A sprayer tank is designed for storing and using various pesticides, fertilizers, and chemical compounds in agriculture. These tanks must be resistant to UV radiation, impact, pressure, and acidic and chemical substances used in spraying. Since the early 1990s, various sprayer tanks have been produced in Australia and made available to farmers, driven by human innovation and the production of modern and convenient equipment for better living.
Features of Sprayer Tanks
- Resistant to heat and cold
- Resistant to impact and pressure
- UV resistant
- Resistant to chemicals and acids
- Easy to transport
Types of Sprayer Tanks
Sprayer tanks come in various types, including:
- Handheld sprayers
- UTV backpacks
- Large sprayer tanks mounted on tractors and specialized vehicles
Tractor-Mounted Sprayer Tank
Tractor-mounted sprayer tanks are usually made of polyethylene tank or galvanized tank and are resistant to burning. These tanks are typically used for large orchards and extensive fields. They have two wheels and are connected to the tractor shaft at a single point, providing the necessary power for movement and load carrying.
The advantages of tractor-mounted sprayers include uniform spraying of pesticides and fertilizers over the entire surface of crops and orchards, significantly reducing spraying time. These sprayers typically come in 200, 400, 600, 800, and 1000-liter capacities.
Handheld Sprayer Tank
Handheld sprayer tanks are among the oldest types of sprayers, holding about 16 to 20 liters of liquid. They feature a pump that transfers air into the device, mixing it with the pesticide and allowing it to be sprayed through the outlet valve.
Handheld Sprayer Tank
Due to their lightweight and portability, handheld sprayer tanks are commonly used for greenhouses and small gardens. They are also used for spraying various insects like fleas and bedbugs in homes.
Plastic Sprayer Tank
In the past, sprayer tanks were typically made of metal, which, despite their high cost, had limited durability. Today, domestic production has shifted to plastic sprayer tanks, which are lighter and easier to transport. These tanks are popular due to their suitability for various vehicles. Plastic or polyethylene sprayer tanks come in various types, including dump sprayers, tractor-mounted sprayers, motorized sprayers, and more, available in different volumes.
Polyethylene Sprayer Tank
The polyethylene industry is rapidly growing and impacting various fields, including agriculture. Some polyethylene products used in agriculture include:
-
- Various tanks for orchards
- Polyethylene sprayer tanks
- Polyethylene plating vats
- And more
The application of polyethylene sprayer tanks is extensive. The polyethylene sprayer tanks produced by ABtank are made from high-quality raw materials, enhancing their longevity. The lightweight nature of polyethylene is crucial in agriculture.
