BOOM GUIDE

Boom Guide ProActive (5/3 sensors) Boom Guide ProActive can be equipped with 5 ultrasonic sensors for the full spray boom width and only be using 3 sensors when the boom is symmetrically reduced for a smaller working width.

Sensor Modes The Boom Guide system can be adapted to any field conditions, because three different sensor modes can be used: • Soil mode: the sensors only see the bottom of the field. For example, a large weed has not any influence on the boom height. The soil remains representative. • Crop mode: the sensors only see the crop. The crop height is measured by the height of the spray boom. In a closed crop the sensors continue to automatically follow the crop. • Hybrid mode: the sensors see the crop and the soil. The sensors follow the soil surface and the crop. When the crop is uneven, a uniform crop is virtually determined. This mode can especially be used in unclosed or uneven crops.
