5.5.2 Output Flow Rate Hi Flo Nozzles

Check the required flow rate for each nozzle using the look up tables in section 5.1
of this document. Select the nozzle and pressure required from the following table.

Output Flow Rate Test - Hi Flo Nozzles
The flow chart above should provide a good indication of the flow rate from each
nozzle size at different pressures.
To check the nozzle output you will require a stop watch and a graduated measuring
cylinder large enough to hold the output volume expected over 1 minute.
 Start the spraying pump and ensure the output from the nozzle is steady.
 Place the measuring cylinder under the nozzle and measure the quantity of liquid
dispensed in one minute.
 The flow rate is determined by the line pressure and nozzle used. If the required
flow is not correct (as calculated in section 5) then adjust the spray line pressure
or change the nozzle as required.
