FMI PDS-100 Programmable Dispenser for agricultural insect control

Wednesday, 07 September, 2016 | Supplied by: STAUFF Corporation Pty Ltd


One alternative to broadcast spraying of insecticides directly onto crops is to lure insects into a trap or onto an insecticide-treated surface. The luring agent is a pheromone which influences the insects’ mating process. Once entering the trap or on the treated surface, the presence of an insecticide will eliminate the pest permanently. In addition to commercial agriculture, pheromone insect traps can be used to eliminate moths, roaches and ants.

The PDS-100 Programmable Dispenser, manufactured by Fluid Metering, Inc (FMI), can be used for precision production dispensing of both pheromones and pesticides. Available in both single- and dual-channel configurations, the product will dispense one or both chemicals simultaneously. Since both channels are independently adjustable, dual-dispensing models will precisely dispense both pheromone and insecticide in infinitely proportional ratios.

The key to the precision of the product lies in its valveless piston principle. The pump utilises only one moving part, a ceramic piston, to accomplish both the pumping and valveless functions within the pump. The unit will dispense pheromones and insecticides for millions of cycles at 0.5% precision without the need for recalibration.
