Pulse width modulated technology in agricultural sprayers provides a more consistent spray pressure over a wide range of operating speeds. It is important, however, for operators to follow the recommendations of the pesticide companies in terms of nozzle size, droplet spectra, and travel speed, and spray nozzle manufacturer when using a PWM system. This fact sheet includes recommendations and considerations when using the technology in the field. 4 pages, color.
