Slurry Tankers: Do I Need Auto-Fill?
Nevada’s ezi-load auto-filling arm has an 8 inch diameter rather than the standard 6 inch. This enables twice the volume of effluent to be sucked up. Nevada slurry tankers also come with a bigger, more efficient vacuum pump making filling faster again. And for really big slurry tankers we recommend a loading accelerator to make […]
How to Spread More Effectively with your Slurry Tanker
Not when you have a RainWaveTM All Nevada slurry tankers are fitted with RainWaveTM applicators because they provide a superior spread that’s simply not possible with a splash plate, injector unit or trailing shoe. Our RainWaveTM applicators produce larger liquid droplets which allow for a wider, more controlled and even spread. The larger droplets are […]
Do Slurry Tankers Take a Lot of Time?
Slurry tankers can be taken just about anywhere on the farm, and with a RainWaveTM applicator the spread per hour is much faster than the typical travelling irrigator. Not only is it faster, but the spread is more accurate and controlled with less wind drift. This allows spreading into corners, irregular shaped paddocks, and closer […]
Slurry Tankers: Why a Full Chassis is Essential
A full, independent chassis also means the tank can be fully galvanised. The tank and chassis are each made from different types and grades of steel. Where the chassis is deliberately not galvanised to preserve its integral strength, the tank needs to be galvanised to maximise strength and integrity. Galvanised inside and out Galvanising is […]
