Commerical/Heavy Duty Seed Treatment Pumping & Delivery Systems

15 and 70 gallon single and twin Handler Seed Treaters

The Handler HD Treater is a pumping system that, when used in conjunction with the Handler Total Coat applicator, makes up an on-the-go seed treating system.  Using a powerful Baldor 1 HP 115/230 VAC motor or an efficient and easy-starting 5.5 HP Honda GX engine, the Handler HD Treater can be used in any remote location or near available electric power.

The Handler HD Treater is designed to do three main things:

1. Thoroughly mix and put into suspension more seed treatments, including extremely high viscosity slurries like polymers and peat-based slurries, than comparable delivery systems in the market
2. Eliminate contact between the user and the product
3. Deliver mixed product at a controlled rate to the Total Coat applicator or commercial treatment application system

Among some of the additional features of the system:

• Polypropylene fittings and controls will not corrode when they come in contact with any of today’s seed treatments.
• Our accurately calibrated 15 US gallon or 70 gallon cone-bottom tanks work on any terrain and are large enough for many on-the-go situations.
• The large polypropylene strainer on the machine filters out any foreign particles that could plug your applicator, with the large screen size causing minimal flow and pressure restriction.
• With both bypass agitation and jet agitation the user can control the mixing and agitation, with minimal foaming.

At the heart of The Handler HD Treater seed treatment pumping system is the powerful 3/4 in inlet X 3/8 in outlet double-diaphragm medium pressure diaphragm pump.  Among the features of the pump:

• Low-cost maintenance and almost wear-free operation
• Continuous duty rating
• Designed to handle the harshest and most viscous farm products on the market today, including polymers and peat-based slurries
• Maximum flow of 6.0 gpm at 50 psi, and pressures to 275 psi
• Built-in manual pump bypass and pump dampening system
• Electric specifications - 11.8 full load Amps at 115 volts and 5.9 full load Amps at 230 volts.

On-Farm Seed Treatment Pumping & Delivery Systems

The Handler VL Seed Treater

The Handler VL is a mixing and delivery system that, when used in conjunction with the Handler Total Coat applicator, makes up an on-the-go seed treating system.  Using a high volume 115 VAC or 12 VDC pump, the VL can be used in the field or at home base regardless of available power type.

The VL is designed to do three main things:

1. Thoroughly mix and put into suspension your seed treatment
2. Eliminate contact between the user and the product
3. Deliver mixed product at a controlled rate to the Total Coat applicator

 Among some of the additional Features

• Polypropylene fittings and controls will not corrode when they come in contact with any of today’s water-based seed treatments.
• Our accurately calibrated 15 gallon cone-bottom tank works on any terrain and is large enough for many on-the-go situations.
• The polypropylene strainer on the machine filters out any foreign particles that could plug your applicator.
• With both bypass agitation and jet agitation the user can control the mixing and agitation, with minimal foaming.

At the heart of the VL system are the efficient 115 VAC and 12 VDC pumps.  These 1/2 in inlet/ 1/2 in outlet pumps have viton valves and a santophene diaphragm to stand up to harsh water-based seed treatments, and because they are diaphragm pumps, they can be run dry.

Why purchase a Handler Seed Treater?

Simply put, the Handler Seed Treaters make premixing, mixing and pumping of seed treatments easier, faster and safer.  The Handler Seed Treaters are designed to agitate products and keep solids suspended, while at the same time, reduce the amount of foam and contamination that can happen during the mixing process.  The Handler Twin Seed Treaters further benefit the user by allowing for the mixing of more than one product, or can alternately be set up as a reliable source of fresh water.

Where we are extremely proud of the Handler Seed Treater is in its versatility.  There are very few limitations to products that can be premixed, mixed or pumped from our units.  The commercial Handler Seed Treaters can pump water soluble seed treatments and liquid or peat based inoculants.

In addition, the cone bottomed, calibrated Handler tank has no corners!  We realize that seed treatments and inoculants are expensive, and with the Handler no product is left in the tank and rinse water can be quickly and easily pumped out for proper storage and reuse.

Your Handler Seed Treater is available without a pump, and is plumbed to fit with an existing commercial delivery system.  These cone-bottomed units are designed to work with popular products like Gaucho® and Raxil® from Gustafson and Dividend® from Syngenta where large volumes of seed treatment need to be mixed or stored.
