. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. PRODUCTS NEW BULLETIN DESCRIBES UNUSUAL SPRAYER A four-page bulletin describing the Hardie DF-525, a versatile duo- fan sprayer for pest and disease control in farming, park mainte- nance, vegetable and citrus crop j operations, is now available from , Ampulco/Hardie Division of Uni- versal American Corp. The DF-525 is designed to deliver maximum power with minimum fuel consumption and maintenance, the bulletin relates. The sprayer's air deUvery system is designed to oper- ate at 130 mph with an air velocity of 62,500 cfm. Its self-priming cen- trifugal pump is rated at 100 gpm at 200 psi. The new literature offering fea- tures the sprayer's three most im- portant operating advantages and cites the use of a heavy gauge stainless steel tank which affords easy, low-cost maintenance. The corrosion-resistant stainless tank is available either in 400 or 500 gallon capacities. For operating efficiency, the sprayer's design incorporates: 1. Forty separate and fully ad- justable nozzles to direct the spray in any desired pattern; 2. A choice of power plants— either a 300 cu. in. Ford gasoUne engine or a rugged Hercules 339 cu. in. diesel; 3. A duo-fan system consisting of two 26-in. axial fans which complement each other to control the intake of turbulence-free air in a straight, power packed air stream. Construction features cited in- clude aircraft-type controls which mount on the tractor to faciUtate spraying operations. Less mainte- nance is assured by the use of a mixing basket, agitator blades, and pump impeller shaft all made of stainless steel. Corrosion is further averted by the use of aluminum filler hole hardware. Operating and dimensional data of the sprayer is given in a handy table of specifications. Copies of the four-page bulletin describing the DF-525 are available by writing to Ampulco/Hardie, a division of Universal American Corp., 4200 Wissahickon Avenue, Philadelphia, Pa. 19129. 0. PERX LI
