When to Spray
Results will be best when the wind speed is low, temperature is low and relative humidity high. An ideal
time is at sun up when these conditions are most likely to apply.
Jet/Swirl Plate Combination Charts
The following Jet/Swirl Plate Combination Charts show the total sprayer output that can be achieved from
each of the three Suntuff Linkage Airblast models at various operating pressures using different sets of
jets and swirl plates, e.g. 0.8/CC indicates a 0.8mm jet combined with a Closed Centre swirl plate.
Each of the jet/swirl plate sets is a typical combination that will be suitable for a number of spraying
applications. Use of these charts eliminates the need to calculate the output from individual nozzles.
Ensure that the chart used is the one which is applicable to your sprayer model.
