Automatic watering system design
We provide design, installation and maintenance services for automatic watering and irrigation systems
Automatic watering system is a preliminarily calculated and designed special system of pipes and devices that supply water and provide an irrigation of lawns, gardens, flower-gardens and kailyairds without a human intervention. Keeping a garden, a greenhouse or any kind of plantation can be quite tiring and time-consuming, and watering can be the most tiresome task of it all. Employing the automation of this process gives the opportunity to save a lot of time, nerves and money, due to optimization of watering periods and water discharge. Prolificness and appearance of plantations will be improved greatly thanks to equability and regularity of the irrigation. All of the above can be achieved by applying special irrigational techniques, created solely for the automated watering systems for private and municipal land lots.
Different plantations require watering of varied mode and intensity. Some crops respond better to a larger amount of water, some like it less, and so on. Some plantations require irrigation more often, while other plants need fewer, but more intense irrigation sessions. On the whole, just like any other kind of living creature, plants require an individual approach. Because of this there are three main methods of irrigation - sprinkling watering, drip watering and subsoil watering.
Types of automatic watering systems
The principle of work of this type of watering systems lies in the way this system discharges water - vertically, from above the plants, imitating rain drops. This system is usually used in the irrigation of flower beds, lawns, fields. There is a several types of area sprinkling systems, static or dynamic configurations, etc. , but the main principle of work remains the same. From the water source (water well, central water supply, water reservoir) an arterial pipe network is paved throughout the land lot beneath the soil. Next, by applying branches, small-diameter pipes, electromagnetic sensors, sprinkler and so on, the whole watering system is assembled. It is required to install water filters to the pipe system to ensure stable functioning of pipe junctions and to prevent water contamination. The whole system is managed by a controller (automation block), which can be tuned to adjust the functioning of the irrigation system to the correct values.
This system will automatically arrange an optimal and regular watering of a given area according to the set values of time interval, radius and water discharge. Owing to the wide range of accessories and materials for the system, a quality irrigation of land lots of any area ranging from a cottage lawn to a soccer field is achieved.
Mainly, the automatic sprinkling system consists of the following:
1. Automatics and electrics:
- Pumps and pumping stations;
- Flow control units;
- Control panels;
- Electromagnetic vents;
- Precipitation and soil humidity sensors, meteorological stations;
2. Accumulators and water sprinklers:
- Storage tanks;
- Nozzles;
- Sprinklers;
- Water outlets (or hydrants);
3. Connective parts:
- Connective branches;
- Pipeline;
- Pipeline fittings;
- Electroconductive cable;
- Connectors;
4. Accessories:
- Boxes;
- Float valves;
- Check valves;
- Orbicular taps;
- Equipment tuning accessories.
This system is used to irrigate plantations that respond poorly to the vertical watering technique. Water, essential for plants, is supplied in the form of small drips of water straight to the root of a plant, leaving the stem and leaves untouched. This method is used for the irrigation of bushes, greenhouse and garden bed plants. Such scheme of watering is considered the most economical one, it consumes water rationally and in small quantities, supplying water straight to the watering site, while not using splashing, which greatly increases lifetime of the whole system.
Plastic pipes are laid down on the surface of the ground near the plants. Throughout the whole length of the pipe, at the equal intervals, special droppers are installed or holes are punctured. Through these openings water is supplied directly to the ground, irrigating the plantations. This watering system will automatically supply optimal amount of water regularly on the specified time periods, in the set area and using set volume of water. Owing to the wide range of accessories and materials for the system, a quality irrigation of land lots of any area and of any difficulty is achieved.
Mainly, the automatic drip system consists of the following:
1. Automatics and electrics:
- Pumps and pumping stations;
- Flow control units;
- Control panels;
- Electromagnetic vents;
2. Accumulators and water sprinklers:
- Storage tanks;
- Water outlets (or hydrants);
- Drip hoses and pipes;
3. Connective parts:
- Connective branches;
- Pipeline;
- Pipeline fittings;
- Electroconductive cable;
- Connectors;
4. Accessories:
- Boxes;
- Float valves;
- Check valves;
- Orbicular taps;
- Equipment tuning accessories.
Automatic subsoil watering system resembles sprinkling irrigational system in a way that the pipes in this system are paved through the ground - a whole invisible ecosystem of drip perforated pipe networks, laid in the soil at a certain depth, and watering process in this system is executed directly in the layer of earth, water being supplied directly to the roots of different plants.
Subsoil watering is suitable for greenhouse irrigation, where perennial crotchety plants (like rose bushes) vegetate.
This method of irrigation minifies water consumption: water permeates right to the root system of plants.
Mainly, the automatic subsoil watering system consists of the following:
1. Automatics and electrics:
- Pumps and pumping stations;
- Flow control units;
- Control panels;
- Electromagnetic vents;
2. Accumulators and water sprinklers:
- Storage tanks;
- Water outlets (or hydrants);
- Drip hoses and pipes;
3. Connective parts:
- Connective branches;
- Pipeline;
- Pipeline fittings;
- Electroconductive cable;
- Connectors;
4. Accessories:
- Boxes;
- Float valves;
- Check valves;
- Orbicular taps;
- Equipment tuning accessories.
“AquaGeo Holding” provides automatic watering systems installation services. By using professional equipment made by the world’s best manufacturers like Hunter, RainBitd, or WeatherMatic, our company will provide high quality care for your plantations. You can easily find any piece of equipment necessary for keeping your land lot in perfect condition in our catalogue. Our consultants will help you pick the most effective watering system with the most suitable productive capacity and resource intensity.
- The size of a land lot
- The presence of any buildings, walkways and other structures;
- The soil type, water absorption capacity of the soil taken into account;
- Types of plants, watering requirements of each plantation taken into account;
- The water source and its location;
- The wishes of a customer himself;
Consequently, watering of a land lot requires an individual approach, and, when making an order, you are advised to arrange an on-site visit from our company’s engineer to conduct measurements of the lot or, alternatively, to send us a site plan of your land lot and a detailed plan of planting sites, where you should indicate locations of plantations, types of plants and their varieties.
