TurboDrop® Asymmetric Dual Fan Nozzle for AG (TADF)
The new TurboDrop® Asymmetric Dual Fan Nozzle (TADF) is designed to improve coverage on vertical and angular targets with contact chemicals.
With single flat fan nozzles, the force from the travel speed of the sprayer deflects the downward oriented droplets forward in the driving direction. Coverage on the backside of the plant is minimized. The 50° rearward spray of the TADF is designed to overcome this effect and improve backside coverage. The 10° forward spray will provide a combination of penetration and frontside coverage.
Additionally, the rearward spray has a higher flow rate to further assist backside coverage. Smaller drops are produced by the forward spray to provide a wider droplet size range overall.
In most sizes, the droplet spectrum is Medium-Course below 80 psi and Medium-Fine above 80 psi.
The TADF nozzle should be ideal for fungicide spraying in wheat and other crops, and can also be used for general herbicide applications. Higher pressures are recommended for contact chemicals.
TurboDrop® Nozzles Produce large, air-filled drops that give extraordinary drift reduction and excellent penetration. Upon impact with the target, the drops shatter into very small droplets, providing exceptional spray coverage.
1. Long-wearing polyacetal or ceramic orifice in venturi determines flow rate.
2. The pressure drop created by the venturi draws in air through the hole in the venturi.
3. In the mixing chamber, the air and spray solution are blended and compressed.
4. The pattern tip forms large, drift resistant spray drops, filled with tiny air bubbles.
5. The air included in the spray liquid expands as it exits the pattern nozzle, additionally accelerating the drops.
6. The air bubbles cause the drops to explode when they hit the target. Large drops become small droplets that provide optimum coverage for chemical efficacy.
