A. INTRODUCTION
Example of de-icing solution Rate Cal
5. Now that you know your GPM (2.29) and the GPA (59.80) you can find a nozzle that best matches your
needs. The SJ3-20-VP best matches what you are looking for.
Remember that you will may not find the exact match, this is just a guideline to help determine what noz-
zle will be the
closest
match and able to perform according to your needs. There are other factors that will get
the application rate where you want it to be.
Always consider the purpose of the spray job when selecting a nozzle type. This nozzle type was deter-
mined by the job it was intended to do (de-icing). A different nozzle may be needed to apply insecticides and
herbicides in the spring and summer months.
* This is just an example based on feedback from our customers. Hagie Manufacturing can not account for the
infinitely variable situations that may be unique to each machine, operator, climate, and other conditions.
