Spraycom spraying components

The control unit brings together, in a single assembly, the valves that control the spray mix on its way to the boom. This version, for boom sprayers, is modular, with manual or electric actuation and constant or proportional pressure regulation.

Each assembly includes a main shut-off valve, regulating valve, maximum pressure valve, section valves and filter. It serves booms with 2 to 7 sections.

• Modular construction
• Manual or electric actuation
• Regulation: constant or proportional pressure
• Filter built into the assembly

Comet pumps, from the Tecomec Group, for boom sprayers. These diaphragm pumps work up to 15 or 20 bar, depending on the model, and range from 7.8 l/min, in the smallest, for motor-pump units, to 474 l/min in the BPV 500.

On large machines, two pumps can work in tandem to add flow or to split spraying, agitation and recirculation. For even higher flows there is the C 610 centrifugal pump, driven by a hydraulic motor: up to 655 l/min, at up to 10 bar.

• Maximum pressure: 15 or 20 bar, depending on the model
• Flow rate: 7.8 to 474 l/min for diaphragm pumps
• Series: MC, P 36/15, BP K, BP, BPX, BPS and BPV
• 2 to 6 diaphragms, in NBR, Desmopan or Viton depending on the model
• Driven by PTO, hydraulic motor, electric motor or combustion engine, depending on the model
• C 610 H and HS centrifugal: up to 655 l/min and 10 bar, with hydraulic motor

Pumps for vineyard, orchard and olive grove air-blast sprayers, from 40 to 60 bar. The body is compact to fit the limited space on the sprayer, and the construction withstands the cardan shaft loads and transmits power to the fan.

On the APS series, the parts in contact with the liquid are anodized aluminum; on the IDS, brass, which according to the manufacturer better resists abrasion and chemical corrosion. The YA and YB series are piston pumps.

• Maximum pressure: 40 to 60 bar, depending on the model
• Flow rate: 28 to 259 l/min
• Series: APS, IDS, IDS HD, YA and YB
• APS and IDS: 3 to 6 diaphragms · YA and YB: 3 or 6 pistons
• Speed: 550 rpm (APS and IDS), 600 rpm (YB) and 650 rpm (YA)
• Driven by PTO, pulley or hydraulic motor; APS, YA and YB also with electric motor or combustion engine
• APS BE versions, with hardened steel valves, for shading greenhouses with calcium carbonate

Geoline filters for the suction line, between the tank and the pump.

Available with or without a drain valve, with threaded or fork (clamp) connection.

• Body: polypropylene
• Seals: EPDM (Viton on request)
• Internal metal parts: AISI 304 stainless steel
• Fastening inserts: brass
• Cartridge: polypropylene, with AISI 304 stainless steel or polypropylene mesh

Nozzle holders clamp onto the boom pipe and hold the nozzle. They have one to five ways and come with or without anti-drip.

Nozzles are available in plastic, stainless steel, brass and ceramic, with flat fan, cone or hollow cone spray and a spray angle from 40° to 150°.

• Nozzle holder body: nylon 66
• Seals: EPDM (Viton on request)
• Metal parts: AISI 304 stainless steel
• Nozzle holder filter: polypropylene, with AISI 304 stainless steel or polypropylene mesh
• Pipe connection: 20–25 mm · 1/2"–1"
• Head joint: 3/8" or QUICK
• Working pressure: 1.5 to 20 bar (22 to 290 psi)

Geoline lids for the tank opening, in hinged, ring or screw-on models, closed or vented.

The lids accept a filter basket, and the range goes from Ø 60 to 620 mm.
