Rostselmash, in collaboration with RariTEK Holding JSC, presented the Rostselmash 2375 tractor, which runs on liquefied natural gas (LNG). The model was showcased at the St. Petersburg International Gas Forum.
The new tractor belongs to the sixth traction class. The Rostselmash 2375 became the first agricultural machine to be converted to run on LNG. The prototype received an RGK 820.636-380 engine, which is capable of producing 380 horsepower. The capacity of the LNG fuel tank is 1100 liters, and the capacity of the compressed natural gas methane (CNG) tank is 200 liters.
According to RariTEK Holding, the order to modify the Rostselmash 2375 tractor, which initially ran on diesel fuel, was received in the spring of 2023. The company's specialists first developed a 3D model of the future gas fuel system, and then made it in full size.
The LNG tanks were placed in the rear of the tractor, and the CNG cylinders were placed instead of the dismantled diesel tanks. After that, the engineers modified the exhaust system, electrical system, and other important systems of the tractor.
It was previously reported that Tatarstan plans to launch the assembly of BELARUS 1221.3 tractors. The equipment for the agricultural sector will run on gas.
