![](files/Altek_2018/Inhalte/Messen/Agritechnica%202019/altek_30_08_2017_Sonderartikel_80_5763.jpg)
Designed for use with multiple-row planting machines equipped with applicators applying liquid fertiliser directly during planting operation. The Vari-Feed motorised valve can be controlled to supply variable volume rates at each outlet.
The valve can be used in conjunction with variable rate software / application prescription maps where different volumes are required within a row or in a lateral distribution.
Low power requirement!
