Dramm - FertiCart Portable Injector Cart

Brand: Dramm

FertiCart Portable Injector Cart

The FertiCart is Dramm's portable fertilizer injection cart: a vinyl dipped steel frame, a stock solution tank and a complete pre-plumbed injector station built around a 200 mesh inlet filter, a backflow check valve and unions above and below the injector position. The Dosatron injector is not included on any build - what ships is the cart, the tank and all of the plumbing, and the injector is bought separately and fitted before first use. Every build resists greenhouse fertilizers, disinfectants and acids, rolls on solid rubber wheels with locking rubberized casters, and empties through a drain valve in the sump. Two decisions define the cart you get: how the stock solution is held, and which Dosatron the plumbing is sized for.

Take the tank first. The 20 gallon build is the compact single tank cart, narrow enough for most greenhouse aisles, with the plumbing mounted on a PVC board and nothing else - no agitation and no aeration. Three 7 gallon tanks puts three independent tanks on the same frame, each with its own isolation valve, so one injector can draw from three different stock solutions by turning a ball valve instead of dumping and rinsing. The 50 gallon with agitation and aeration build adds the large tank plus an AC powered recirculation pump feeding Dramm's agitation bar, and an air injection switch that lifts dissolved oxygen to saturation so beneficial nematodes and other aerobic biologicals stay viable while you apply them. The injector line is a plumbing choice, not an injector purchase: D14 is sized for the smaller Dosatron D14, D45 (20 GPM) is sized for the Dosatron D45 at flows up to 20 gpm, and D40 (40 GPM) carries the larger plumbing for the Dosatron D8 range at flows up to 40 gpm. The 20 gallon and three tank builds are made for the D14 only, while the 50 gallon build is made for all three, so pick the tank you need first and then match the injector you already run or intend to buy.

Key Features

• Arrives pre-plumbed - the 200 mesh filter, check valve and unions are already fitted around the injector position
• Unions above and below the injector let you pull it for service without cutting into the plumbing
• Three separate 7 gallon tanks with isolation valves let one injector run three recipes off one cart
• The 50 gallon build recirculates through Dramm's agitation bar to hold water soluble fertilizer and stubborn powders in suspension
• Air injection on the 50 gallon build holds dissolved oxygen at saturation, which is what keeps beneficial nematodes alive in the tank
• Vinyl dipped steel frame and plastic mounting plate resist fertilizer salts, disinfectants and acids
• Solid rubber wheels and locking rubberized casters will not go flat and will not slide on a wet floor
• Drain valve in the sump empties the tank for a clean changeover between chemistries

Ideal Applications

• Fertigating houses and zones that have no permanent injection point
• Running three stock recipes off one injector without dumping and rinsing between them
• Applying beneficial nematodes and other aerobic biologicals that need oxygenated stock
• Hand watering with fertilizer taken straight off the injector outlet
• Acid or disinfectant injection into an irrigation line
• Moving one injector between houses instead of plumbing several fixed stations

The FertiCart SprayTrax 50 Gallon and FertiCart SprayTrax 100 Gallon put the same injector station on Dramm's four wheel self tracking outdoor chassis, and the Aeration/Agitation Bucket (AAB120V) does the same job at 5 gallons.
