Adjust Flowmeter Valve-If Equipped

Flowmeter valve (if equipped with high flow plumbing) is located on top of the center boom section. This valve must be setup properly to allow the liquid system to spray either low or high application rates.

NOTE: When High flow rate is turned "ON" in SPRAYSTAR the flowmeter valve must be opened on boom. If SPRAYSTAR and flow meter valve settings do not agree:

  • Valve open but SPRAYSTAR High Flow "OFF " - will overapply

  • Valve closed but SPRAYSTAR High Flow "ON " - will underapply

    Flow rate ranges are:

  • Low flow rate (up to 341 Lpm (90 gpm)
  • High flow rate (341 Lpm (90 gpm) and above)

To determine solution flow rate; identify Lpm (gpm) of selected nozzle and multiply by the total number of nozzles on the boom.

Adjust flowmeter valve for your application rate as follows;

Adjust Flowmeter Valve For Low Flow Rate (Up to 90 gpm)

1. Unfold and lower boom to access valves.

2. Close flowmeter valve (A) (if equipped).

3. Verify high flow rate is turned off in SPRAYSTAR. (See Setting Flowmeter(s) Calibration Number in SPRAYSTAR section for procedure.)

4. Set application rate on SPRAYSTAR display. (See Setting Application Rates in the SPRAYSTAR section for procedure.)

Adjust Flowmeter Valve For High Flow Rate (90 gpm and Above)

1. Unfold and lower boom to access valves.

2. Open flowmeter valve (A) (if equipped).

IMPORTANT: If flowmeter valve (A) is opened for spraying above 90 gpm, the second flowmeter calibration number must also be entered into SPRAYSTAR. (See Setting Flowmeter(s) Calibration Number in the SPRAYSTAR section for procedure.

3. Verify high flow rate is turned on in SPRAYSTAR. (See Setting Flowmeter(s) Calibration Number in SPRAYSTAR section for procedure.)

4. Set application rate on SPRAYSTAR display. (See Setting Application Rates in the SPRAYSTAR section for procedure.)
