GENERAL EQUIPMENT - NOZZLES DUST SUPPRESSION

DUST SUPPRESSION ON ROADS USING THE WIDE ANGLE LARGE CAPACITY FLOODJET  -  1 K 450

Vehicles on farm roads create huge amounts of dust.  It settles on the crops.  Farmers are not happy.  Putting up signs showing speed limits and or warnings about the effects of dust on the crops are, like most laws, merely ignored.   So the next best thing is to tackle the problem with water and keeping the roads moist during dry periods. Here's a setup showing four huge Floodjets used by the road construcion companies. 
The farmer may need only one.  The problem! Tank capacity.  Each of these nozzles guzzles up 290 litres per minute at 2 bar.   Mounted correctly and fed with right pump it will achieve a swath of about 6 metres. 


Here's a pic of  the B1K450.  1 inch BSPT inlet and nominal orifice diameter of 18mm.
