Radion 8140 Automatic Sprayer Control
CHAPTER 1 – INTRODUCTION
Designed with simplicity in mind, Radion 8140 offers spraying advantages not found in other controllers. Setting the target application
rate and the unique VisiFlo® display on the controller helps select the right TeeJet tip for the application. Once spraying begins, the large
display shows application rate, volume sprayed, system pressure, sprayer speed, and area covered. Radion 8140’s built-in planning tool
automatically displays the available speed range for the target rate and spray tip that have been selected. Radion 8140 may be used as an
individual controller or in combination with CAN bus technology using Matrix® Pro and BoomPilot® to add automated boom section control.
Product Upgrades Available
Matrix Pro Guidance and BoomPilot Automated Boom Section Control.

NOTE: If Fertilizer is selected, a Density Factor option is active.
Density Factor
Density Factor establishes the weight per volume setting based on
the type of fertilizer used. Range is 6.676 to 16.691 lb./gal. / 0.8 to
2.0 kg/l.
The fertilizer’s ability to ow is affected by a number of factors.
These factors may vary with each batch and it may change due to
weather (humidity, etc.). In order to accommodate for this, the job
computer uses a density factor to compensate for the nature of the
applied fertilizer.
The default value of “1.00” corresponds with the specic gravity of
water and is correct for most pesticide applications. Occasionally
some spray solutions, such as fertilizer, have different densities. If
using such a material, a new value should replace the default value.
The chart to the below can help determine the specic gravity of
other solutions.

Parameters screen.
Figure 3-14: Regulation Parameters
If the system is plumbed in a throttling mode, start with
valve setting number 3 and adjust the number according to
application requirements.
Low flow situations require a slower response time. Adjusting
agitation volumes, to accommodate the regulating valve
to work in a more fully open position, allows for a faster
response time with little to no searching.
NOTE: Adjust the setting valve to optimize system performance. If
the valve seems to “search” for the programmed application
rate by continuously cycling pressure up/down, reduce
the number until “searching” is minimized or eliminated.
Conversely, a higher number increases the valve response
time and “speeds up” the rate of adjustment.
Fine Valve Calibration
Fine regulation value calibration allows setting the regulating valve
to accommodate different application needs. Operating conditions
may necessitate a higher or lower response setting for the regulating
valve. Fine valve calibration adjusts the setting for the ne tune
adjustment in relation to a small percentage close to the target
application rate. Range is 0 to 9.
Coarse Valve Calibration
Coarse regulation value calibration allows regulating the setting of
the regulating valve to accommodate different application needs.
Operating conditions may necessitate a higher or lower response
setting for the regulating valve. This value adjusts the setting for
coarse adjustments in relation to a large percentage outside of the
target application rate. Range is 0 to 19.
►If the system is too slow in nding the correct rate, values
should be increased
►If the system is too unstable, values should be decreased
TIPS: If the system is plumbed in a bypass mode, valve setting
number 9 works very well in most applications.
►If the system is too slow in nding the correct rate, increase
values.
►If the system is too unstable, decrease values.
TIPS: If the system is plumbed in a bypass mode, valve setting
number 5 works very well in most applications.
If the system is plumbed in a throttling mode, start with a
valve setting number 3 and adjust the number according to
application requirements.
Low flow situations require a slower response time. Adjusting
agitation volumes to accommodate the regulating valve, to
work in a more fully open position, allows for faster response
time with little to no searching.
NOTE: This setting value can be adjusted to optimize system
performance. If the valve seems to “search” for the
programmed application rate by continuously cycling the
pressure up/down, reduce the number until “searching”
is minimized or eliminated. Conversely, a higher number
increases the valve response time and “speeds up” the rate
of adjustment.
Tip Spacing
Tip Spacing establishes the distance between the tips on the boom.
Range is 4 to 7,874 inches / 10 to 19,999 centimeters.

Display Rate Smoothing
Display Rate Smoothing is a percent value used as a deadband for
displaying the application rate valve on the operation screen. Range
is 0 to 25%.
NOTE: Once actual application rate is within the percent deadband
value of the target rate, target rate will be shown.
Number of Sections
Number of Sections establishes how many sections are on the
implement. Range is 1 to 13, depending on console availability. Nine
(9) switch consoles are capable of supporting up to 13 boom sections.
The boom sections are paired across the nine (9) switches but will
work as individual sections in ASC mode. Contact TeeJet Support for
more information.
NOTE: Although the Number of Sections range is 1 to 13, the max.
number of physical switches are still nine (9). See the "Boom
section & switches" section of this manual for more information.
NOTE: The Target Rate is based upon the active boom width. The
boom width is calculated from referencing the Number of
Sections, the Number of Tips per Section, and the space
between the tips. Console operation is based upon the active
width so the active sections will determine the width the
controller will target.
Circulation
Circulation establishes if ow in the boom is increased to help keep
product suspended in the system. Based on the restrictor plate value,
the circulation ow will be subtracted from the measured ow so that
the console knows exactly what is sprayed or returned to the tank.
Sections on Operation Screen
The number of sections established will be shown on the Operation

Minimum Regulation Pressure
Minimum Regulation Pressure establishes the level that the working
pressure will not drop below, even if a lower pressure is required by
the regulation system (the controller). If the actual pressure on the
sprayer becomes lower than this value, the regulating system will
continue to increase the pressure until the minimum pressure level
has been reached. Range is 0.0 to 29.0 psi / 2.0 bar.
INTRODUCTION
OPERATIONDATA APPENDIX TOOLS CONSOLE
SETTINGS
Maximum Regulation Pressure
Maximum Regulation Pressure establishes the level that the working
pressure will not rise higher than, even if a higher pressure can
be obtained by the regulation system (the controller). If the actual
pressure on the sprayer becomes higher than this value, the regulating
system will continue to decrease the pressure until the maximum
pressure has been reached. Range is 0.0 to 725.2 psi / 50.0 bar.
Regulation Valve Time
Regulation Valve Time is the time in seconds for the regulation
valve to go from fully closed to fully open (or vice versa). Range is
1.0 to 60.0 seconds.
NOTE: The time is determined by the type of regulation valve used
and should be set to the recommendations included with the
regulation valve.
Minimum Regulation Voltage
Minimum Regulation Voltage is the lowest voltage at which the
regulation valve will start to move. The controller uses variable voltage
to control the valve; the closer the actual rate is to the target rate, the
lower the voltage sent to the valve will be. The minimum voltage must
be found when the valve is under pressure, as this affects the force
required to move the valve. Range is 0.0 to 12.0 volts.
