ULTRASONIC SENSOR
INSTALLATION
NOTE:
For optimal system performance, Raven Industries recommends a five sensor system configuration. If
the machine is not already equipped with inner sensors, a dual system upgrade kit (P/N 117-0137-026)
is required to complete the five sensor configuration. The dual sensor upgrade kit is sold separately.
Contact your local Raven dealer for ordering information.
MOUNT THE BOOM SENSORS
BOOM SENSOR MOUNTING LOCATIONS
Sensor mounting locations may be influenced by the boom configuration. If an object enters the sensor’s blind
rage unexpectedly, a false echo return to the sensor could occur, causing the boom to drop and the sensor or
boom to be damaged. To ensure optimal operation of the UltraGlide system and to protect the sprayer boom, the
sensor should be mounted on the front side of the boom, 8 - 10” above the lowest hanging part of the boom.
