For non-standard nozzles, the calibration must be repeated at a different pressure. This pressure should be about as high as the intended working pressure.
 
 
WARNING
Spray liquid or spray liquid residues
Danger of poisoning or chemical burning
1.
Clean the spray liquid tank thoroughly prior to calibration. The field sprayer must be free of spray liquids or spray liquid residues.
2.
Use only clear water during calibration.
3.
Wear required protective equipment.
 
 
 
Procedure
 
 
 
Calibrate a standard nozzle as follows:
þ
The tank is filled with clear water.
þ
There are no spray liquid residues in the tank or the pipelines.
1.
 FS_JR3_Regelung AUTO MANU - On the work screen, switch the application mode to manual.
2.
 FS_JR3_Regelung EIN AUS - Start application.
3.
 FS_JR3_Regelung-Sollwert +10 and  FS_JR3_Regelung Sollwert -10 - Set the spray pressure to 3 bar.
4.
Using a measuring cup, collect the water from several nozzles for one minute each.
5.
Calculate average application rate.
6.
 FS_JR3_Regelung EIN AUS - Stop application.
7.
 FS_JR3_Regelung AUTO MANU - Activate automatic mode.
8.
Switch to the "Calibration" screen:
 FS_JR3_Einstellungn-Menü >  FS_JR3_Düsen Assistent >  FS_JR3_Düsen-Kalibrieren
9.
On the "Nozzle" line – select nozzle for calibration. Standard nozzles are referred to by their colours.
10.
In the box below the "New reference point" line, enter the calculated average quantity in l/min.
11.
For undefined nozzles, you must also enter the nozzle's minimum output in the "2nd reference point" parameter. To do so, you must repeat the procedure at a different pressure.
You have calibrated the selected nozzle.
