British sprayer specialist Knight Farm Machinery has entered the market for liquid applicator systems with a range based on its proven line of sprayer front tanks.
The new product offering is designed to provide precise application of crop nutrition and protection products via rear mounted equipment such as drills, seeders and potato planters. Three tank sizes are available – 1,300, 1,500 and 1,900 litres – with a comprehensive standard specification and an array of options to suit customer needs.
All models are built on a heavy-duty steel chassis protected by a robust two pack paint coating and incorporating parking stand legs for easy storage when not in use. An integral headstock enables easy mounting to a tractor three-point linkage, and the chassis also incorporates full road lighting and safety markers.
Tanks are corrosion resistant and roto-moulded to a profile that maximises operator visibility. Specification includes a front fill point with filtration screen, high volume centrifugal pump and rear delivery pipe, and electronic transfer with in-cab control. The tank profile incorporates tank wash heads supplied by a separate clean water tank, plus a hand-wash tank.
Multiple options are available to match applicator design to customer needs. These include fully computerised independent rate and pressure control, ISOBUS connectivity via the tractor’s front ISOBUS connection, and an ISOBUS control terminal. Further specification can include Knight’s PRO series whirlpool induction hopper, automated tank fill capability, and a six-cylinder diaphragm pump.
