Flow Regulators
Flow Regulators
Flow Regulators are usually mounted behind cultivator shanks for the subsurface application of liquid fertilizers and soil fumigants. They are also used for above-ground streaming applications.
Note: Always insert orifice plate with side marked with number facing the outlet.
To determine the orifice plates you need, use the following equations:
|
GPM |
= |
GPA x MPH W |
OR |
l/min |
= |
l/ha x km/hr x W |
|
(per nozzle) |
5,940 |
(per nozzle) |
60,000 |
|
|
GPA |
= |
5,940 x GPM (per nozzle)
|
OR |
l/ha |
= |
60,000 x l/min (per nozzle) |
|
MPH x W |
km/h x W
|
| W | = | Nozzle spacing (in inches or cm) for broadcast spraying |
| = | Spray width (in inches or cm) for single nozzle, band spraying or boomless spraying |
|
| = | Row spracing (in inches or cm) divided by the number of nozzles per row for directed spraying |
If your application creates backpressure, or if spraying into a liquid, measure and calibrate to ensure proper application rates. Conversion factors must be used when spraying liquids that are heavier or lighter than water.
