The WeedSeeke controller does not interface directly with the sprayers rate controller. The sprayers rate controller is recommended to be set to a constant pressure. The installations shown on the video have the nozzles located separately from the sensors. The web page you referred to is for our standard systems with an integral solenoid valve/nozzle that is located in the sensor itself. We need to update our web site to explain this better. Using the integral solenoid valve, the 10 mph limit is correct ,but with remote mounted solenoid vales, higher ground speeds are obtainable. We have some units in service spraying railroad track bed and the top speed is about 30 mph. In this case, it requires placement of solenoid several a few feet behind the sensors and the use of a special delay control device to change the spray timing based upon various ground speeds.
