Silvan unveils 1100 litre sprayer

Silvan Australia has expanded its three point linkage Super Series sprayer range to include the 1100 litre sprayer, the biggest in the line-up.

Other models in the range include the 400, 600 and 800 litre
sprayers.

Silvan says the addition of the new sprayer comes as a result of
ongoing product improvement and development after taking into
account users experiences and requirements.

On top of an increased tank volume, Silvan says the 1100 litre
sprayer has extra features for convenience including a Camlock
bottom fill added for tank filling from a ground level and a
chemical suction probe for safe chemical transfer.

The tank design also ensures weight is carried close to the
tractor and the control valves are easy to reach. Both the 800 and
1100 litre models offer an optional 70 litre capacity freshwater
flush tank that is moulded to fit within the shape of the main
spray tank and its galvanised steel structural frame.

 The optional tank allows users to safely flush the spray
tank, filter, boom and spray nozzles ready for the next
application.

Silvan also adds the entire Super Series range now features a
redesigned boom frame to utilise a vertical steel boom channel
which employs four fixing bolts enabling the boom to be adjusted
and positioned to the ideal spray height for crops or pastures.

Silvan Product Specialist David Carr says feedback from growers
indicated they wanted to be able to adjust the height of the spray
boom to suit their field conditions.

“Silvan is able to offer a wide choice of galvanised steel booms
where the boom height above the pasture or crop level can be
adjusted to the desired height by sliding the boom up or down the
new mounting channel and then securing it in the desired position
using a four bolt connector.

Booms that can be fitted to the Super Series sprayer include
Silvan’s Devil or Rowmaster Booms, the manual fold Field and
Fieldmaster boom,s the Olive and Vine booms or the boomless Casotti
Sprayer which Silvan says is ideal for use in awkward or hard to
reach places.

The traditional features of the Silvan Three Point Linkage
sprayer range have also been retained.

These include the impact resistant low profile Polytuff
polyehthylene spray tank carried within the sturdy hot dip
galvanised steel frame with an improved adjustable hitch system to
suit a wide range of tractor mounting points.

The raised pump mounting height also enables the ideal alignment
of the PTO shaft from the sprayer to the tractor.

Options that customers can fit to the sprayer range include
electric control valves, automatic rate controllers, foam markers,
and hose reels with pressure hose and spray gun for spot spraying
applications.
