| How to Determine Pump Capacity for Your Sprayer |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pump Capacity (GPM) = Boom Requirement (GPM) + Agitation Requirement (GPM) |
|
|
|
Boom Requirement (GPM) = Number of nozzles x flow rate per nozzle (GPM at desired PSIG) |
|
|
|
Agitation Requirement (GPM) = 5% of total tank volume if using liquids; 10% if using wettable powders |
|
|
| Example: |
|
|
|
|
A boom with extended range 80-4R tips (0.40 GPM
at 40 PSIG) and a 200 gallon tank with tank agitation. |
|
|
|
Pump Capacity = (17 x 0.40) + (5% of 200) |
|
|
|
Pump Capacity = 6.8 + 10.0 |
|
|
|
Pump Capacity = 16.8 GPM |
