1. Click the ‘Get Form’ button to obtain the Sprayer Calibration Worksheet and open it for editing.
2. To calculate the sprayer speed, first mark two points 200 to 800 feet apart. Drive from one mark to the other, timing the journey in seconds with a half-loaded sprayer. Measure the time for a return trip and average both timings.
3. Using the speed calculated above, determine the desired spray rate in gallons per minute (GPM). Input the nozzle spacing, speed in MPH, and required gallons per acre (GPA) as per product label.
4. Measure the actual spray rate by collecting liquid from each nozzle using a graduated container. Record the amount collected in ounces per minute and convert GPM to ounces per second as needed.
5. Record the ounces collected from each nozzle in the provided chart and assess if results are within ±5% of desired rates. Calculate the upper and lower limits using the error formula.
6. If nozzles are off by more than 5%, inspect them for blockages or wear. Clean or replace as necessary. Adjust nozzles or speed to maintain correct GPA.
7. Once all fields are completed and reviewed, save changes. Users can download, print, or share the filled-out form as needed.
