Nozzle Recommendations to Avoid Plugging.
Spraying AGGRAND fertilizers is an effective way to evenly distribute the product over a large area. Routine maintenance is required with most spray nozzles, whether commercial-grade sprayers or those designed for the homeowner, due to clogging caused by the products applied, contaminants in the water, mineral buildup, sand, sediment, and other debris.
For best performance select nozzles that deliver coarse to extra coarse droplet size.
Coarse droplet size lends itself well to AGGRAND liquid fertilizer products, as well as reducing drift of product applications into unintended areas. To reduce the possibility of spray nozzle clogging when employing field, small backpack, or handheld sprayers, it is recommended the screen(s) prior to the spray nozzle(s) be removed.
For field sprayers.
AGGRAND has found the use of the following TeeJet® Technologies spray nozzles effective: XR TeeJet®, Turbo FloodJet®, and StreamJet®. If your system or sprayer has an owner’s manual available or is covered under warranty, please refer to the recommendations of the manufacturer as any alterations without the manufacturer’s consent may void the warranty.
The sizes of the TeeJet Turbo Floodjet will be from TF-4, TF-5, or TF-7.5,” Beckett said. “This is based on pressure and speed that you can safely drive the tractor/sprayer in your fields. For those building a sprayer from a 275 gallon tote, a pair of (XT043) Hypro Boom X Tender nozzles (pictured below, left) are a great, economical boomless nozzle applicator. Two Hypro Boom X Tender nozzles can be used, or extend the spray swath by adding one or two TeeJet Turbo Floodjet (TF-7.5) nozzles in the middle of the XT043 nozzles. This set up will allow application of 26 to 32 gallons of AGGRAND per acre These nozzles, with screens removed, will spray all of the AGGRAND products with no clogging. These nozzle applicators, along with AGGRAND Fertilizer 4-3-3, give farmers/ranchers the economical advantage in today’s agricultural market.
