Pesticide sprayer.
Here is a photo of my new pesticide sprayer apparatus.
The black cylinder is an Aquatech 8852 booster pump, it runs on 24VAC, intake (suction) is on the right, discharge is on the left. Pesticide mix goes into the white 2.5 gallon jug, one hose extends from the bottom of the jug to the intake of the pump. From the discharge of the pump there is a metering valve that is adjusted to allow some of the discharge to return to the jug. The valve is adjusted so that there is still sufficient pressure behind it for the spray wand/head. The braided line from the tee behind the valve goes to the spray wand.
Behind this rig you will see a Dosmatic Microdos chemical injector. I have a Dosmatic Minidos and have been happy with it but I am very dissapointed with the Microdos.
