Better performance when it really counts

A completely new nozzle valve system

The nozzle valve technology, completely redesigned for the TR10, has also been used for the TR9. The central valve block is replaced by individually controllable single valves. Highly innovative and perfectly coordinated, each nozzle block on the nozzle ring is controlled by its own valve. More valves mean more advantages.

Resource efficiency: Water loss upon actuation of the various valves is prevented by using compressed air to empty the nozzles. The excess water is integrated directly into the air jet and then converted into snow.

Operating safety: The innovative nozzle valve design completely eliminates the need for the central valve block and front discharge. This prevents ice forming in front of the machine and greatly increases operational safety.

Reliability: Thanks to the intelligent valve circuit, the valves replace each other in the event of failure. This ensures that the required number of nozzles is always open.

The best snow output in borderline conditions

Air cooling on the machine is key to improving snow output in limit temperature conditions. The air cooler on the TR9 has been redesigned and improved. It has an unprecedented cooling capacity due to the significant increase in cooling surface area. This ensures that optimum quality snow is produced even in difficult temperature conditions. The TR9 is especially impressive at borderline temperatures, with unrivaled snow output.

Double gem quality

Perfect snow quality starts with the smallest parts of a snow gun. An optimal air-water mixture is crucial here. All nucleators on the machine come standard with two ruby inserts in the bore through which the correct amount of water is fed into the compressed air. However, the TR9 nozzles are now fitted with these ruby inserts as standard - for the very first time. The ruby inserts are characterized by maximum wear resistance even when faced with aggressive water and high operating pressures. They constantly generate high-quality snow over many years and significantly reduce wear and tear on the nucleators and nozzles.

One motor for improved output

The fan and compressor on the TR9 are driven by a single electric motor. The rotary vane compressor is oil-free, delivers a more uniform compressed air flow, weighs less and is easier to service.

Always in the lead

The correct snowmaking position is vital in order to produce snow efficiently. The TR9 has a brand new mechanical concept that automatically brings the snow gun — even the mobile model — into the correct vertical snowmaking position once operational. The TR9 will automatically move to the correct working position and return to the starting position when snowmaking is over. This makes it less susceptible to damage when not in use.

The aim of this change was not only to improve snow output, but also to simplify the work of the snowmaking team. The starting and working positions of the TR9 can be individually preset. Even the tiltable settings on the fan gun have been improved, allowing snow to be spread more accurately on the slope.

The big screen

The TR9 comes with the largest touch display on the market. Touch functions are specifically integrated into the machine's control system and are therefore very user-friendly. The touch display has been painstakingly adapted to the requirements of the snowmaking teams and has impressive and unique features.

Optimal readability: The brightness and auto-dimming functions ensure perfect readability in strong sunlight and at night. The screen is also still easy to read at very steep angles.

Functional even in extreme situations: The display is still fully operational even at -30°C. Greater distance between the individual touch elements allows precise operations even with touch gloves.

Perfection and design

The innovative and functional design of the TR9 is an engineering masterpiece. The side covers can be removed and all essential components accessed in just a few seconds. The front ring on the TR9 has a telescopic pull-out action, allowing quick access to the nozzle valve ring without having to remove the cover. Maintenance is easier and transport safety improved by incorporating all of the protruding parts into the turbine housing.
