Variations in height along the same boom may vary by 10 to 15 cm causing very little or no overlap in areas where the boom is too low. To overcome the possibility of having misses in the field, the tapered-edge flat fan nozzle with a spray angle of 110-degrees is recommended. When the 110-degree nozzle tip is set at 46 cm (18 inches) above the target at 275 kPa (40 psi) with nozzle spacing of 50 cm (20 inches), the spray pattern from one nozzle extends to the middle of the adjacent spray pattern. This 100 per cent overlap will allow for boom height variations to occur without creating misses between nozzle patterns. - (cont'd) - Average Target Height ydlbcrra AGRICULTURE Phone: (403) 427-2121 Print Media Branch.
