CTI, any logging operation will be losing money. It is unaffordable to not have AIR CTI.
The Tradesman Series is a simpler system, basically comparable in features to our competitors. Suitable for tip trucks, service trucks, farm trucks, four wheel drives, and the likes, vehicles that do not work in the extreme, off camber areas that log trucks typically work. This system is ideal for older trucks, or beginners that are cash strapped too. We still believe that our Professional System is the right system for the professional logger, especially if drivers are used.
The Tradesman series uses a slightly simpler rotator, which is easier to machine, with high tech plastic parts, but still with the same carbon seals. These are excellent rotators, probably equivalent to our last series that has worked so well. The other beauty of these rotators is that different caps can be installed, to suit trucks, or trailers, or Landcruiser type vehicles.
The electronic controls are simpler, but still provide infinite pressure control. We’ve added a new feature that we call ‘auto set’. Upon start up, the system auto sets to a typical road pressure, like a pressure maintenance system, which is ideal for vehicles that are driven by several drivers. We’ve been testing this on our Suzuki Vitara for several months. This feature is great when my wife jumps in and drives to town. I don’t have to worry if she has checked and set the pressure. Plus, if she gets a puncture, it’ll be re filled automatically.
No isolator, and no quick connects, and less cost rotators. Other than that, the other components are basically identical with our Professional series. The Isolator is the main reason that the Professional system is potentially better suited when the vehicles are high and work off camber, i.e. on hills etc.
Retail prices for the Tradesman series is only AU$4,500 for a tandem drive system. Single drive truck, dual drive tyres only is AU$2,950. Four wheel drive trucks are AU$4,500 too. And, Landcruiser type 4x4’s run from AU$2,500 to AU$3,000 depending upon compressor requirements. Utes can be done for under AU$2,000. Think about how good a Falcon Out Back would be with it’s locker diff and AIR CTI. It would scare most 4x4’s in performance, and kill them in fuel economy and cost of running. Something like this would make good demo vehicles too.
Note: We have a range of 12 volt compressors from the proven VIAR 2.5 cu. ft. unit to the new Protector series that is supposed to pump 5 cfm! These retail for around AU$400 to AU$450.
