Gaseous - NH3 application

FEATURES OF THE VCOM AS A GASEOUS FERTILIZATION CONTROLLER  

The importance of applying NH3 as fertilizer lies in the efficiency of nitrogen as a nutrient, an important element for growth, formation of chlorophyll, and crop yield.

In conventional gaseous application systems, the application dose is controlled manually by the operator, hence it is not possible to know the final applied dose. Vcom solves all of these problems by providing effective gas regulation, measurement and record of the applied dose. 

SYSTEM COMPONENTS

• Guiding computer for dosage control and monitoring as well as yield mapping. 
• A proportional valve meters doses the gas flow according to speed and dose to be applied.   
• Shut-off valve allows for automatic gas cut-off  in headers. 
• Flowmeter measures instant flow rate and sends that information to the computer for system feed-back and adjustment according to the pre-set dose,speed, position, etc. 
• Valves controller electrically operates regulating and shut-off valves. 
• Inclinometers allow for application depth measuring and generate record map.

WORK LOG AND APPLICATION MAPS

The  system generates georeferenced maps that allow you to have a detailed record of the operator’s work. WhiIe operating, it stores such data as date, starting and finishing working times, applied  dose, speed, hectares, terrain elevation, applied and no-spray area. Our Agromaps Software generates reports and post-application maps of all registered variables, which enables you to visualize and analyze all these data, hence allowing for better decision-making.
