What should happen to the strainer mesh size as liquid moves from the spray tank to the nozzle?

As liquid moves from the spray tank to the nozzle, the strainer mesh size should become smaller. This process serves to ensure that any potential contaminants or larger particles that could clog the nozzle are trapped earlier in the system. By having a finer mesh at the nozzle, it helps to maintain the uniformity of droplets being sprayed, which is crucial for effective pest management.

Larger particles can lead to uneven spray patterns or nozzle clogging, which can decrease the efficacy of the pesticide application. Therefore, a smaller mesh at the nozzle is essential for optimal sprayer performance, ensuring that the spray is fine enough to adequately cover the target area while avoiding clogs. Keeping the right balance between the sizes of the strainers throughout the system can improve both efficiency and effectiveness in pest management practices.
