IntelliFlow 3 Liquid Installation Guide 2875-3000-100 Rev A1
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND DETAILS
With the IntelliFlow 3™ (IF3) control system on board, the installed GPS, working with IF3, automatically controls
aerial spray rates. is produces an accurate constant ow rate or a variable rate based on prescription maps
(PMAPs) and/or 3rd party soware. e required ow rates can be pilot selected, or PMAPs can be created using
Satloc MapStar® desktop soware.
Enter desired rates through the GPS interface, and the IF3 system will regulate and maintain selected rates. Once
installed, the G4 or Bantam GPS controls the IntelliFlow 3™ system settings. Spray rates are automatically controlled
with an accurate constant ow rate or a variable rate based on application selections or prescription maps (PMAPs)
in the GPS system. Fine-tune applications through the rate bump feature for more precise applications.
e Satloc G4™ will switch between liquid and dry settings with ease. Control your Transland Hydraulic 5”, 7.5”, or
10” gate system inside the Satloc G4™ and IntelliFlow 3™ connections. e IntelliFlow 2™ control system comes with
a controller, associated cabling, and required unlocks. Liquid kits include a valve with a motor and a meter with a
magnetic sensor.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Read and Follow Safety Messages
• In these instructions, you may see the heading and/or the safety alert symbol . ey indicate
a hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. e safety messages provide
information to identify a hazard associated with potential injury.
• Read and understand this manual and all the warnings below before installing, operating, or performing maintenance
or service. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE TO YOUR SYSTEM.
• Keep this manual and all related safety information with the manuals for your aircra.
Plan your installation by considering the following:
• Cable lengths
• Clearance space
• Power source
• Aircra structure
• Visibility
Consider using existing hardware and hardware locations. Avoid drilling holes that may damage other
equipment (such as structural frame members, electrical cables, or uid lines).
Do not obstruct the view of, or access to, other instruments or the ying visibility of the operator.
Do not allow anyone to operate without instruction.
For trouble-free operation and maintenance of your IF3 system, adhere to the following
recommendations.
• Avoid using IF3 in extreme environmental conditions (40-140°F is recommended operating
temperature range).
• Wash the hopper/boom system thoroughly and methodically aer spray sessions to avoid
gumming up the ow meter unit.

INSTALLING INTELLIFLOW 3
Controller Installation
Mount the controller in an available space on the aircra, for example, in or around the baggage compartment. Ensure
there is enough space for making connections and cable bend radius. Access is needed behind the mounting surface to
attach the nuts to the bolts (part P). When you have selected the mounting location, use one of the plate stencils (part S or
part T) as a template to mark fastener positions. Use drill bit sizes 16 or 28 to drill holes for the fasteners and secure the IF3
Controller (part I) to the aircra using hardware (part P).
Rack Mounting: It is recommended to use the
Mounting Layout Template (PN 601-1313-000) to
assure accuracy for locating the correct position of
the vibration isolators. Thistemplateisavailablefor
purchase.
Horizontal Mounting: It is recommended to use the Mounting
Layout Template (PN 601-1317-000, Part T) to assure accuracy
for locating the correct position of the vibration isolators. This
templateisavailableforpurchase.

• Store excess cable lengths with a minimum six-inch bend radius.
• Do not coil cables (introduces noise).
• Avoid high-temperature exposure (for example - the exhaust, exhaust manifold) when routing.
• Hand tighten connections only; do not use tools (overtighten).

IntelliFlow 3 Liquid Installation Guide 8875-3000-100 Rev A1
FLOW METER AND VALVE INSTALLATION
Install the ow meter and valve/motor assembly in the aircra’s existing boom supply tube. Figure 2 shows the
recommended conguration of IntelliFlow 3’s ow meter and valve/motor assembly. If you cannot install the ow meter
and valve/motor vertically (as shown) because of the physical limitations of the aircra, you may vary the rotational
position of either as required.
Figure 2: Recommended Conguration of Flow Meter and Valve/Motor Assembly
e ow meter must be installed before the valve/motor assembly to avoid excessive turbulence. To minimize the
turbulence around the ow meter, cut the hoses (at step 1 below) to maintain the following minimum hose-length to
diameter ratios (i.e., 10:1 or 6:1).
The length between the bypass valve and the owmeter is the most critical; this section should be as long and straight as
possible, exceeding the minimums below when possible. However, it is acknowledged that the recommended minimum
distances are very oen not possible. In such cases, install the meter and valve as far apart as possible.

IntelliFlow 3 Liquid Installation Guide 9875-3000-100 Rev A1
To install the ow meter and valve/motor:
1. Measure and cut hoses to connect (see warning above):
• Spray valve to the ow meter
• Flow meter to the valve/motor assembly
• Valve/motor assembly to the boom
2. Secure the hoses using two clamps at each connection. is now constitutes the ‘IntelliFlow 3 assembly’.
3. Attach the IntelliFlow 3 assembly to the boom supply plumbing.
4. Install one or two support ttings from supporting structures of the belly skin of the aircra close to the valve and ow
meter.
Do not connect support ttings directly to the owmeter or valve/motor. Use stainless wrap-around straps and supports.
