Precision spraying is one of the most important things farmers can do to reduce damage to crops from either under or over spraying, and for that reason, Innotech’s SpotOn Sprayer Calibrator Model SC-1 has become standard equipment for many growers.
Now, Innoquest has taken a major step forward, releasing the SC-2 model that more than doubles the measurable flow rate and increases accuracy and precision by an impressive 20 per cent.
Innoquest says the new SC-2 model is now able to measure flow rates of up to 2.25 gallons per minute (GPM), up from its predecessor’s 1 GPM capacity. At the same time, accuracy of spray is increased from plus/minus 2.5% in the older model, to 2% in the SC-2.
The SC-2 also adds some important new features.
It now calculates tip wear in % and application rate in GPA/LPH and provides reliable readings quickly without the need for manual calculations or downloading of an app. Once the user has entered speed and nozzle spacing, the unit will automatically calculate:
- Tip Flow Rate in GPM, LPM, oz/min
- Tip Wear in %
- Application Rate in GPA/LPH
“Our goal was to add features that benefit every user of our industry-leading handheld sprayer calibrator. The SC-2 accomplishes this without sacrificing our hallmark ultra-simple operation.” says Bill Hughes, President of Innoquest.
Having a durable and accurate meter to easily calibrate sprayers saves time and money, says Huges, making the SC-2 a must-have for quick verification of sprayer operation.
