AutoWash
AutoWash is a series of 3 different automated rinsing/flushing programmes managed by the controller.
General Info
AutoWash will optimise the consumption of rinsing water and allow up to 6 cycles to obtain a residual concentration of less
than 2% by running a full MultiRinse.
Each programme will automatically turn the required valves to correct position and in the optimal sequence to ensure
rinsing of all the intended spray lines.
One of three different programs depending on the situation can be selected, BoomFlush, FastFlush and MultiRinse. These
are fast and easy to use for the operator:
• The cleaning process done in the field so the residues do not end up in the farmyard. The operator remains in the cabin
thus avoiding contamination from the equipment and the sprayed crop, to himself and the tractor cabin.
• The operation is simple, as the operator does not need an in-depth understanding of the sprayer. The operator only
needs to select a suitable programme for the wash job.
• It greatly saves time, as e.g. there is no need for wearing protective clothing every time operating the valves.
• When AutoWash operates, it takes control of both suction SmartValve and pressure SmartValve.
The intention of the AutoWash functions are to act as an aid for the user to get a complete cleaning of the sprayer. However,
the intention is not to do the following three things:
Do Not
• Use AutoWash at stand still. Stationary washing can cause spot contamination. This does not apply if a drained
filling/washing location is available at the farm.
• Put cleaning agent in the RinseTank.
• Pause a wash program and add cleaning agent into the MainTank.
Additional Info
The design of the AutoWash programs BoomFlush, FastFlush and MultiRinse are for use in the field, and operates while
driving in order to distribute wash water, which contain spray chemical broadly on the field to avoid spot contamination.
If the farm has a wash area with means to collect and safely dispose wash water (e.g. a manure tank), then AutoWash can
operate when stationary.
Other procedures may be required or cannot complete in the field. For example:
• Soak wash: A label defined wash that requires more than 500 litres of clean water and neutralising agents. Wash of
sprayer between jobs with incompatible chemicals must be according to prescriptions from chemical producer. Use
e.g. AllClearExtra, as this is a commonly used cleaning agent. If your chemical prescribes another cleaning agent and/or
another cleaning procedure, you must follow that.
• TankFlush: After transferring spray-liquid to a storage tank.
• TurboFiller: Always clean immediately after use, preferably whilst using the FastFiller.
• AutoWash • AutoFill
• AutoSelect
• End Nozzles
