SPRAYER
GENERAL SPRAYING INFORMATION
After the nozzles have been individually checked and matched, the sprayer should be calibrated to
determine the correct speed for the desired application volume. Refer to Table 1, for typical application
rates for different nozzles. Note nozzles listed are Spraying Systems nozzles.
Note: Tip pressure is usually less than the pressure at the pump. Losses occur in valves, hoses, etc.
Always check the flow by the above calibration method.
