3-WAY VALVE:
The manual 3-Way brass valve is used as a selector to route either
formulation or flushing solution from their respective tanks to the nozzle. The in line
formulation filter with stainless steel filtering element mesh # 80 is attached to the 3-
Way valve.
INSECTICIDE (FORMULATION) TANK:
Corrosion and UV resistant, easily
removable, high density Polyethylene, with a label Formulation to avoid mistakes at
the filling operation. The tank capacity is 15 U.S. gallons (57 Lt). The tank includes a
3/8" stainless steel stand pipe and vented cap (swing style and lockable), secured to
the tank to prevent accidental loss. The formulation tank is translucent and has an
external volume scale (3 gal, 6 gal, 9 gal, 12 gal, and the top of the tank) to indicate
the formulation level.
FLUSH TANK:
Corrosion and UV resistant, high density Polyethylene, with a label
FLUSH to avoid mistakes when filling. The tank capacity is 1 U.S. gallons (3.8 Lt). It
includes a vented cap, secured to the tank to prevent accidental loss. It also includes
a pick-up filter and stand pipe to deliver flush solution to the system.
REMOTE CONTROL:
Machine ON/OFF, Spray ON/OFF, Engine Start. The remote
control can be removed from the machine by disconnecting an electrical quick
coupling at the end of the cable.
FRAME:
High strength welded square tube frame, including cross members for
additional strength. The compact base dimensions permit easy handling and
mounting. Each machine includes four heavy duty rubber feet for even support and
higher friction coefficient with the vehicle bed. Each machine includes a heavy duty
engine/blower mounting plate with shock-absorbing pads to minimize machine
vibration.
INSTRUMENTATION:
The
control system is equipped with functions/switches as
indicated under
Remote Control unit
section. The insecticide will not flow through
lines in proximity to the operator/vehicle driver. The machine also include an air
pressure gauge (0-15 psi) glycerin filled for accuracy. The ON/OFF switch for
instantaneous shut down of the engine is located at the remote control unit (machine
switch), and on the engine itself (key switch) for safety purposes.
HI-FLEX COUPLING:
To deliver the power from the engine to the blower with
maximum efficiency and reliability, the machine is equipped with a Heavy Duty direct
drive flexible coupling. The coupling, blower shaft and engine shaft are guarded for
safety.
