DRAFT 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Micron TURBOFAN Sprayhead has been developed from over 30 years experience in the design and use of rotary atomisers. Originally developed f or agricultural aircraft, these atomisers are now used for aerial a nd ground applications in more than 75 coun- tries. This unique background, combined with continuous research an ...

DRAFT 4 3.0 TEN KEY POINTS FOR USERS The following list of ten points is intended to assist users in the efficient use of Turbofan sprayheads. It is hoped that this section will encourage users to read the entire handbook and follow its recommendations. 1. Check that all atomisers rotate freely. The only friction should be drag from the hy- draulic ...

DRAFT 6 4.1.1 Distance from Crop Each sprayhead must be positioned sufficien tly f ar from the crop to allow the airflow from the fan to disperse the spray droplet s over a wide band and to prevent local over- application of fo liage close to the atomiser. However, the d i stance s hould not be so great that the airflow becomes dissipa ted or that ...

DRAFT 7 IMPORTANT: Sprayheads must never be posi tioned so that spra y droplets can be blown towards the driver or opera tor of the sprayer. Ensure that all spray is blown clear of the sprayer structure to eliminate contamination and run-off. 4.1.3 Angle of Sprayheads Sprayheads should normally be angled so as to m axi mise the width of the band of ...

DRAFT 8 4.2.2 Parallel Connection The hydraulic motors of the Turbofan are normally connected in parallel. To calculate the hydraulic flow require d for a specific number of heads :- • each head runs at 4000 rpm • the oil flow required per moto r is 4000 x 2ml/rev = 8 1/min • add 10% for pump and other hydraulic losses = 8.8 l/min eg For 6 he ...

DRAFT 9 4.2.4 Hydraulic Oil Flow If a Power Take Off (PTO) driven hydraulic pump is used, the pum p should be chosen to provide the calculated maximum oil flow plus losses and no more. If a larger pump were to be used, any unused oil would have to be by-passed and would generate heat. The specified output of the pump must match the calculated oil r ...
