    Introduction About the ISOBUS VT system The ISOBUS VT is for use in agricultural and horticultural production. The components are developed to last many years under agricultural conditions. The system has a non-volatile memory without battery which simplifies storage. All parameters in the menus are saved in the memory and are not lost when the power is disconnected.

  • Page 54 7 - Menu 3 Calibration Menu 3.1.1.1 Sprayer speed constant The theoretical speed constant, pulses per unit (PPU), is the number of times the speed sensor records holes (or protrusions / magnets) per foot (meter) as the wheel rotates past the sensor. If necessary, this can be calculated by dividing the number of protrusions by the circumference of the tire in feet (meters).
  • Page 55: Menu 3.2 Flow Calibration

    Menu 3.2.1 Flow constant When spraying both fertilizer and chemical, HARDI® recommends to use 2 different flow sensor housings in order to get good pressure regulation. The same flow sensor wheel is used for both flow sensor housings. Flow sensor calibration PPU must be changed each time flow sensor housings are changed.
