- Control Systems:
- Options for Manual or Automatic Rate Control.
- Manual Rate Controller: Pressure-based system with a weather-resistant box and liquid pressure gauge, controlling boom functions and pressure.
- Automatic Rate Controller: Adjusts application rate based on speed, with a digital display for various parameters and a nozzle display.
- A common wiring harness allows switching between controllers. Electrical components are housed in a convenient box.
- Other Standard Features:
- Includes an electric pressure/flow regulator, a self-cleaning 100-mesh filter, electric boom shutoff valves, and adjustable throttling valves. A personal wash system is standard. A foam marker is optional.
- Easy Removal and Installation:
- The sprayer can be easily detached by removing pins, electrical connectors, and hydraulic lines. Optional storage stands are available.
Important Notes:
- The automatic rate controller uses the purchased utility vehicle speed sensor, flow meter, and a digital pressure sensor for accuracy.
