5 - Operation

Operating Limits

The following things are important when considering the performance of the sprayer.

•

Maximum driving speed

•

Pressure setting 

•

Minimum/maximum volume rate

The operating limits for your sprayer are closely related to:

•

Pump size

•

Boom width

•

Nozzle size

In the table below, the operating limits for volume rate are calculated, when driving at different speeds.

÷

NOTE! The specified nozzle type is a standard flat fan nozzle. Other special nozzle types will show different results. Ask 
your HARDI dealer if in doubt.

μ

ATTENTION! It is recommended not to drive faster than 16 km/h when spraying.

μ

ATTENTION! The pressure range for the nozzles are 1.5 - 5 bar (except for HARDI INJET nozzles, which are ranging from 
3-8 bar). The spraying pressure should be within these limits.

μ

ATTENTION! In the table below, the specified combination of nozzle size and sprayer setup is not suitable, as the full 
pressure range of 5 bar for the nozzle cannot be reached, when spraying the maximum volume rate (l/ha) on the crop. 
This is due to the nozzle design.

÷

According to the standard for environmental requirements for sprayers, ISO 16119 / EC Directive 2009/127/EC 
(amending 2006/42/EC), the farmer shall be able to use the full pressure range.
