27.4 m (90 ft) Spray Boom Flow Characteristics (Standard Flow)—Flow Rate and Pressure

N104095-UN-10JUN13

Liquid System Performance

A - System Pressure

B - System Flow

C - Orifice Valve Closed

D - Standard Flow Plumbing—Single Flowmeter

E - High Flow Plumbing—Single Flowmeter

NOTE: Spray boom flow rate is not recommended under 15 L/min (4 gal/min).

The performance curves are shown with agitation off. With agitation on, the maximum output reduces.

The test system was equipped with both 50 and 80 mesh solution strainers.

A pressure drop occurs between the pressure sensor on the spray boom section shutoff valves and the nozzle tip. As larger is the flow rate, larger is the pressure drop.
