Testing Liquid Ice Melt Sprayer Application for Commercial Snow Removal

Описание: Today we’re testing a new spray technology from Frost Inc. in St. Croix Falls. This morning we’re hooking the system up to our CAT 908 Compact Wheel Loader. The sprayer itself has a standard skid steer attachment which hooks right up to our machine.

The sprayer itself has adjustable jets that you can rotate and control the spray stream with. We’re filling it with a liquid pre-treat mixture called Heat Wave which is a calcium chloride blend rather than a sodium chloride blend. It’s safer for the environment.

The sprayer is powered by hydraulics that connect directly to our machine connectors. Right off the bat we customized the sprayer by adding extra sprayer nozzles that broadcast the liquid more off to the side.

We’re going to use two different techniques – shoot directly down through a 1-inch snow cover and then we’re going to do a softer spray technique that broadcasts the material out over a width of about 35 feet. Let’s see which method works better.

We set out sprayer about 18 inches above the spray surface and then adjusted our spray pressure which is adjusted by an air regulator located on the sprayer itself.
