Appendix A
Unit Component Description
•
Digital Controller
– accepts user input, displays unit operating
mode and status, controls electromechanical components.
•
Remote Receiver & Antenna
– receives signal from handheld
remote transmitter
•
Pump & Motor
– atomizes drum contents through nozzle circuit.
Pump pressure typically set to 240 psi.
•
Agitating Valve (optional)
– One path through the valve routes
fluid to the nozzle circuit. The other path recirculates fluid in the
drum through j-tube mixing assembly.
•
Plastic Housing & Cover
– protects components from the
elements. The cover may be locked to the housing to secure
access to the controller. The housing contains ports to the
nozzle circuit tubing as well as to an optional Zone Kit. On units
with an agitating valve, a pressure gauge is mounted into the
plastic housing.
•
Pump Intake Line and Filter
– Pump intake positioned near
bottom of drum. Filter ensures debris is not drawn into pump
and nozzle circuit.
•
J-tube Mixing Assembly
(on units with optional Agitating
Valve) – To ensure thorough mixing, during agitation, fluid is
pushed through a j-shaped tube assembly at the bottom of the
drum.
•
Auto-Drain Valve
– ensures rapid increase in nozzle circuit
pressure on pump startup and rapid decrease on shutdown.
•
Remote Transmitter
– 3-button remote enables the user to start
a mist, stop a mist and skip the next scheduled mist.
•
Unit Cover
– Weatherproof fabric cover provides protection of
the unit from the elements.
Other Components
The operations of the Gen 1.3 are managed by a digital controller
and a number of electro-mechanical components. Information
about mist schedules, duration, and agitating the insecticide are
entered into the controller by the user.
