The Fendt-Caravan Topas 520 TFB is a caravan from Fendt-Caravan (EU vehicle class O2), built from 2008 to 2010. It is 7,040 mm long and 2,500 mm wide, weighs 1,298 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 1,600 kg.
Payload for the Fendt-Caravan Topas 520 TFB, i.e. permitted gross weight minus unladen weight, is 302 kg. For a caravan this covers everything that travels along: gas bottles, awning, water, crockery and luggage; retrofitted equipment such as a motor mover or air conditioning reduces the margin further.
Under EU licensing rules, a category B licence allows a combination of towing vehicle and this trailer up to 3,500 kg permitted total mass – so the towing vehicle may weigh at most 1,900 kg. Code 96 on a B licence raises the limit to 4,250 kg (towing vehicle up to 2,650 kg); beyond that a BE licence is required. Being over 750 kg, the trailer must be braked, and the towing vehicle needs a braked towing capacity of at least 1,600 kg.
Among the 216 caravans from Fendt-Caravan with a stated length, the Fendt-Caravan Topas 520 TFB at 7,040 mm is in the middle of the range (rank 139); the range runs from 4,132 to 9,337 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists 2 units.
Fendt-Caravan caravans up to 3.5 t (Class O2) – Saphir, Topas, Diamant, Brillant and Platin ranges from Mertingen, 410 to 2,162.5 kg unladen weight, lengths up to 9.34 m, widths up to 2.55 m
This page gathers the Fendt-Caravan caravans of EU trailer Class O2 (trailers up to 3.5 t gross weight). Fendt-Caravan, based in Mertingen in Bavaria, has built touring caravans for decades and ranks among the long-established makers on the German caravan market. The model ranges carry gemstone and jewellery names that mark different equipment tiers within the line-up: Saphir and Diamant as widespread ranges, Topas, Brillant (also spelt Brilliant) and Platin as the higher lines, plus the special models Bianco and Bianco Classico/Sportivo and the Apero range. The number in the model name usually denotes the approximate body length or floor-plan length in decimetres, letter suffixes such as TF, TG or TFB mark different floor plans with different bed and kitchen layouts; a reading of these codes consistent across all model years cannot be reliably reconstructed from the model names in the register alone.

The register lists here 203 versions with unladen weights from 410 to 2,162.5 kg, gross weights from 1,100 to 2,500 kg, lengths from 4,132 to 9,337 mm and widths from 1,265 to 2,550 mm – values recorded in full for all 203 models.
Fendt-Caravan caravans sit in the mid to upper segment of the German caravan market, with rivals such as Hobby, Dethleffs, Tabbert and Knaus; the brand is especially strong in southern Germany.
When buying used, what counts is damp in floor, walls and roof (check with a moisture meter), the condition of axle, overrun coupling and jockey wheel, the seals of windows and roof lights, the function of the gas system, fridge and heating, and, on older models, the condition of furniture fittings; inspection reports and an unbroken service history are especially telling for caravans.
