PrimeFlow

PrimeFlow is a pressure-based system for circulation of liquid to the nozzles before the actual spraying starts. It prevents
sedimentation and ensures a homogeneous pesticide before spraying onto the ground.
The PrimeFlow menus are only relevant for sprayers equipped with PrimeFlow valves. The PrimeFlow liquid system has to
be set up at installation. The HARDI Service Centre does this.
μ
ATTENTION! When setup, the PrimeFlow system is automatic and therefore does not need user action to work while
spraying.

AutoSectionControl

AutoSectionControl is:
• a fully automatic system that opens and closes booms sections as
necessary.
• a module integrated into the SmartCom terminal and connected
to a GPS receiver.
÷
NOTE! In case a non-HARDI terminal do not have auto section
functions, the AutoSectionControl cannot be used.
AutoSectionControl do:
• manage the sections when driving over sprayed area like into a
headland or wedge or around obstacles like trees, etc.
• automatically record the area sprayed, when spraying.
In a typical situation where the headland is sprayed first,
AutoSectionControl will now automatically close the sections if the
operator passes over a sprayed area.
μ
ATTENTION! Variable Rate Application needs to be enabled for AutoSectionControl to work - refer to "Menu 2.3
Variable Rate Application (VRA) / Remote / AutoSectionControl" on page 48.

AutoNozzleControl

AutoNozzleControl is a PrimeFlow based system. The system works with AutoSectionControl and controls every single
nozzle automatically to reduce the environmental impact as much as possible, by minimising double-sprayed area.
There is no setup required for AutoNozzleControl to work. However the controller used, need to be capable of a multi-
section setup corresponding to the number of nozzles on the boom.
AutoSectionControl Modes
Switching between automatic and manual modes changes the AutoNozzleControl function:
• Auto mode: Single nozzle switching (50 cm sections).
• Manual mode: Nozzles grouped into sections. Up to 13 sections, depending on the sprayer setup.
