[NEWLY ADDED] In FERTILIZER WIZARD, added a subsection for the new 3-hole fertilizer Streamer caps (FS3). These are an integrated cap in 1 part number to make it easier to order liquid fertilizer top dressing nozzles.
[UPDATED] We added a handful of new PWM spray system manufacturers within the PWM spray tip searches, namely Agrifac’s StrictSprayPlus, AgLeader RightSpot, Aim Command Flex II, Capstan PinPoint III, Raven Hawkeye II, and consolidated some of the existing PWM systems to declutter.
THIS UPDATE IS ON TIP WIZARD online ONLY, with the IOS and Android store apps to be updated shortly.
Stay tuned for even larger TIP WIZARD updates in the coming year.
[NEWLY ADDED] ‘Flow Indicator’ Wizard:
Uses for Flow View visual ball flow indicator users:
This calculator/selector tool is suitable for applicators looking to set up a new ball flow indicator system, or verify which balls to use in an existing flow indicator assembly.
Uses for Wilger’s Electronic Flow Monitoring System users:
It also allows a user of the new Electronic Flow Monitoring System to select which stabilizing jet to use for an application, to guarantee the highest level of accuracy for an intended application. It can also be used to ensure the flow monitoring system will accurately handle a specific flow rate or application.
- Start with inputting application rate (with option for alternate rate), speed, outlet spacing, liquid weight (in LBs/US Gal), and # of outlets fed per flow column (typically 1).
- With this information, the app generates which flow column sizes can be used for that flow rate.
- When a column’s result tab is opened, it shows what flow rate is required, along with which balls can be used to visually indicate flow.
- Ideally pick the ball that has the green line closest to its’ center.
- For Electronic Flow Monitoring System users:
- Simply open the Electronic Flowmeter tab, and select which jet color would best suit your flow rate.
- If an alternate rate is entered, it will show up in the chart as a yellow line, which allows you to verify if the same ball can cover both application rates.
- If a single ball cannot cover the entire range of application rates, you can add a second ball to the column to help indicate variation in flow for the secondary application. (Heavier ball on the bottom of the column).

- If using visual flow indicators or ORS manifolds with ORS outlets, use an O-ring Seal metering orifice.
- Within the results of ORS Metering Orifice searches, both molded and drilled orifices are found.
- Added Litres/Acre Application unit, by request.
- Added [OPTIONAL] Preferred Pressure option.
- For ORS orifices, there are a great number of them, so this ideal pressure input helps filter your options to a cleaner selection.

Changes to ‘Spray Tip’ Wizard:
- Added ‘Droplet Size Classification’ column from spray tip charts.
- Added ability to select Droplet Category (e.g. ASABE COARSE) in ‘Target Droplet Size’
- NOTE: It is still very much recommended to use a specific VMD/droplet size in µ to get the best results out of tip wizard.
- Expanded Tip result charts to 90PSI.
- Ensure you follow max pressure recommendations for PWM systems (typically 60PSI). Consult your sprayer system manufacturer.
- Added ‘Combo-Jet UR series’ in Tip Wizard results.
- As they are designed for specialty restricted use chemicals, they are not to be compared to other Combo-Jet spray tips, so some info is limited. Always follow restricted use chemical herbicide labels when selecting spray tips, with special attention to chemical labels with only specific tips approved for use.
- Removed ‘%<200µ’ column from spray tip charts.
- Replaced by %<141µ as a standard for driftable fines in ideal conditions.
- Highlighted green line across tip charts now only shows on the closest VMD to targeted droplet size.
