Productivity (liquid)
Maximum performance of the sprayer when working with liquid; Please note that in pump (see "Type of pumping") and battery (see "Type") models, the actual performance may decrease as the air supply or battery charge is exhausted.
High performance allows you to quickly process large areas; moreover, it is often combined with a good spraying distance (see below). On the other hand, such models require fairly large tanks — or they often have to be refilled; neither one nor the other contributes to the convenience of work. In addition, over-capacity is even more undesirable than under-capacity: a low-capacity sprayer will just take longer to process, and a too-capacity sprayer can ruin the job by “overdosing” the chemical. Therefore, it makes sense to use high-performance devices only for specific tasks.
Detailed data on optimal performance values for different situations can be found in special sources.
Max. fluid temperature
The maximum fluid temperature that the sprayer can safely handle.
The preparation process of some formulations requires heating; therefore, data on the temperature to which the liquid must cool can be very important for safe operation. However, even in the most heat-resistant sprayers, this figure does not exceed 40 °C; such a liquid feels warm to the touch.
It is worth remembering the temperature limits when the unit is in the sun: if the tank has had time to get very hot in the sun, you should let it cool down before starting work.
Cylinder volume
The volume of one cylinder in an internal combustion engine installed in a sprayer. In fact, we are talking about the working volume of the entire engine, because. in this technique, only single-cylinder internal combustion engines are used.
In general, a large cylinder volume allows you to achieve high power, but power also depends on some engine characteristics (primarily the type of internal combustion engine, see above). And the performance characteristics of the sprayers themselves with the same engine power can also be different. But what directly depends on the volume of the engine is fuel consumption: a larger volume, usually, requires more fuel.
