The exact ground speed can also be calculated by the following formula:
Example : You need 45 seconds for 100 m:
Determine nominal output volume per minute
To calculate the nominal output volume per minute you will require:

the exact ground speed,

the working width,

the desired application rate.
Example : You wish to calculate the nominal output volume at a particular outlet.
The ground speed is 8 km/h , the working width is set at 18 m and the application
rate should be 300 kg/ha .
Calculation with the calibration test calculator:
1.
Move the tab until it is at 300 kg/ha under 18 m.
2. The value of the nominal output volume for both outlets can now be read
above the value of the ground speed of 8 km/h.
 The nominal output volume per minute is 72 kg/min.
If the calibration test is conducted at one outlet only, the total value of the nominal
output volume must be halved to calculate the value for one outlet.
3. Divide the read value by two (= number of outlets).

The nominal output volume per minute is 36 kg/min.
Ground speed (km/h) =

NOTICE
For some output volumes and ground speeds, the output volume is already
shown in the calibration charts.
If you do not find your values in the calibration charts, they can be found with
the calibration test calculator or with a formula.
