WEEDit 4000 I 6000
Overview
6000 OR 4000 LITRE MAIN TANK
Spot spraying sensors or optional blanket line can be run from the main tank, utilising the dual pumps simultaneously. As an example, a pre-emergent herbicide could be applied through the blanket line, while the spot spray line may apply a knockdown herbicide to existing weeds.
TWIN HYDRAULIC DRIVE CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS
The advantages of the 900L/min centrifugal pump for spot spraying and blanket applications is that it can respond and deliver from zero to very high volumes almost instantly as required. Optional ForceField stainless steel pump available for dry run protection.
1100 LITRE HOT TANK
Spot spraying sensors are run from the Hot Tank. A common strategy used to delay the onset of herbicide resistance is to use a more concentrated combination of chemicals for spot spraying. This is often referred to as the 'hot mix' that becomes affordable when only spraying 10% of the paddock with the WEED-IT system.
CHASSIS AND AXLE
The chassis encompasses a simple robust design with a 3 metre air suspension axle and an automatic ride height valve.
AIR RIDE BOOM SUSPENSION
Featuring airbags to control ride‑height. The system utilises coil springs to provide fast and responsive ride for the sensors. The enhanced ride assists with detection of weeds on both compression and rebound, minimising metal fatigue across the machine.
CHEMICAL HANDLING
- 60 litre Chem-e-flush
- Integrated suction probe transports chemical directly into the tank without putting neat chemical through the pump
- 12 volt chemical transfer pump system comes complete with micromatic couplings
CENTRAL CONTROL PANEL
From a central point, the operator can take charge of all the filling, mixing and flushing.
When the operator camlocks a 2 in. filling hose to the non-return valve on the sprayer, they can select to fill the spot spray tank, flush tank or main tank.
The electronic flow metre measures part tank filling.
The secondary rotary valve allows selection of the chemical suction probe, 60 litre Chem-e-flush hopper or return to spray position.
The control panel also allows selection of spot spray tank rinse, main tank rinse, agitator and chemical suction probe rinse through a series of valves.
Optional Visio display for in‑cab tank level reading.
