FEATURES AND UPGRADES

The BETE FlexFlow™ spray controllers are standalone electrical control panels intended to provide user-friendly control of BETE Electric HydroPulse (EHP/EHPI) series electric-actuated spray nozzles.

A Siemens brand Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and associated hardware operates the nozzles. Spray zones can be triggered manually or they can be triggered automatically using digital inputs from process sensors. User-adjustable signal delays provide the most accurate spray timing functionality.

The spray flow rate can also be electronically
controlled by pulsing the sprays while adjusting the ratio of ON versus OFF dwell time within each cycle. Pulsing at high frequency allows the average flow rate to be adjusted while maintaining constant fluid supply pressure and the appearance of continuous, uniform coverage.
This flow control process is known as Pulse Width
Modulation (PWM).
