NOTE: The electrical connection must be made through a load-protected circuit. Use the harness provided in the liquid
incorporation kit which includes an activation relay. This harness and the standard harvester wiring can be used for
other Tier liquid incorporation systems as long as it drives through the DION-Ag relay harness. These parts are available
through DION-Ag parts department: Relay Cable (part# 30896) and Extension Cable (#31511).
FLOW CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
FIGURE 74
The system must be calibrated to ensure the correct dosage of liquid/inoculant is applied to the crop.
1. Fill the reservoir with clean water, 10-15l (3-4gal.) is sufficient.
2. Adjust the system pressure to the pressure corresponding to the desired flow.
3. Purge all air from the system by allowing the water to exit the nozzle until the flow is uninterrupted.
4. Inside the accelerator, place an empty bucket (see arrow) under the nozzle (item 2) to collect the water.
5. Collect the water dispensed by the system by running the system for 1 minute.
6. Measure the water volume collected during 1 minute.
7. Make the necessary adjustments to the system pressure until the desired flow is obtained.
