Transmitter
A simple maintenance-free radio transmitter with an internal
battery that is designed to last at least 6 years. The transmitter
is capable of receiving data from designated sensors and transmitting
it to the receiver located within a range of up to 3 km (2
miles). The antenna can be installed up to 6 meters (20 feet)
away from the transmitter using an extension cable.
Gro-Pointtm
Volumetric soil moisture sensor based on TDT (Time Domain
Transmissometry) provides fast and accurate response to changes
in soil moisture. The Gro-Pointtm measures a large soil volume
(5cm radius [2 inches] from the sensor elements) and is suitable
for all soil types. Durable and reliable, the sensor requires
no maintenance and is designed to remain in the soil permanently
or for an entire season.
Gro-Pointtm is available in three models:
GP-MS – most soils
GP-SS – sandy soils
GP-Hs – clay soils/ saline soils
Handheld Unit
Tensiometer
Measurements
A special transducer allows accurate and reliable measurements
of most traditional tensiometers. IrriWiseTM lets you shift
from labor-intensive manual readings to continuous-measurement.
The system also provides a clear indication when a tensiometer
has stopped working.
Weather
Station
A fully modular weather station supports the following sensors:
temperature, humidity, solar radiation, wind speed, wind direction,
rainfall, leaf wetness and soil temperature. The IrriWiseTM
weather Station is self-contained and will operate for one
year on 6 AA batteries.
Cross-referencing
of weather station parameters and soil moisture readings provide
a better understanding of plant behavior and can significantly
improve the ability to plan a well-based irrigation strategy.
Water
Meter
Actual reading of water meter installed on a specific lateral
or section, providing accurate runtime, volume and flow rate
of irrigation events, which can be presented graphically or
in a detailed report. This data is critical for cross-referencing
between irrigation events and soil moisture reading.
Receiver
The radio receiver is responsible for data reception from
the various transmitters and for transferring it via RS232
to the Pc.
