APPS - Terragator System
The APPS UK Ltd Terragator System is primarily a method of distributing an Airborne10/water mix into the atmosphere by means of misting nozzles. These are mounted onto the back of a Terragator/Muck Spreader and are spaced at specific intervals/positions as to intercept and absorb unwanted airborne irritants such as odour, dust and bacteria as the vehicle is moving and spreading. The system uses the on board compressed air supply and the switching of the system is linked into the bed of the Terragator/muck spreader itself this is to provide easy automated control of the system.
A typical APPS UK Ltd Terragator system uses 4 x nozzles manufactured from stainless steel and designed to produce a droplet size of 40 micron or less.
They are air activated in operation so that when air pressure is fed to the nozzle, it moves a differential pressure piston which uncovers the water inlet duct. When the air supply is stopped, the opposite happens and the water flow is positively cut off.
This prevents wastage of water and Airborne10 and also acts as a self-cleaning mechanism due to the positive cut off action; it also means that only one switch control is required for the on/off procedure of the nozzle array.
The air and water/chemical mix are fed to the nozzles by means of high density Polyethylene (HDPE) tubing using push fit connections where tees, elbows and connections to the nozzles are required.
The air pressure propels the liquid out of the nozzle orifice, producing the absorbent mist.
