The Valve Driver Cartridge VDC05
The WeedSeeker® Valve Driver Cartridge VDC05 is used to drive
an external solenoid valve, supplied by the user, in applications that
exceed the specifications of the Valve Cartridge (VC01). The VDC05 uses
the same cartridge body as the Valve Cartridge, except the internal
circuit board and solenoid valve have been replaced with a valve driver
circuit board with a higher amperage rating.
The VDC05 is inserted in the valve cartridge
slot of a Sensor and secured with two stainless steel captive screws.
When the sensor detects a plant or weed, the VDC05 will output an electronic
signal. This signal is used to open an external valve and activate an
external system, such as a spray nozzle or a bank of spray nozzles. The
red LED will turn on to indicate that the cartridge is energized.
A sensor with a VDC05 has the ability to
activate:
- A high pressure sprayer when a tree
or vine is detected.
- A foliar nutrient or fungicide spray
system when a tree or vine is detected.
- A fertilizer ground application system
when a tree or vine is detected.
- Nozzles capable of spraying wettable
powders.
- An application of beneficial insects
to plant.
