Boztek Remote Irrigation & Water Management Controller Our irrigation controller is a fully integrated unit and is designed as an expandable system. The irrigation controller comes standard as a 16 station unit. Eight-station expansion modules can be used to provide control for up to 48 stations. The controller comes mounted in a 600 x 600 galvanised steel enclosure and is complete with LCD display and control buttons for local operation and control. Scheduled irrigation operation can be over-ridden using the local control to enable additional watering or system testing. Depending on the existing irrigation control location relative to the primary controller location, the irrigation controller can be either hard wired to the primary or operated via radio link. Weather you require general irrigation control or commercial purpose designed solution our remote water management systems can fulfill the most demanding applications.
Pulse-flow meter The installation of a pulse flow meter enables council to log and monitor irrigation water usage. The flow-meter also allows for the monitoring of leaks within the irrigation system. The pulse-flow meter is typically installed in a valve box on the outlet pipe close to the irrigation header tank. Usually there is no power present, so the meter being used is a type that does not require any power. Communication from the pit will be via hard wiring to the irrigation controller if close by. If not, a radio is fitted to the meter to transmit flow data to the primary controller.
Daylight Sensor Daylight sensors can be fitted where Council prefers control of lighting based on dusk to dawn operation. Daylight sensors are often used in the control of amenities building security lighting. Rain Sensor Rain sensors can be used in conjunction with our primary controller to monitor and log rainfall. Where a tip-spoon or acoustic rain sensor is used, our controller has the ability to log and report rainfall at a site. Irrigation schedules can be set to automatically adjust where a rainfall event has occurred. If for example, 25mm of rain has been recorded as falling within a 24 hour period prior to an irrigation cycle, that cycle will be automatically skipped.
Weather Station Integration For more complex applications weather station integration to our weather management controller can provide provide interactive environmental logic control of irrigation systems and commercial plant / pump control based on pre-configured roster management combined with environmental logic control providing exception alarming or roster overrides based on current environmental conditions. |
