Smart Irrigation

The drive for efficiency, accuracy and best use of water has resulted in a range of ‘smart irrigation’ solutions, placing greater control in the farm office or on the operator’s mobile phone. We can help evaluate the options and supply the best systems, tailored to individual operations.

Raindancer

The Raindancer solar powered GPS system can be used to monitor, control and provide reports on all parts of the irrigation network. The module and associated apps can show the water used by pumps, hopsereels, fields and crops.

idroMOP

The idroMOP pump controller provides app-based control of pressure and run time for the Briggs range of diesel-engined pumps, allowing complete and accurate control from any location.

7Sense

The 7Sense unit is easy to attach to existing equipment and monitors water pressure, GPS-location, speed and estimated run time, alerting the operator if pressure drops or the run ends. It has a built-in SIM card and there is a mobile app which can also handle data from a range of other sensing equipment.

IRIS data logger

We supply and fit the compact and reliable IRIS data logger which transmits the data from your meter wirelessly to an app or web portal. It can be supplied ready fitted to new meters or retrofitted to most irrigation meters supplied since 2010.

It fulfils Environment Agency daily meter reading requirements and alarms can be set up for low or high water flow, providing an instant check on the network to help prevent waste. Readings can be exported to excel so you can see long term trends at a glance. The one-off price includes data transfer for up to 10 years, so there’s no irritating annual subscription and once installed the device simply does its job.
