Dramm Turbo ULV Manual Supplement 9/18
The Turbo ULV is a Hybrid Sprayer/Fogger and may be used in a variety of ways.
It can range from a
space treatment, utilizing ultra-fine droplets to fog an area to a directed spray, capable of targeted
applications.
To accommodate different droplet sizes, the Turbo ULV comes with several nozzles to allow for a
range of sizes and application types:
Below, this manual will explain rate and solution volume calculations for Ultra Low Volume and
Targeted Low Volume applications. These are at the outer ranges of the machines capabilities.
The chemical amount used will be the same per square foot for either application. However, the
solution volume will change.
FIRST: Calculate the amount of chemical required for 10,000 square feet.
Find the 100 gallon chemical label rate for the product you wish to apply. Multiply this by 0.40. This
is the amount of chemical to use in 10,000 square feet.
Example:
100 gallon rate of CHEMICAL Z = 10 oz
10 oz X 0.40 = 4 oz of CHEMICAL Z for 10,000 square feet.
Mix with the appropriate amount of carrier and water for 10,000 square feet.
If you wish to treat a larger or smaller area adjust by the percentage increase or decrease
appropriate.
Example:
Treat a greenhouse of 15,000 square feet with CHEMICAL Z.
15,000 square feet is 1.5 times larger than our standard of 10,000 sq feet.
4 oz CHEMICAL Z X 1.5 = 6 oz CHEMICAL Z for 15,000 square feet.
