MOUNT THE BOOM SENSORS
BOOM SENSOR MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Sensor mounting locations may be influenced by the boom configuration. If an object enters the sensor's blind
range unexpectedly, a false return to the sensor could occur. To ensure optimal operation of the AutoBoom XRT
system and to protect the sprayer boom, the sensor should be mounted behind the boom structure (if possible),
above the lowest hanging part of the boom.
MOUNT THE BOOM SENSORS
1. The table below provides the approximate mounting locations for various boom widths. The information on
this table is for reference only. If there is interference or other issues with these mounting locations, mount the
sensors as close to these locations as possible.
TABLE 1. Sensor Mounting Location
Boom Width
90'
100'
120'
NOTE:
The numbers in the table above are the approximate distance. As a rule, the sensor should be
mounted half way between two spray tips to minimize potential drift interference.
