Drop Size Study

Drop Size Study (Conducted by A. Womac)
"The TurboDrop® stood out in terms of producing large droplets," Womac says. "They produced big drops with operating pressures from 40 to 100psi."

*Note that a smaller TurboDrop® Nozzle at twice the pressure produces much larger droplets and much fewer small (driftable) droplets.
