Light helps twilight spraying

BlueBeam sheds light during spraying. BlueBeam sheds light during spraying.

A clever light from Tyri will suit spray rig operators.

The BlueBeam 1010 LED light throws a long-distance beam over a concentrated area so is ideal for boom mounting; it will cover an area up to 20m. 

It ensures operators can see if the spray pattern is uniform, and allows spraying to go on late in the day as light fades.

With a IP68K rating ensuring that electrics are protected from moisture generated by the spray nozzles, the bright blue light is said to be more effective than white LED’s or halogen lights as it gives a clearer view of each nozzle and helps the operator identify blocked or badly performing areas
