SPRAY NOZZLES THAT WORK WITHOUT BOOMS   
ENGINEERED TO SAVE TIME AND MONEY - BUILT TO LAST, AND LAST, AND LAST! 

FINALLY ... thanks to a new and patented nozzle technology, all types of spraying applications can be completed fast and easy without the need for booms.
AND ... there are no small, fine mesh strainers to stop up in Boom Buster nozzles.
AND ... Boom Buster nozzles cost less to install and less to maintain than spray booms.
GUARANTEED ... Boom Buster nozzles are guaranteed against defects in material and workmanship.


  • FEATURES
    All nozzles machined from solid stainless steel.  All have replaceable industrial grade nylon diffusers. (Tests have shown that this nylon will outlast stainless steel.)

  • Extra wide spray pattern.

  • Excellent pattern and distribution.

  • All models spray chemicals and fertilizers.

  • All nozzles have standard pipe threads.

  • USES

  • Row Crops, Grain and Pastures

  • State and County Right-of-Ways

  • Orchards and Vineyards

  • Forestry and Utility Right-of-Ways

  • Lawn and Turf

  • Roads, Hedge Rows and Fence Rows

 

NOZZLE INSTALLATION

  1. For single nozzle installation, the supply line from the pump must be one pipe size larger than the nozzle thread size.  Example, if the nozzle has a 1/2" thread, the supply line must be 3/4".  A 3/4" nozzle must have a 1" supply line, etc.
  2. For dual (2) nozzles mounted back to back on the same supply line, the supply line must be two sizes larger than the nozzle pipe thread.  Two 3/4" nozzles require a 1 1/4" supply line, etc.
  3. These nozzles were installed and tested at a height of 48" above ground.  The can be operated lower or higher than 48".
  4. Some Boom Buster nozzles must be installed with the nozzle angled up.  Some are installed with the nozzle angled down.  Others are installed level with the ground.  This is necessary and important for proper operation of the nozzle.
  5. Set nozzle angle up, level, or down as necessary to achieve the correct distance in feet as specified in the chart.
  6. In order to operate nozzles independently of each other, install nozzles on separate lines with manual or electric cut-off valves, a pressure gauge, and a pressure regulator for each nozzle.
  7. Nozzles should be mounted close enough together to insure proper overlap between the nozzles.
  8. Mounting nozzles with street elbows allows for quick and easy nozzle adjustment.

OPERATION

  1. In multiple pass spraying, the end of the pattern should overlap approximately 18"
  2. Use effective distance in feet for all calculations.  See effective distance in feet in chart.
  3. Be sure to use enough water.  University field tests have shown that when applied with ground equipment, most chemicals work better with 25 or more gallons of water per acre.
  4. A course mesh inline strainer may be necessary if tank or water supply becomes contaminated with large particles.
  5. Small mesh nozzle strainers are not necessary due to the large orifice opening in these nozzles.
  6. In some applications, except for the small nozzles, these nozzles can be operated at speeds up to thirty miles per hour.
  7. With these nozzles, as with aerial and other methods of spraying, high and gusty wind can cause some pattern shifting.  This can be minimized by spraying just above the crop or ground to be sprayed

SPRAY IT SAFE!
Wear protective clothing while spraying and handle all chemicals with care.
