Greetings!
Welcome to the August issue of the SDI Email Newsletter. If you have topics or ideas you would like to see integrated into future newsletters please email me at sam@sprayingdevices.com with your suggestions. |
Last month's newsletter highlighted the Computerized Spray Control systems that we offer at SDI. While these types of controls can help to make your spray operation more precise, they can be out of the budget for many users. The more economical SDI EC-VM400 spray controls may be another option for you.
SDI EC-VM400  | The SDI EC-VM400 control system consists of a control box and motorized valves that allow the operator to control the output of spray through the boom. This group of controls is considered pressure based and typically feature a pressure gauge as a prominent component of the control box.
As you can see on the above picture, there are three switches at the top right that control the individual section of the boom. The two switches at the bottom of the box control the pressure (on the left) and a master on/off for the boom. The pressure gauge allows the operator to monitor the application pressure.
The control box is connected to the metered bypass motorized valves on the spray boom by a wire harness. We offer a wire harness extension for trailer mounted sprayers.
The SDI EC-VM400 spray control system offers a high quality, yet economical alternative to a computerized control system.
