The NSTS test covers all types of liquid and granular application machinery and satisfies the requirements of crop assurance schemes and grower protocols.
Having your sprayer tested ensures maximum efficiency of your sprayer and reduces costly downtime. A certificate is issued which provides evidence to your clients, crop assurance organisations and the general public of your commitment to keep your machines in sound, well-serviced condition.
The test covers the delivery system - tanks and lids, pump, spray controls, pipework and hoses. It covers the application system - pressure gauges, spray lines, nozzle bodies, check valves, spray caps and tips, boom and suspension. It also covers rinsing and tank wash systems, recirculation systems and chemical induction systems.
