It refers only to technical suitability and does not absolve the user from legal obligations relating to health and safety at any stage. This British Standard is designed for use by appropriately qualifie

The BSI copyright date displayed in this document indicates when the document was last issued.BS 8412:2004 BSI 04 June 2004 1 1 Scope This British Standard specifies five levels of performanc

9、e for boom sprayers designed to make spatially variable applications of crop protection chemicals to arable crops. It also specifies a verification procedure. This standard is applicable to configurations of tractor mounted, trailed and self-propelled sprayers with a boom width of greater than 6.0 m

10、. Small boom sprayers with boom widths of less than 6.0 m that could be used in amenity areas or horticultural production are not within the scope of this standard. The purpose of the standard is to enable recommendations for the spatially variable application of plant protection products to be made

11、 using the defined five performance levels. Performance levels are defined in relation to the range of dose rates that can be delivered and the spatial resolution of the application only. It is recognized that other application factors and variables can be adjusted as part of the operation and contr

12、ol strategy of a spatially variable application systems. Such variables may include: volume rate; spray liquid concentration; spray quality; nozzle angle; forward speed; boom height. Some of these variables may be changed in order to effect a change in the applied dose rate and in this way are cover

13、ed by this standard. Matching delivery conditions other than dose rate at defined resolution is beyond the scope of this standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

17、t spray quality in terms of drift and target deposition at a defined forward speed; and b) the spatial resolution in both directions; along the boom and in the direction of travel.BS 8412:2004 2 BSI 04 June 2004 4 Specifications 4.1 General The sprayer shall conform to BS EN 907:1997 and BS EN 12761

18、-2. It shall be capable of delivering the required dose to an accuracy of better than 5 % when operating at steady state when tested according to BS 6356-1:1997. 4.2 Performance levels Five performance levels shall be defined as follows: Level 1: a system capable of delivering dose rates in the rang

19、e 75 % to 100 % of full dose across the full working width of the sprayer; Level 2: a system capable of delivering dose rates in the range 50 % to 100 % of full dose across the full working width of the sprayer; Level 3: a system capable of delivering dose rates in the range 25 % to 100 % of full do

20、se across the full working width of the sprayer or 24 m, whichever is the smaller; Level 4: a system capable of delivering dose rates in the range 25 % to 100 % of full dose across the full working width of the sprayer or 12 m, whichever is the smaller; Level 5: a system capable of delivering dose r

21、ates in the range 25 % to 100 % of full dose across the full working width of the sprayer or 6 m, whichever is the smaller. The sprayer shall conform to at least Level 1. For all levels, the system shall be capable of achieving a resolution in the direction of travel that is equal or better than res

22、olution in the transverse direction. 4.3 Verification The sprayer shall be verified in accordance with Annex A.BS 8412:2004 BSI 04 June 2004 3 Annex A (normative) Verification Measurements of flow rate and droplet size distribution within the spray shall be made from a given length of boom using the

23、 methods defined in BS 6356-1:1997. The measurements of droplet size distribution and flow rate from a given length of boom shall be made when operating at conditions corresponding to full dose rate and the reduced dose rate consistent with the performance level to be claimed. For a given instrument

24、, droplet spectra measured over the range claimed shall conform to: NOTE Measurements of flow rate and droplet size distribution within the spray are under study.and where is the volume median diameter of the droplet spectrum measured for individual settings; is the mean value of the volume median d

25、iameters of the droplet spectra measured over the range claimed; is half the difference between median diameters of the droplet spectra for the reference nozzles. Flow rates shall be accurate to 10 % throughout the claimed range. D V,0.5 D V,0.5 %D + D V,0.5 D V,0.5 %D + D V,0.5 D V,0.5 %DBS 8412:20
