Short Description:
NEXSTAR Flow Control modules are designed to interface with the
Wingman Guidance System to provide
variable speed directional and bi-directional motor control of pumps, valves, and electrical
actuators.
Where/When to use:
Typical mosquito control uses include aerial applications of ULV liquid or granule products with
independent control of left and right spray booms including pressure and flow sensor monitoring in a closed
loop control system. NEXSTAR modules are designed to work together on a high speed controller area network
(CAN) allowing custom configurations for mosquito, forestry, and agricultural aerial spray systems.
Application Considerations:
- NEXSTAR provides a seamless monitoring interface for Radar Altimeters and rotary atomizers as
well as variable PWM output for Hydraulic variable flow and variable rate systems.
Features/Benefits:
- NEXSTAR Aerial Flow Control modules are designed to interface with the Wingman Guidance System
to provide variable speed, directional and bi-directional motor control of pumps, valves, and
electrical actuators.
- Controlling the speed of electric pumps, during aerial missions, allows for automatic compensation
of air speed based on the associated head wind or tail wind of the flight path. This ensures a constant
rate of application, as mandated by the EPA, and a more effective swath over large treatment areas.
- Typical mosquito control uses include aerial applications of ULV liquids or granular pesticides
with independent control of left and right spray booms including pressure and flow sensor monitoring
in a closed loop control system.
- NEXSTAR provides a seamless monitoring interface for Radar Altimeters and rotary atomizers and
also variable output for Hydraulic variable flow and variable rate systems. Provide enhanced reporting
options by SkyTracker Software and GeoPro Decision Support System.
- NEXSTAR modules are designed to work together on a high speed Controller Area Network (CAN).
CAN Architecture permits a wide configuration range for use in mosquito, forestry, and agricultural
aerial spray systems.
