Process for mixing, diluting and dispensing water dilutable formulations of insecticides utilizing an injector system

An injector system for preparing a water dilutable insecticidal formulation which comprises:

• a container having an inlet and an outlet for holding the water dilutable insecticidal formulation prior to dilution with water;
• a rotary mixer for mixing the water dilutable insecticidal formulation prior to dilution connected to the container comprising
• a mixing head,
• a motor for rotating a shaft, and
• the shaft connected to the mixing head and a coupling for connecting the shaft to the motor,
• whereby the mixing head is inside the container, the shaft passes through the container, and the coupling for connecting the shaft to the motor is outside the container;
• a water source;
• the water injection pump comprising
• a water inlet port,
• a water outlet port,
• a water dilutable insecticidal formulation inlet port, and
• a water dilutable insecticidal formulation outlet port,
• wherein the water inlet port is connected to the water source providing a water stream passing through the outlet of the water injection pump,
• wherein the water dilutable insecticidal formulation inlet port is connected to the outlet of the container and provides a fluid stream of the water dilutable insecticidal formulation passing through the water dilutable insecticidal formulation outlet of the water injection pump;
• a water line connecting the water outlet port of the water injector pump to a dispensing system;
• a fluid line connecting the water dilutable insecticidal formulation outlet port of the water injector pump and the water line, whereby the water injector pump injects a predetermined amount of the water dilutable insecticidal formulation into the water stream and forms a final water diluted insecticidal formulation;
• and
• the dispensing system connected to the water line for dispensing the water diluted insecticidal formulation into application equipment comprising
• a dispensing nozzle, and
• a hose connecting the water line to the dispensing nozzle.

A process for preparing a water dilutable insecticidal formulation which comprises:

• mixing the water dilutable insecticidal formulation in a container prior to passing the water dilutable insecticidal formulation through an injector system for dilution with water;
• passing the mixed water dilutable insecticidal formulation from the container to a water injection pump;
• providing water to the water injection pump and forming a water stream through the water injection pump;
• passing the water stream through the water injection pump into a dispensing system;
• diluting the water dilutable insecticidal formulation by adding a predetermined amount of the water dilutable insecticidal formulation from the water injection pump to the water stream and forming a water diluted insecticidal formulation;
• and
• dispensing the water diluted insecticide with the dispensing system into a target tank.
