Case IH 5250 Maxxum Horsepower FAQ
How much PTO horsepower does the Case IH 5250 Maxxum have?
The listed PTO output is 112 hp, above the 65 hp benchmark average. That is the number to use for mowers, balers, augers, pumps and other PTO tools that need up to about 112 hp.
How much drawbar horsepower does the Case IH 5250 Maxxum have?
The listed drawbar output is 103.4 hp, above the 55 hp benchmark average. That makes the 103.4 hp drawbar number more useful than engine hp for tillage and heavy pulling.
Is the Case IH 5250 Maxxum better judged by PTO hp or drawbar hp?
The drawbar output is about 92.3% of PTO output, comparing 103.4 drawbar hp with 112 PTO hp. That helps separate pulling ability from PTO implement ability.
How big is the Case IH 5250 Maxxum engine?
The engine displacement is 359 ci, above the 260 ci benchmark average. Bigger displacement can help low-rpm pull and load-holding feel.
Is the Case IH 5250 Maxxum engine stressed for its PTO horsepower?
The engine has about 3.2 cubic inches per PTO hp, using 359 ci and 112 PTO hp. That is close to the normal benchmark for this category.
How much PTO horsepower per liter does the Case IH 5250 Maxxum make?
The output density is about 19 PTO hp per liter, using 112 PTO hp and 5.9 L of displacement. Higher hp/L means more output squeezed from each liter; lower hp/L usually means a more relaxed engine tune.
What rpm is the Case IH 5250 Maxxum rated at?
The rated speed is 2,200 rpm, close to the 2,200 rpm benchmark average. The 2,200 rpm figure is around normal for this class.
