Regulating the drop size with AIRTEC
AIRTEC is a system for regulating the drop size on field sprayers. It adds compressed air to the spray
mixture directly in the nozzle at a ratio calculated by the job computer.
Minimum equipment of the field sprayer:
▪ Nozzles with air support
▪ Air compressor: on the field sprayer or on the tractor.
The job computer regulates the air pressure such that the drop size always remains constant. Even
when the spray pressure changes.
Important:
For the system to be able to work optimally at the beginning of the field, the
speed should be the same when switching off the sprayer at the end of the
field as well as when switching on at the beginning of the field, and should
correspond as closely as possible to the normal spraying speed.
