Norac UC7-BC-RG11 Installation guide

Brand: Norac

Model: UC7-BC-RG11

Type: Installation guide

Norac UC7-BC-RG11 is a first-rate boom height control system for farming and agricultural purposes. It prevents sprayer boom damage, improves sprayer efficiency, and ensures that chemicals are applied in the correct dosage. It is compatible with Rogator sprayers manufactured after 2018, including the 900, 1100, and 1300 models. This system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect the height of the crop and automatically adjusts the boom height to maintain the desired distance. This helps to prevent damage to crops, reduce chemical waste, and improve overall spraying accuracy.
