Which type of application is best served with a turbulence chamber flood nozzle?

The turbulence chamber flood nozzle is specifically designed to minimize off-target drift while delivering a large volume of liquid at relatively low pressures. This characteristic makes it particularly suitable for applications to drift-sensitive areas, where controlling the dispersion of the pesticide is crucial to prevent unintended harm to surrounding plants or the environment.

In contrast to the options mentioned, high-pressure foliar applications generally require nozzles that produce finer droplets for better canopy penetration and coverage, which could increase drift potential. Granular pesticide applications often utilize different types of application equipment altogether, focusing on spreading solids rather than liquid suspension, while insecticide fogging typically relies on specialized fogging nozzles that create very fine aerosols to maximize coverage and penetration into areas where insects may reside. The turbulence chamber flood nozzle’s ability to maintain a controlled application pattern while reducing drift makes it the most appropriate choice for sensitive soil applications.
