Chassis
The chassis is an all steel construction, that is fully
welded for superior strength. The chassis is grit
blasted, primed and then protected by the Goldacres
paint process for excellent chemical resistance and
durability.

Tank
All tanks are constructed from UV resistant
polyethylene. Polyethylene tanks have a very high
chemical resistance. Due to the rotational moulding
process, there can be variance in the overall
dimensions of the tank which in turn results in
5-10% variation in the tank capacity. For this reason,
calibration markings should be used as a guide only.
Cabin
The cabin features panoramic views surrounding
the sprayer and is customised to suit spraying
applications. The rate controller and all key spraying
functions are within easy reach of the operator
Further information on the cabin can be found in
Chapter 4 'Cabin'.

Agitation
The Supermix agitator is located at the back of the
tank and is used to generate increased agitation
within the tank. The pressure line to the Supermix
agitator from the control manifold passes through a
nozzle and then through the barrel into the tank. This
causes extra agitation as flow around the agitator is
sucked into the barrel and is then passed back into
the tank. To increase this venturi effect, the bypass
flow from the electric regulating valve also passes
through the barrel, multiplying the agitation effect.
The Supermix agitator has an approximate capacity
of 300 - 1300 L/min depending of the pump size and
operating pressure. For further information refer to
Chapter 10 'Lubrication & Maintenance'.
Rate Controller
These sprayers are fitted with a Raven Rate Control
Module (RCM). This is an automatic rate controller
that will maintain a user defined application rate
automatically as the vehicle speed changes. In order
to function, the automatic rate controller relies on
a flow meter, speed sensor and control valve. For
specific information on the Raven controller please
refer to Raven operator's manual supplied and
Chapter 6 'Calibration' of this manual.
