Description
Agricultures (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS) who has worked close with the Dept. ofDefenses Deployed Warfighter Protection Program (DWFP) to evaluate a number of sprayers used tospray pest control products targeted insect vectors of human and animal diseases. Using facilities at theU.S. Navy Entomology Center of Excellence, nearly 100 different sprayers have been tested for dropletsize under various operational setups (nozzles, pressured, flowrates, spray solutions, etc). Over thepast several years, this data has been incorporated into an extensive database. This app provides userswith a quick, easily searchable interface that returns droplet size data for the specified operational setup.The database is structured such that users are requested to select specific operational parameters whichinclude:- Company Name (of the spray system used)- Spray System (model number)- Solution Type (carrier solution used)- Additive/Insecticide- Sprayer Setting/Nozzle- Pressure (psi)- Flowrate (oz/min)- DilutionUsing the above specified parameters, the app will provide droplet size results to the user. Theseinclude:- DV0.1, DV0.5, and DV0.9o Droplet size (in m) such that 10, 50, or 90% of the spray volume, respectively, iscontained in spray droplet sizes of equal or less.The results, along with the initial parameters, are time and date stamped and can be saved to the usersdevice under any name of their choice. The app allows for these results to be emailed to any address oftheir choice. The saved results can be viewed or emailed at any time.
