by the minimum nozzle flow multiplied by the number of nozzles
activated. Refer to nozzle manufacturer’s information.
l Reverse dump valve: The dump valve releases liquid back to the
tank. In some cases the valve may have been wired to work in the
opposite direction. To allow the dump valve to work in reverse,
select Reverse Dump Valve.
l Balanced valves: The sprayer software is capable of controlling
systems that use balanced valves. These valves, when closed,
bypass the flow from the boom section back to the tank. This
bypass flow is adjustable. This enables the system to maintain
sprayer pressure when turning the sections off or on. In a normal
system, when a section is turned off, the sprayer is working with a
lesser width, and the regulator reduces the pressure to maintain
the flow rate for the remaining sprayer width. This can affect the
nozzle performance and thus the effectiveness of the sprayer. With
a balanced valve system, the pressure is maintained and thus the
spray pattern will always be optimal. Refer to Valve balancing
wizard, page 51 for instructions on balancing the valves.
