Up and down hills or through boggy conditions, the 74V1 spray controller compensates for changes in speed, pump pressure or section shutdown to maintain the target rate you select.
The 74V1 can also simultaneously manage multiple tanks with individual rates. Perfect for those dual rate systems. Couple this with the inbuilt Jobs setup & easy to use “Tile” & “Tab” system, the 74V1 is the perfect spray rate controller for any farming operation.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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)
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.
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.
