7.2 MOTORISED KNAPSACK MIST BLOWER CUM DUSTER |
|
|
|
Features: It
consists of two plastic tanks (fuel and water/dust), engine, pump, spray hose,
rope starter, delivery pipe, cut-off-cock, shoulder straps and a frame. It
has a small 2-stroke petrol/kerosene engine of 35 cc to which a centrifugal
fan is connected. The fan produces a high velocity air stream, which is
diverted through a 90-degree elbow to a flexible (plastic) discharge hose,
which has a divergent outlet. Upon rotation of the engine the fan produces a
high velocity air stream. The control valve for the spray is opened gradually
and adjusted for the desired flow rate. The operator directs the discharge
hose to the target. It can be converted for dusting and ULV application. |

Features: The
sprayer essentially consists of a tank made of fiber glass or plastic, pump
assembly’s suction pipe with strainer, pressure gauges, pressure regulators,
air chamber, delivery pipe and spray boom fitted with nozzles. The sprayer is

utilize PTO power of the tractor to operate the pump of the sprayer.
Basically the spray boom can be arranged in two ways; ground spray boom and
overhead spray boom. The overhead spray boom is designed for spraying in tall
field crops and the planting is done in such a way that an unplanted strip of
