Norac boom height sensors gone faulty

[Jack Russell]

We have a Bateman with 3 Norac sensors on. We have two that have gone faulty. I think because we use liquid fert and wash off with a high volume washer we seem to get more faults than we would otherwise. I can’t remember who fix’s these now? Does anyone know?

Cheers

Might not be of any use, but try washing the sponges on the ends of the sensors, they get crud in and make sensors do silly things

Send them to Bateman as they will change the circuit board thing for around £170 where as most others just bin the lot and your talking £600 plus.

Do you find the norac system good otherwise?

Yes, Norac is good on a VG Bateman boom but you do need all the updates. I m in West Somerset and spray some steep and rolling ground at 32m and 36m and each update has improved performance .Once you ve had it you would not want to be without it. Probably not worth it on 24m unless you're flush. No experience of it on a contour boom.

The latest Norac which Bateman fit with their own modification is even better but I think can only be fitted to the latest machines. Norac have brought out UC7 but Bateman think UC5 plus their own mod is equal or better than UC7.
