TECHNICAL DATA
The units described in this manual can use two different systems of distribution depending on the
parts that they are composed of:
• Constant pressure distribution:
in these units have no proportional valve therefore the adjustment function is carried out by the
maximum pressure valve located on the main control valve.
After the operating pressure has been adjusted, the unit’s flow rate remains constant, therefore the
vehicle progress speed must also remain constant in order to have uniform distribution per surface
unit (litres / hectare or GPA).
• Distribution in proportion with engine revs:
the proportional valve installed on these units safeguards uniform distribution of spraying over the
surface unit (litres/ hectare or GPA), even with variations of + 20% in the progress speed provided
the same gear is maintained.
