HYPRO ® SPRAY NOZZLE SELECTION GUIDE

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document is a technical guide focused on spray nozzle selection for agricultural applications, specifically targeting the reduction of spray drift and optimizing spray coverage.
Specifications: The guide highlights various nozzle types such as GuardianAIR, GuardianAIR Twin, 3D Nozzle, and VP Nozzle. Each nozzle type is associated with specific applications like systemic, contact, and translaminar chemical movements in plants.
Procedures: The document emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate nozzle based on the type of chemical being sprayed (e.g., insecticides, herbicides, fungicides) and the target (e.g., crop leaves, stems, soil uptake).
Recommendations: It is recommended to use Guardian Air and Guardian Air Twin nozzles at 3 bar pressure for optimal coverage and lower pressures for drift reduction. Users are advised to comply with agrochemical labels or manufacturer’s advice regarding spray quality.
Tools: The document mentions the 'Spray It' Spray Nozzle Selection App and the Spray It Calculator, available on the Apple Store and Android Market, to assist users in selecting the appropriate nozzle.
Key Considerations: The primary concerns addressed are reducing spray drift and ensuring adequate spray coverage. The document notes that spray quality and drift reduction vary with pressure, and users should refer to the pocket guide for detailed information.
