The guide also contains information on selecting broadcast and fertilizer spray tips based on droplet size, fertilizer application, liquid density conversion, and specialty application tip selection.

Product Usage Instructions

Spray Tip Selection for Crops
Select the right spray tip for crop protection product application in crops at different growth stages. Check out the TeeJet Spray Tip Selection Guide for information on spray tips that provide maximum coverage and efficacy while reducing drift. Refer to the guide for selecting spray tips that suit corn, soybean, and wheat applications.

product Broadcast and Fertilizer Spray Tip Selection

Select the appropriate spray tip based on the droplet size required for soil applied herbicides, post-emergence herbicides, systemic fungicides, contact fungicides, contact insecticides, and systemic insecticides. Use the TeeJet Spray Tip Selection Guide to select the right spray tip for broadcast and fertilizer application. The guide also contains information on directed spraying and drift control.

Liquid Fertilizer Application

When selecting a specific capacity tip for liquid fertilizer application, always correct for liquid density. Use the TeeJet Spray Tip Selection Guide to determine the correct nozzle size based on the desired application rate. Refer to page 185 of the guide for a list of density conversion factors.

product Specialty Application Tip Selection

Refer to the TeeJet Spray Tip Selection Guide for selecting the  right spray tip for banded, even, soil applied herbicides, post-emergence herbicides, systemic fungicides, contact fungicides, contact insecticides, and systemic insecticides. The guide also contains information on directed spraying.

SPRAY TIP SELECTION FOR CROPS

Crop protection product application in crops occurs at different growth stages. The right spray tip selection will result in maximum coverage and efficacy while reducing drift. TeeJet has several spray tips that perfectly balance coverage and drift reduction. Check out some examples of TeeJet spray tips that most suit applications in corn, soybean, and wheat.

BROADCAST & FERTILIZER SPRAY TIP SELECTION GUIDE

Note: Consult the chemical manufacturer’s product label for specific rate and application recommendations. Droplet size categories shown are based on ISO 25358. *(XF) Extremely Fine, (VF) Very Fine, (F) Fine, (M) Medium, (C) Coarse, (VC) Very Coarse, (XC) Extremely Coarse, (UC) Ultra Coarse

LIQUID FERTI LIZER APPLICATION
Just as in applying crop protection products, the proper application of liquid fertilizer is important. Delivering nutrients to the crop in a timely and effective manner while minimizing crop damage is essential. TeeJet Technologies offers an extensive selection of spray tips specifically designed to maximize the performance of your liquid fertilizer application. Solid stream nozzles, offered in both single and multiple-stream versions, are designed to deliver fertilizer to the soil surface where it can be effectively utilized by the crop. By creating solid liquid streams, these tips greatly reduce foliar coverage in standing crop in order to minimize leaf burn. TeeJet Technologies StreamJet tips provide the ideal blend of compact, reliable design, ease of installation and affordable pricing. In some cases, the use of a broadcast nozzle for fertilizer application may be desirable. This could include combined fertilizer/pesticide applications, foliar feeding or broadcast liquid fertilization of bare ground. For these applications TeeJet Technologies offers a wide variety of low drift, flat spray tips.

LIQUID D E NSIT Y CONVER SION
When selecting a specific capacity tip for liquid fertilizer application, always correct for liquid density. Application charts shown in this catalog are based on spraying water. Many fertilizer solutions are denser than water, which will affect the application rate. Please see page 185 for a list of density conversion factors.

EXAMPLE

• Desired application rate is 100 l/ha of 1.28 kg/l Nitrogen. Determine the correct nozzle size as follows:
• I/ha (liquid other than water) x Conversion Factor = I/ha*
• 100 l/ha (1.28 kg/l solution) x 1.13 = 113 l/ha (water)
• The applicator should choose a tip size that will supply 113 l/ha  of water at the desired pressure.
• From table in catalog.
