R & V-Series Benefits Brochure
The FMR R and V-Series vineyard sprayers are engineered to improve safety, productivity, and cost-effectiveness in vineyard operations. The patented technology focuses on minimizing spray application risks and costs, promoting efficient resource use.
Key Features
- Easy Setup: Minimal instruction is needed for new operators to prepare the sprayer, with no specialized knowledge required for the Tangential Fan system adjustments.
- Safety: Hydraulic motors remove the need for heavy lifting, and electronic controls enable boom adjustments from the tractor cab, reducing operator exposure.
- Efficiency: The Tangential Fan system provides even spray coverage, and the option to turn off nozzles allows for targeted application.
- Durability: The sprayers are built with a robust chassis, galvanized steelwork, and easy-to-repair composite tanks.
Economic and Environmental Benefits
- Significant chemical cost savings due to a recycling system that captures and reuses off-target drift.
- Reduced environmental impact with decreased chemical wastage and drift.
- Enhanced operator health and safety with low-noise operation and user-friendly controls.
Technical Specifications
The sprayers include features such as Weber QU-14 tangential fans, custom 8-nozzle wet booms, and BRAVO 300S auto rate controllers. They are hydraulically driven, requiring minimal tractor power.
Model Options
Various models are available, including single and tandem axle options, with configurations for different row widths and capacities.
Conclusion
The FMR R and V-Series sprayers provide a comprehensive solution for vineyard spraying, balancing economic, environmental, and social benefits while maintaining high standards of safety and efficiency.

20 REASONS WHY AN R OR V-SERIES SPRAYER IS THE SMART CHOICE FOR COMMERCIAL VINEYARD OPERATIONS. Every drop on the crop. 1. R and V-Series sprayers generate air independently from the spray droplets. With the right nozzle selection, this enables precise control of droplet size and spray volume. 2. The Tangential Fan system delivers an even curtain of high volume, low pressure air from the top to the bottom of the fan. This eliminates ‘striping’ and uneven coverage that can occur with systems requiring more complex or frequent setup alterations. 3. Targeted application. The ability to turn nozzles...

12. A robust chassis and frame is a feature of all R and V-Series sprayers. All are built to accommodate the maximum weight of a fully spec’d R-Series machine. 13. Structural steelwork is galvanised for long lasting corrosion resistance. Other steel components are made from stainless steel or brass. 14. Electrics, electronics, valves, pumps and hydraulic blocks are mounted at the rear of the sprayer on a sliding tray for ease-of-access. All components are secure and can be locked away if required. 15. Hydraulic hoses and electrical cables are covered or shielded to prevent damage during operation...
