Vario and Select mode - configuring multiple nozzle holders
 
The job computer enables simultaneous use of several nozzles that are mounted on a multiple nozzle holder. This enables spraying with a constant drop size even when the speed changes.
 
 
 
 
Mode of operation
 
 
The faster the field sprayer is driving, the greater the pressure required in the nozzles to maintain the planned application rate. This makes the drops continuously smaller until the nozzles must be changed. The driver of a field sprayer without Vario-Select must therefore maintain the optimal speed for the mounted nozzles.
The Vario and Select operating modes allow the driver to change the nozzles without interrupting work.
"Select" is used to manually activate the desired nozzles.
"Vario" changes the nozzles automatically as soon as the speed makes it necessary. In doing so, this version can even activate several nozzles simultaneously to ensure optimum pressure and drop size at any speed.
 
 
 
Licenses
 
The mode is defined by the field sprayer manufacturer.
Systems that only have Select activated can only control double nozzle holders.
Systems with a Vario license can control double and quadruple nozzle holders. Furthermore, these systems also enable manual switching in Select mode. A Vario license can be purchased.
