Subject: Planter check valves for electric system


Morris, IL
We have an electric fertilizer system on our planter, agexcell system that came with 4 psi check valves. I'm considering putting some stronger check valves to stop overflow around the ends, wondering what everyone is running? I think they make an 8psi in same version (Hypro i believe), after that is jumps up to 25. I think i will be running in the 15-25 psi range. Seems the 4psi still drains lot of the line up to flow monitors, i have 3' hose after check valve at the row unit but system keeps running 15 seconds after i flip the switch. Any other ideas would be advised?
