Micromax Tractor Mounted CDA Sprayer
Designed for vehicle-mounted blanket applications, Micromax is a spinning disc rotary atomiser for Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) of most water-based agrochemicals including herbicides, insecticides and fungicides.
Thanks to the low-volume CDA technology, Micromax produces only the spray droplet sizes that are appropriate for the particular application resulting in considerable savings compared with hydraulic nozzles. Optimum droplet sizes also minimise any risk of environmental contamination.
Low volume application allows lower chemical dosages and economical use of adjuvants. It also enables the use of lightweight spray vehicles for minimised soil compaction. Because of the lower liquid requirement, greater areas can be sprayed per tank load delivering savings in terms of cost, time and effort.
The electrically driven Micromax can be powered using the vehicle battery and can be mounted on tractor booms or ATV’s.
The unique disc design ensures controlled spray atomisation over a wide range of liquid feed rates. One of three disc rotational speeds, and thus varying spray droplet sizes, can be selected to fit different applications.
Micromax is also available as the DD direct drive version for blanket applications
“We recently had our Amazone UF1801 boom sprayer converted into a CDA sprayer for work on our 1000 hectare farm. Fitted with Micron Micromax rotary CDA atomisers, the converted sprayer allows us to use as little as 30 litres per hectare with excellent results. I’m confident it is providing the crops with the same protection as a conventional sprayer. What is more, we have reduced the amounts of chemicals used – in some cases by a half.“
