Short Pattern Spray Nozzles
All Short Pattern Spray Nozzles were tested at a height of 18 inches. (Recommended operating height is between 12 & 36 inches.) These nozzles are designed for left-hand or right-hand mounting and provide an outward to straight downward spray pattern.
Roadside Spray Nozzles
All Roadside Spray Nozzles were tested at a height of 36 inches. (Recommended operating height is between 18 & 48 inches.) These nozzles are designed for right-hand mounting ONLY and provide a wide spray pattern without kickback under the nozzle. These nozzles are designed for road-side and right-of-way spraying.
Regular Pattern Spray Nozzles
All Regular Pattern Spray Nozzles were tested at a height of 36 inches. (Recommended operating height is between 18 & 48 inches.) These nozzles are designed for left-hand or right-hand mounting and provide a wide spray pattern with approximately 15° of kickback under the nozzle. When using left-hand and right-hand nozzles together, adjust the nozzles to allow for enough kickback overlap between the nozzles to prevent streaking in spray coverage. Nozzles can be rotated to adjust distance of spray pattern outward or amount of kickback under the nozzle.
Full Pattern Spray Nozzles
All Full Pattern Spray Nozzles were tested at a height of 36 inches. (Recommended operating height is between 18 & 48 inches.) These nozzles are designed to provide a full left-hand to right-hand spray pattern from a single centrally mounted nozzle.
Multi-Pass Spraying
When multi-pass spraying, be sure to overlap the ends of spray patterns 12-16 inches to ensure even coverage.
Nozzle Height Adjustment
Nozzles can be used at various heights within the recommended range. However, this will affect the spray pattern width and the gallons per acre (GPA) applied. Refer to the Conversion Formula page.
Adverse Wind Conditions
With boomless spray nozzles, as with other spraying methods, high or gusty wind conditions can cause drifting or pattern movements, adversely affecting spray coverage. If this occurs, wait for more favorable conditions before continuing.
Plumbing Requirements
Make sure that all plumbing components and feed lines can properly supply the nozzle or nozzles at their rated GPM and PSI. The type of pump used as well as the size and length of the feed line will also affect how efficiently the volume is delivered to the nozzle or nozzles. Minimum hose size and plumbing requirements are
| NOZZLE QTY. | NOZZLE SIZE | HOSE SIZE |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1/4" MNPT Nozzle | 1/2" ID Hose |
| 2 | 1/4" MNPT Nozzles | 3/4" ID Hose |
| 1 | 1/2" MNPT Nozzle | 1" ID Hose |
| 2 | 1/2" MNPT Nozzles | 1" ID Hose |
| 1 | 1" MNPT Nozzles | 1 - 1/4" Hose |
| 2 | 1" MNPT Nozzles | 1 - 1/2" Hose |
Proper Nozzle Operation
To insure proper nozzle operation all pressure readings must be taken directly before the nozzle or nozzles.
Nozzle Mounting Center Distance
To insure proper kickback overlap between the two nozzles and spray distance outward when mounting a pair of regular pattern nozzles together these are the recommended nozzle center distances.
| NOZZLE QTY. | NOZZLE SIZE | HOSE SIZE |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1/4" Nozzles | 3" - 4" Center Distance |
| 2 | 1/2" Nozzles | 6" - 7" Center Distance |
| 2 | 1" Nozzles | 8" - 9" Center Distance |
Nozzle Combinations for Roadside and Right-of-Way Spraying
| 2 - 12 MPH | |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1255 Right |
| 1 | 1871 Right |
| 1 | 2650RS |
| 5-15 MPH | |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1876 Right |
| 1 | 2651 Right |
| 1 | 3750RS |
For roadside and right-of-way spraying at these speeds, nozzles with patterns of 6 feet or less should be mounted 12" - 24" above the ground. Larger patterns should be mounted 18" - 48" above the ground.
