Fertigation unit AGRIMIX-L
The fertigation system AGRIMIX-L allows the automatic mixing from 2 (AGRIMIX-L2) to 6 (AGRIMIX-L6) mother solutions (A, B, C, D, E and F) and an acid solution for pH control, to form and distribute to the crop the desired fertilizing solution.
The mixing is IN-PRESSURE, which means it works injecting A, B, C,..,F in a pressurized mixing tank, according to the recipe programmed by the user, that is in function of the relative parts of A, B, C,…, F and the electrical conductivity (EC) of the final solution.
The AGRIMIX-L can have 16 (AGRIMIX-L/16) or 32 (AGRIMIX-L/32) or 48 (AGRIMIX-L/48) outputs for Irrigation/Fertigation Valves. The electrovalves can be grouped in 32 programs, or sequences, of 16 groups of valves. Each group can contain from 1 to 6 valves.
The composition of the groups of valves in a program is free: you can choose the valves among all those that are connected to the Agrimix-L.
An Irrigation Program can be activated in different ways :
- at 5 different daily times;
- cyclically with a constant programmable pause and a programmable number of activations;
- cyclically, with variable pause between activations, in function of a solar radiation counter (solar integrator, see later);
- by closing a contact by an external equipment, for example a X-WET-FDR controller.
The AGRIMIX-L is delivered complete of EC, Ph and light sensors and the solar integrator are included in the standard unit. Optionally the System can be delivered with double EC and pH sensors: if the difference in the measurements made by the two sensors is higher than a programmable value, after a programmable time, the irrigation program proceeds distributing only clear water.
Up to 16 AGRIMIX-L can be connected to a Supervision PC, from which all the fertigation unit can be controlled and programmed.
AGRIMIX-L2K/3K :
The fertigation system AGRIMIX-L2K (-L3K) allows the automatic mixing of 2 (3) mother solutions (A, B,(C)) and an acid solution for pH control, to form and distribute to the crop a fertilizing solution.
The machine is controlled by a very easy to use, but powerful computer.
Although conceived as an entry level low cost machine, it allows a very precise and reliable fertigation management.
Features:
- Mixing IN-LINE: direct injection of A, B and acid solution in the pressurized water, according to the recipe programmed by the user (EC and pH).
- AGRIMIX-L3K for mixing 3 mother solutions+acid (A, B, C).
- Installation in by-pass of the main irrigation pipe. No booster pump is necessary: it uses the booster pump of the firm.
- On-board recirculation pump for injecting the solution in the main irrigation pipe (maximum pressure of 5 BAR).
- Designed for a maximum flow of 20 m3/h in the main pipe. Higher flow dimensioning possible.
- Very efficient protection of the EC and pH probes for a long time use without problems.
- 16 different recipes and 16 irrigation programs. To each irrigation program can be associated a different recipe and, also, the same recipe can be associated to different programs. In each recipe programmable alarm thresholds for high and low EC and pH.
- In each irrigation program, control of the distribution of the fertilizing solution by activating in sequence 16 groups of valves, freely programmable. In each group from 1 to 4 valves that are activated for the same time (one valve and until 3 co-valves). For each group of valves it is programmable a different opening duration in minutes and seconds. Optionally a volume irrigation is also possible. In this case a litres counter must also be installed.
- The base AGRIMIX-L2K/-L3K can command 8 irrigation valves. The AGRIMIX-L2/24 can command 24 valves expandable to 40.
- An Irrigation Program can be activated at 5 different daily times; cyclically with a constant programmable pause and a programmable number of activations; cyclically, with variable pause between activations, in function of a light counter (solar integrator).
- The EC and pH sensors are included. The light sensor for the light counter is optional.
- An Irrigation Program can be activated everyday or only in certain days of the week (weekly programming) or with a certain interval in days (every two days, every three days, etc.).
- Ergonomic construction: easy access to the computer by the operator, standing up, without bending.
- Inox steel frame with levelling feet.
