Machine Components
The Boom Sprayer is a large transportable tank
with spray booms to distribute chemicals over a
wide area. Chemicals can be added directly into
the tank through the top tank lid, bottom fill line,
or through an optional eductor tank. The system
is pressurized by a hydraulically powered pump
that provides flow for tank agitation, tank
washing, and boom pressure.
A 100-gallon rinse tank is mounted on the front of
the frame. A 3-gallon hand wash tank is mounted
on the right side with a faucet by the ladder.
Optional foam markers are available, and that
tank mounts on the right side of the frame. An
optional eductor tank can be mounted on the left
side of the frame.
The chemical circuit is either plumbed into the
tank for agitation to keep the solution mixed or to
the rotating ball wash heads for washing or
rinsing the tank. A solenoid to each boom controls
the flow to the wings, and a butterfly valve and
flow sensor maintains the system pressure.
Nozzles along the wings distribute the chemical
solution over the field. A screen in the line next to
the pump and after the solenoids removes
contaminants from the system. The chemical
system controller is mounted in the tractor cab for
easy operation.
The booms attach to and are suspended from the
back of the frame. The inner booms swing back
at right angles to the frame for field operation. The
outer booms pivot up and out for field operation.
The wing extensions (breakaways) swing back if
they hit an obstruction. The boom position
controller mounts in the cab for easy operation.
An adjustable axle provides discrete, variable
wheel spacing to fit your application.
