Set & Check Application Rates – Calibration
5
An illustration of the speed range & output (70l/ha) available of two nozzles fitted
with the 3TS Option.
3TS Option
Find two nozzles which are nearest to the application
requirements..
Check the speed variation available maintaining the same
application rate & droplet size.
It is recommended to select two nozzles which allow the spray
controller to adjust pressure & switch nozzles On & Off with
required speed variations while maintaining consistent droplet
size and application rate.
Using the appropriate nozzle chart, look down the nozzle
capacity column (l/min) and select a nozzle to suit the output
(eg 0.8 l/min), droplet size and travel speed.
Refer to the commonly used Teejet and Lechler broadacre
nozzle charts at the end of this chapter. For more information,
