Read Me First Catalyst™ The SureFire system is designed to give accurate and even row-to-row distribution of NutriSphere-N NH3 at a normal rate of 32 oz/acre. It has the capacity to deliver higher rates if desired. Note: Ounces/acre, not gallons/acre. Ounces per acre means a very small amount of liquid is being pumped and distributed. -

Flow Indicators and Dual Check Valves Components Liquid Some systems may have a dual check valve system with two metering tubes as shown at the right. On this system, flow can be directed to the small tube, or to the large tube, or to both tubes by opening or closing the valves by twisting the blue caps. - Page 12 Metering Tube Plumbing Kits Components Liquid Catalyst The SureFire Tower 100 NutriSphere-N NH3 system comes with a dual metering tube distribution system. These plumbing kits will contain everything you need to distribute product from the flowmeter outlet down to the ground application device.

Page 42: Important Setup And Troubleshooting Procedures
Setup and Troubleshooting the Pro 700 AccuControl Liquid PWM System (aka Intellivew IV Intellirate) Note to SureFire people: The Default speed setting that works on our test stand does not work when the tractor is not moving when the Pro 700 is plugged into a tractor that has Radar, Wheel, or GPS speed capability. This makes testing the system in a Run mode impossible without driving the tractor. -
Page 43: Application Rate Fluctuates, Slow Getting To Target Rate
Application Rate & Flow Troubleshooting Application Rate Fluctuates Trouble- Due to the very low application rate used on this system, pump speed changes must shooting be made very slowly since even small changes in pump speed will result in a relatively large change in flow. -
Page 44: Maintenance & Parts
Recommended Care and Maintenance Winterization Maintenance & Parts SureFire recommends flushing your product pump and complete system with adequate amounts of water first. Next, use RV antifreeze to winterize your system by pumping an adequate amount through all components. At the beginning of the next season, begin with water to verify the system is in working order with no leaks.
