Overview & Applications
The Ocmis Irrigazione 13m Spray Boom delivers gentle, low-pressure nebulized irrigation specifically engineered for delicate crops requiring careful water application. With a 13m (43ft) boom span, this mounted system provides uniform coverage ideal for market gardens, nurseries, and vegetable production where seedlings, transplants, and tender leafy crops demand superfine spray patterns that avoid foliage damage. The nebulized jet technology creates a soft, mist-like water distribution that protects fragile plant tissues while ensuring thorough moisture penetration across the irrigated strip.
Galvanized Steel Construction
Constructed from robust galvanized steel framework, the 13m boom features a pipe and cable support structure that balances strength with operational flexibility. The galvanized finish provides long-term corrosion resistance essential for continuous exposure to water and field conditions, extending service life across multiple growing seasons. This durable construction maintains boom stability during operation whilst remaining lightweight enough for efficient maneuverability when mounted on hose reel irrigators or traveling systems. The structural design ensures the boom maintains consistent spray height and nozzle positioning throughout irrigation cycles, critical for achieving uniform water distribution patterns.
Low-Pressure Nebulized Performance
Operating at reduced pressure levels, the Ocmis nebulizer nozzle configuration delivers exceptional water atomization that creates a fine mist rather than heavy droplets. This low-pressure approach minimizes soil surface disruption and eliminates the risk of physically damaging delicate foliage, blossoms, or developing fruit. The nebulized spray pattern demonstrates superior wind resistance compared to conventional irrigation methods, maintaining coverage uniformity even in moderate breeze conditions that would typically compromise standard spray systems. The gentle water application prevents soil compaction and crusting, promoting better infiltration and root zone moisture retention whilst reducing runoff on sloped terrain.
System Compatibility & Operational Benefits
Designed for seamless integration with hose reel traveling irrigators, the 13m spray boom enables efficient coverage of rectangular field layouts and row crop configurations. The low-pressure operation significantly reduces energy consumption and pumping costs compared to high-pressure irrigation alternatives, delivering operational savings across the growing season. With multiple configuration options available across the Ocmis mounted boom range, operators can select trolley variations, height adjustments, and specialized nozzle arrangements tailored to specific crop requirements and field conditions. The compact 13m length proves particularly effective for smaller paddocks, greenhouse approaches, and intensive production areas where maneuverability and precise coverage control remain paramount.
