The Kit includes everything that you need except for the evaporator. The components in the kit are as follows:
- Valve assembly
- Cylindrical float with magnet
- 7 float rings
- Inlet and outlet pipe (200mm x 15mm BSP)
- 2 19mm rubber grommets
- Inlet adaptor 15mm x 20mm
- Adjustable control dripper assembly
Key features
- Completely automatic
- No electricity is needed (no batteries, no solar panels, no computers, and no electronics)
- Smart irrigation controller – the irrigation is controlled by the prevailing weather conditions rather than a program
- Use for gravity feed or pressurised irrigation (water supply pressure at least 10 kPa)
- Use for sprinkler or drip irrigation
- Use for pressure compensating drippers or non pressure compensating drippers
- You can adjust the water usage during the irrigation event by adjusting the control dripper
- You can adjust the irrigation frequency by adjusting the float
- The irrigation frequency and the water usage rate are directly proportional to the net evaporation rate (evaporation minus rainfall)
- Responds appropriately to an unexpected heat wave
- When it rains, water enters the evaporator and delays the start of the next irrigation
- Uses much less water without affecting the yield
- Simple and low tech and so easy to assemble and fewer things to go wrong
- You can leave your garden unattended for weeks on end
