Force Evo Injection System Installation Manual
CABLE CONNECTIONS TO THE FORCE
®
EVO SYSTEM
Refer to Chapter 5,
System Diagrams and Ordering Instructions
, for system connection diagrams and review the
Raven Sidekick Pro™ or Sidekick Pro™ ISO manual required cabling connections to the injection pump. For
additional assistance with cabling options, contact a local Raven dealer.
IMPORTANT:
If a Raven control console will not be installed to control the liquid carrier, the installer must provide for the
following items:
•
When the carrier product is shut off, the injection pump must stop. The carrier control must not
allow the injection pump to operate in a “dead head” condition (e.g. injection pump running with
carrier and section valves closed) at any time.
•
When the carrier product is turned on, the injection pump must turn on. The carrier control must
not allow skips in the injected chemical coverage.
INJECTION RATE CALCULATIONS
Before operating the Force
®
Evo injection system, verify that the system will be able to meet the expected output
of the operation. Adjust the operation speeds or injection rate as necessary to ensure that the injection pump is
capable of performing in the anticipated operation conditions.
To calculate the volume per minute per row unit, use the following formula:
Where FPR is the flow rate per row, Rate equals the target injection rate in oz./acre [dL/ha], spacing is the row
spacing in inches [centimeters] and speed is the normal or maximum vehicle speed during operation in mph [km/
hr].
Multiply the flow rate per row to find the total flow rate for the chemical injection.
FOR EXAMPLE:
Assume that the target rate is 8 oz./acre [5.8 dL/ha], row unit spacing of 30 inches [75 centimeters] and a
typical vehicle speed of 5 mph [8 km/hr] on a 16 row implement.
Therefore, the flow rate is 0.2 oz./min. [0.06 dL/min.] per row and the total flow rate for the chemical injection is
3.2 oz./min [0.96 dL/min.].
