The Speedy 2500
The Speedy family is constructed with multiple main focus area’s including operator safety and to reduce the operator exposure to pesticide contamination; efficiency – traditionally field spray operations has included 2 trial officer, Speedy are operated by 1 field officer only. The officer are mounted on the sprayer which have included GPS steering and speed control calibrated to each field conditions – automatic spray program controlling up to 8 treatment per loading in 4 replicated trials, automatic water filling systems, rinsing of pre measured pesticides bottles and total cleaning and washing of syringes and nozzle – the entire spray system without any officer handling. It is easy to handle without any heavy lifting and the spray boom operates protected to guard the officer and provides field test spray in wind speed up to 7 m/s. Compressed air are produced by the sprayer.
The sprayer is designed together with official field-testing units, all authorized contractor companies and Official Research institutes which are officially recognized by the competent authorities to carry out field registration trials in accordance with the principles of Good Experimental Practice (GEP).
The main purpose of the product
The main use of the product is field testing of traditional pesticides and bio pesticides including liquid fertilizers.
What makes the product unique?
- Focus on operator exposure and operating safety
- Easy to operate and high operating range as being pulled by standard car
- Compressed Air are produced by the sprayer it self
- All parameters linked to the spray operations are stored, e.g. water flow, speed, operations pressure
- Duplicate farmer practice
