Marani ITS100B Hydraulic Drive Hard Hose Irrigator

Overview

The Marani ITS100B is a heavy-duty hydraulic drive hard hose irrigator engineered by Marani Irrigazione, an Italian manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing high-performance agricultural irrigation machinery. Designed specifically for large-scale field irrigation, the ITS100B combines robust mechanical construction with a fully hydraulic operating system, enabling efficient and largely automated water distribution across extensive plots with minimal operator intervention. The machine is tractor-powered via a power take-off connection and uses a hydraulic circuit to drive all major functions — from reel retraction to turntable rotation and lifting operations — making it a highly capable solution for demanding irrigating requirements.

What distinguishes the ITS100B within the Marani range is its focus on delivering outstanding coverage capacity without compromising ease of use or cost-effectiveness. With polyethylene hose diameters ranging from 125 mm to 160 mm (4.92 in to 6.30 in) and hose lengths extending to 890 m (2,920 ft), this irrigator is purpose-built for plots of noteworthy dimensions. The machine ships with the Computer Aqua System as standard, offering precise control over irrigation cycles. A 4-speed synchronised gearbox paired with a turbine flanged directly onto the gearbox provides reliable hydraulic drive, while the hot-galvanised chassis and reel ensure long-term durability even in corrosive field environments. Compatible with both the EXPLORER and LANCER raingun systems, the ITS100B offers growers the flexibility to tailor water application intensity and throw radius to their specific crop and field geometry requirements.

Key Features & Benefits

• Fully Hydraulic Operating System: All major machine functions — including trolley lifting, turntable rotation, telescopic feet, and drawbar lifting — are operated hydraulically via rapid couplings to the tractor, reducing manual effort and increasing operational efficiency across large irrigating runs.
• 4-Speed Synchronised Gearbox: The four synchronised speed gearbox allows the operator to precisely match the hose retraction speed to the required application rate, ensuring consistent water distribution uniformity regardless of field conditions or pressure variation.
• Turbine Flanged on Gearbox with Double Built-In By-Pass: The direct-flange turbine mounting eliminates intermediate connections and reduces mechanical losses, while the integrated double by-pass protects the system from pressure surges and allows fine-tuned flow management during operation.
• Computer Aqua System (Standard): The onboard Computer Aqua System automates and monitors the irrigation cycle, delivering reliable control over retraction timing and water application — a significant operational advantage when managing large or multiple field sections.
• Hot-Galvanised Chassis and Reel: The entire chassis and reel structure undergoes hot galvanisation, providing superior corrosion resistance compared to paint alone. This is complemented by safety guards constructed from swaged galvanised and painted steel for a consistently durable finish.
• Hose Retraction by Double Chain: The double-chain retraction mechanism provides a robust and balanced winding action, reducing wear on the polyethylene hose and ensuring even coiling across the full hose length of up to 890 m (2,920 ft).
• Polyethylene Hose from Unadulterated Raw Material: The hose is manufactured exclusively from unadulterated polyethylene raw material, guaranteeing consistent wall thickness, pressure rating, and long service life — critical performance factors when operating with large-diameter hoses under sustained field conditions.
• Galvanised Double Water Inlet with Bauer 133 Connection: The galvanised double water inlet with Bauer 133 coupling provides a secure, standardised connection to the water supply, compatible with widely used field infrastructure and resistant to corrosion over extended service periods.
• 4-Wheel Chassis with Variable Track Wheels on Raingun Trolley: The four-wheel chassis provides stable transport and field positioning, while the galvanised raingun trolley mounted on variable track wheels ensures adaptability to varying field widths and terrain conditions.
• Wide Nozzle Set Compatibility: Standard equipment includes a full set of EXPLORER raingun nozzles from Ø 28 to Ø 40 and LANCER raingun nozzles from Ø 30 to Ø 40, giving operators the flexibility to optimise throw diameter and precipitation rate for different crops and field geometries without additional tooling costs.

Eliminates manual setup effort by allowing the operator to position, level, and configure the machine entirely from the tractor cab, saving significant time at each field move. 4-Speed Synchronized Gearbox A 4-speed synchronized gearbox paired with a flanged turbine and double built-in by-pass delivers precise hose retraction speed control. Allows fine-tuned application rates across varying field conditions, ensuring uniform water distribution and preventing over- or under-irrigation in any zone. Double Chain Retraction Hose retraction is driven by a robust double chain mechanism that winds the polyethylene hose back onto the reel. Dual chain drive distributes mechanical load evenly, reducing wear and delivering reliable, consistent retraction performance throughout the full hose length. Computer Aqua System An integrated Computer Aqua System provides automated monitoring and management of the irrigation run. Takes the guesswork out of irrigation scheduling by automating retraction control, helping operators achieve precise water application with minimal supervision. Multiple Nozzle Options Includes a full set of EXPLORER raingun nozzles from Ø28 to Ø40 and LANCER raingun nozzles from Ø30 to Ø40 as standard equipment. Operators can quickly adapt the machine to different crops, soil types, and water pressures without purchasing additional accessories, maximising versatility from day one. Hot-Dip Galvanized Build The chassis, reel, and raingun trolley are all constructed from hot-dip galvanized steel for comprehensive corrosion protection. Full galvanization across all major structural components ensures long-term durability in wet, chemical-rich agricultural environments, reducing maintenance costs over the machine's life. Variable Track Raingun Trolley A galvanized raingun trolley mounted on variable track wheels allows the track width to be adjusted to suit field conditions. Adapts to different row spacings and terrain types, ensuring stable raingun positioning and consistent coverage regardless of the operating environment. Telescopic Stabilizing Feet Hydraulically operated telescopic feet provide adjustable ground support for the machine during operation. Ensures the reel and chassis remain level on uneven ground, protecting the drivetrain from lateral stress and improving hose winding accuracy. Galvanized Double Water Inlet A galvanized double water inlet fitted with a Bauer 133 coupling provides the primary water connection point to the machine. The dual inlet design supports high flow rates while the industry-standard Bauer coupling ensures fast, leak-free connection to existing irrigation infrastructure. Heavy-Duty 4-Wheel Chassis A four-wheel chassis fitted with 15.0/70-18 148A8 14PR 6F rated tyres provides the structural foundation and mobility of the machine. High load-rated tyres and a four-wheel configuration deliver stable towing at transport speeds and confident field manoeuvrability even on soft or wet ground. Virgin Polyethylene Hose The lay-flat hose is manufactured from unadulterated virgin polyethylene raw material for maximum structural integrity. Using only pure, unrecycled material ensures consistent wall thickness, greater UV and pressure resistance, and a longer service life compared to hoses made from recycled compounds.
