Agriculture Monitoring Systems
We have many years of experience selling, supporting and installing irrigation monitoring and control systems. Let us help you select the correct equipment needed to measure and monitor your system. We are low power and remote data experts. Contact us for a no obligation consultation.
Flumes and Weirs are primary device structures that are installed in the bottom of a ditch or channel, forcing the water to run through or over it. We offer many styles of flumes and weirs and can provide the needed sensors and monitoring equipment to create a flow recording system. We also offer remote data display and collection systems. These systems offer real-time views of the flows in your irrigation network. You can see water data on a PC, Smartphone or tablet. These systems can also send you email or text reports based on flows or water levels.
We also have Area Velocity Meters (AVFM) with sensors that can be installed in the bottom of a ditch, channel or pipe (culvert). These open channel velocity flow sensors measure both the velocity and depth of the water, which gives the ability to calculate flow (discharge). These sensors or systems are generally simple to install, and offer a much quicker way to begin collecting data than the usual flume or weir.
We can install fully automated irrigation monitoring and control systems. These are known as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems. When integrated into an irrigation network, a SCADA system can allow you to remotely monitor live data from flumes, manually or automatically adjust head gates and flow rates, monitor pond levels, and more. SCADA systems can save you hours of driving to remote sites to adjust gates or collect data.
SCADA systems vary widely in size and complexity, but they consist of at least one or more sensors, a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), and something to control, such as a pump, gate, or valve. Many systems also incorporate remote communications and internet-enabled control and monitoring software. Visit the links below, or call us at (435) 755-0774 to learn more.
We offer soil monitoring systems to measure soil moisture, temperature and salinity. In many cases, proper monitoring can reduce water usage 30-50% while simultaneously increasing yields.
