To produce more consistency in dry work, it is recommended that door straightening vanes be added to the gate box door and the fairing in front of the gate. Door straightening vanes come in five-piece kits made specifically for gate box door size.

Gate Box Spacers are components that maintain a consistent distance between the gate box and the spray valve, allowing a smooth, regulated flow. All valve-to-gate box spacers are 4″ wide and available in various hole pattern attachments to meet the different gate box configurations.

Seeder Plates bolt onto the inside of the gate box door. They work in tandem with the box’s opening size to control the flow rate of material, such as seeds or granulated fertilizers. Seeder Plates give the pilot control over the desired amount of material distributed efficiently during the application process.

One of the key features of the seeder plates is their versatility and convenience. They are designed to remain attached to the door even when switching to liquid applications. This means operators don’t need to remove the plates when transitioning between different types of materials, saving time and effort during the process.

Demand Vents help equalize pressure within the hopper as materials are dispensed during flight. When material is released, the internal pressure inside the hopper can decrease, potentially creating a vacuum effect that disrupts the smooth flow of materials.

By allowing air to enter the hopper, Demand Vents maintain consistent internal pressure, preventing the formation of a vacuum and allowing materials to flow smoothly and evenly.

Regular maintenance and inspection of Demand Vents are essential to ensure optimal performance. Blockages, wear and tear, or damage to the vents can lead to operational disruptions and safety risks.

Transland Demand vents are available in Aluminum, Delrin, and Stainless Steel.
