SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Fertilizer is controlled through the Blue Vantage Display. You can increase or decrease fertilizer rate, turn fertilizer
function on or off, and load a prescription. Refer to your Blue Vantage manual for more information.
CENTRIFUGAL PUMP
NOTE: Keep manuals shipped with centrifugal pump with this manual.
The centrifugal pump operates off hydraulics from the bulk fill remote, which can be identified by yellow labeled hoses.
It uses a common rail delivery system with orifice and control valve to achieve desired fertilizer rate. The fertilizer
pump is factory set and has a hydraulic requirement of 4 gpm (15 Lpm).
Operating pressure while operating in the field should be 30-40 psi (207 - 276 kPa). The orifice size installed at the
factory is 0.037". If a different rate or travel speed is desired, use rate chart and install orifices for your rate. Refer to
“Fertilizer Rates - Centrifugal Pump and Piston Pump with Manifolds” on page 5-26
The centrifugal pump should be running when:
• Bulk fill remote is on (identified by yellow hoses)
• Blue Vantage system must be in a task before pump will start.
• Fertilizer is turned on in the fertilizer section of your Blue Vantage system
