STEP 9 - IF THE TESTED RATE IS
UNSATISFACTORY
If your tested application rate does not meet your
requirements, your options are:
A) In Auto mode - if the application rate is
not being achieved:
• Operating pressure will be excessive if nozzles are
too small or blocked or speed is too fast.
Likewise, if your pressure filter is blocked (even
partially), you may experience excessive pressure
at the pump.
Make adjustments accordingly.
• Operating pressure will fall if nozzles are too large or
speed is too slow. Make adjustments accordingly.
B) In Manual mode - the Controller application
rate can be altered by:
• Adjusting pressure up or down to increase or decrease
rate of application (use +/- keys).
• Adjusting spraying speed up or down to decrease or
increase rate of application.
• Changing to a different nozzle capacity.
Repeat necessary testing procedures and calculation
of application rate if adjustments or changes are made.
LITRES PER 100 METRES / ROW
Many Auto Rate controllers have an option for Litres per
100 metres and is occasionally the unit of preference in
some vineyard operations. It’s a simpler formula as row
width is not relevant.
The calculation requires volume and distance, such as 11 litres
per 100 metres (of rows). The operator only needs to follow
the chemical label rate for mixing concentrate per 100 L..
