| For correction factors for wind speed and insect size
see Taylor (Ann. appl. Biol. Vol. 50, pp 405 - 421). The
catch is segregated at pre-set time intervals
(min.-hours) to show flight periodicity. Construction
and Equipment Details
- Stand:
- Welded tubular steel construction, heavy cadmium
plate finish to prevent corrosion.
- Control Box:
- Steel chassis and case, tastefully finished in
hammer green stove enamel, housing switching
network and timer coupled to the trap through
waterproof rubber power sockets.
- Fan:
- Multi-speed reversible unit of improved design to
give uninterrupted air flow. Available for use on
all voltages and frequencies.
- Disc Dropping Assembly:
- Solenoid actuated release mechanism pulsed from
timer, manufactured from non-corrosive materials
and encased in an acetate cylinder to give
trouble-free operation. Easy removal of
collecting cone and magazine facilitates
maintenance.
Standard equipment includes: 1 set of discs with
