FLEXIBILITY IN THE FIELD

For heavy and light weed patches, you can increase or decrease rates on-the-go and an OPTIONAL master switch box gives instant stop/start control at headlands or when refilling. With the ability to handle multiple tanks and multiple rates at the same time the 74V1 is a truly flexible unit that can stand up to any challenge in the field.

74V1 Spray Controller & UniPOD

The Australian designed and built UniPOD is re-configurable to suit many different requirements. Our UniPOD is also known as an ECU. A single UniPOD can be used to monitor pressure and control 12 Spray Sections, or 8 Spray sections plus dump and line valves and a bidirectional control valve. To add more sensor inputs, sections or control valves, simply add one or more UniPODs to the CANbus line.

THE 74V1 IS UP TO THE CHALLENGE

Clever status tiles tell the operator at a glance when the sprayer is operating 100% on target.
Alarm high & low points can be setup and displayed on any tile or tab. In the event of any change, a red visual & audible alarm is activated. (Example alarms : rate, tank level, speed etc)
In consideration of quality assurance demands, spray records for virtually unlimited trips are maintained with time/date stamping. An export function is also available.
Set-up and calibration options can be locked out to avoid unauthorised tampering.
The 74V1 will also have the ability to load application shape files for Variable Rate Control (VRC) spraying.

ADVANCED CONTROL FEATURES

CONTROL OPTIONS

Out of the box our 74V1 kit can control from 1-10 sections. This includes the usage of pressure relief valve (PRV), proportional flow control valve, precision flow sensor and any motorised section control valves to suit boom sprayers and low volume horticultural sprayers.

SLOW HOLD

When slowing at headlands or around obstacles, the slow hold facility avoids pressure drop and loss of spray coverage by automatically holding the control valve at a minimum operating pressure.

MULTI-STEP CONTROL

A system that works with different size nozzles in each spray line. The controller automatically selects first, second or both spraylines to maintain the best working pressure. This results in smoother transition from one line to the other and even greater flexibility in rates and working speeds.

OPTIONAL DUMP

An optional dump valve is available to divert pump delivery back to the tank whenever the master switch or section valves are switched off. (This is highly recommended if using a diaphragm pump)

2ND SPAYLINE

The optional second sprayline is activated automatically when the first spray line reaches maximum pressure. The benefits of second sprayline have been proven for over 15 years. – Ask us how.

PRESSURE CONTROL

A pressure sensor can be added to provide a pressure read-out and pressure-based control of the slow hold and second sprayline functions.

The 74V1 will accept radar, magnetic wheel sensor or GPS NMEA strings. Alternative control valves and sensors are available for high volume airblast and ultra low volume applications. If you would like to integrate our solution to your application – we can help.
