Spray Fill Xpress Speeds Up Fill Times
The Spray Fill Xpress can increase spraying productivity by as much as 82 percent. That can knock a 30-min. filling time down to less than 7 min.
“This is a quality system manufactured by a North Dakota company with over 55 years experience,” says Ben Idland, of Summers Manufacturing. “The Spray Fill Xpress was farmer-inspired with intentions of drastically cutting your filling time down during spraying season or any time you are running multiple loads and want to be more efficient.”
The system features a unique chemical batching process, including 3-in. dia. plumbing to decrease filling time.
Setup is simple, as the deep stainless steel tanks make it possible to pour in chemicals quickly with minimal splashing and allow for complete drainage when done.
Each of the Xpress’s tanks can hold different chemicals, which helps avoid premixing. The tank comes equipped with a jug rinse system for streamlined cleanout.
You can add optional scales to the Spray Fill Xpress to weigh chemicals accurately, ensuring the correct ratios. Just weigh the chemicals as they enter the containment area and reset the scale between varieties.
Use the included rinse wand to clean out the tanks or make a slurry during dry chemical induction. The full rinse system makes it possible to flush the remaining chemicals to the sprayer while prepping the tank for the following chemical batching process. This ensures the entire system is fully flushable to eliminate contamination from one batch to another.
They offer the original SFX2430 or the smaller SX1630. The high-capacity original model measures 102-in. long and can be fitted with three to six tanks for a total capacity of 240 gal. At 78 in., the smaller model can fit crossways on a trailer. It holds two to four tanks for a 160-gal. capacity. Says Idland, “Our different sizes and options leave a wide window  of opportunity to many different operations.”
Summers Manufacturing has two locations, Devils Lake, N. Dak. and Aberdeen, S. Dak. Contact the company directly for a price estimate and analysis of which system will best fit your situation.
