Fan and Cannon
AssemblyA double-intake centrifugal fan blows a jet of air through a cannon tube and head at 60 to 80 m/s. Liquid from the nozzle ring at the head is carried up to about 30 m into tall trees, or about 40 to 60 m sideways along a tree line. A full specification article for this item is being written.
