WORKING PRINCIPLES
The Nightstar ULV/LVM is a combination Ultra-Low-Volume/Low-Volume-Mister aerosol
applicator. It is electrically powered by either 115 volts or 230 volts AC. The machine is
available in (3) different models:
1)
NIGHTSTAR M ... Mounted on a heavy duty, welded steel frame with large wheels for
transporting. The fan housing and nozzle has a vertical, horizontal, upward/downward
adjustment capability.
2)
NIGHTSTAR S ... Mounted on a universal swivel bracket, the entire unit can be
mounted from the ceiling and swiveled 3 60 degrees for optimum positioning. The fan
housing and nozzle can be adjusted upward and downward.
3)
NIGHTSTAR T ... Mounted on a compact, heavy duty welded-steel frame with low
profile, rubber mounting feet. Designed to be mounted stationary on a table top or
platform type surface. The fan housing and nozzle have horizontal and upward and
downward adjustment capability.
All models operate on the same principles:
Air for the liquid spray is created by a 2-stage, high RPM electric motor/blower. Air from
the blower pressurizes the formulation and flush tanks, and supplies air thru a flexible
hose to the nozzle for atomizing the liquid. The air that is supplied to the formulation
tank is accurately regulated by means of an air bleed orifice. This orifice can be
changed to produce the desired flow rate. This flow rate is what determines the droplet
size being produced by the nozzle. Therefore, the smaller the air bleed orifice being
used, the higher the tank pressure, the higher the flow rate, and the larger the droplet
that will be produced.
The spray circulation air is provided by a High Air Flow (8000 CFM, 226 Cu.m/min) axial
fan. The fan has been tested and proven to provide even droplet distribution in areas of
up to 60,000 square feet (6000 square meters) without any additional fan assistance.
To adequately dispense two-part formulations that tend to separate over time (ie.
wetable powders), the NIGHTSTAR™ can be equipped with an optional auxiliary
formulation agitation system. The agitation system consists of two parts:
1) An air circulation tube that provides high velocity air to the formulation tank for
pressurization and agitation.
2) An electric motor driven pump that circulates and mixes the formulation. This pump
is activated by pushing the auxiliary agitation switch to the "ON" position.
After a spray treatment is completed, the entire spray system is automatically
flushed. The agitation pump is then turned off and the fan and blower are turned
off when their pre-programmed time expires.
