| Q: | Which kit do I need for my particular sprayer? | |||
| A: | All kits are custom built for individual sprayers. |
|||
| Q: | What is the cost of the foam? | |||
| A: | Cost per acre depends on the operator, as 100% controlled by
the operator. The average operator with an 80-ft sprayer can get
between 500 and 800 acres per 30-liter tank. |
|||
| Q: | How does it work? | |||
| A: | The cylinders are pre-charged with compressed gas that
propels the foam to the end of the boom. The kit has a dispenser on both
sides that is controlled from the cab. The foam mark length and
distance between marks are controlled from the cab. The system also
has an override button on the timer box. This button enables the
operator to instantly drop a foam mark at any time during the cycle
without interrupting the timing. The system does not use pumps or
compressors. It is virtually trouble free. |
|||
| Q: | How do I winterize my kit? | |||
| A: | All that needs to be done is close four valves. Remove
the tank, and store in cold storage. There is no need to protect it from
freezing.
|
|||
| Q: | How long will it take for delivery of the kit? | |||
| A: | Each kit is custom made for the customer when it is ordered
and generally shipped within 24 hours. |
|||
| Q: | How do I change tanks? | |||
| A: | Close tank valve. Close valve on outlet side of
filter. This isolates the filter from the rest of the kit and allows
the operator to release the pressure by opening the valve on the drain
hose. This also back flushes the filter screen, thus avoiding a need
to ever open the filter assembly for cleaning. Once the pressure is
released, you can remove the fitting from the tank. |
|||
| Q: | How long does the foam last in the field? | |||
| A: | Depending on the temperature and the wind, the foam can last
from 2 to 8 hours or more. The Peacock Foam is very sticky and
biodegradable. |
|||
| Q: | Can it be colored? | |||
| A: | Yes, dye is available in red and blue. A dye injection
kit is an option and can be used on the farm. |
|||
| Q: | What is the available warranty? | |||
| A: | All parts have a two-year warranty from date of purchase. |
|||
| Q: | How long does it take to install the kit? | |||
| A: | 2 - 3 hours |
