Accurate measurement for outdoor water use

Effective RWH and irrigation begin with accurate measurement, metering the water is vital to determine both the volumes of water and the flow rates pumped. Using this method will ensure that the correct amount of water is applied at each irrigation and that only the specified or required amount will be distributed among the land.

The future of RWH (rainwater harvesting)

RWH is the future of our new builds, it provides a sustainable method of watering crops, maintaining land and revegetating soils. The ‘collect and distribute’ method is future proof, reducing consumption of our resources. Monitoring these systems can be achieved by adding an irrigation meter, such as the WI from Apator PoWogaz, which has been specifically designed for water that isn’t 100% clean, ideal for UK farming. It provided a cost-effective way of monitoring consumption and allowing a controlled amount to be distributed. Flow rate control and measurement helps to ensure the proper usage of an irrigation system, it can also help to identify any issues within the system, a high flow rate can point to broken pipelines, whereas a low flow rate can show issues with the pump, obstructions within the pipes or drip emitters. Adding an irrigation meter to your system will provide a controlled way to improve or maintain your land and will certainly save money in the process.

We recommend using the WI irrigation meter from Apator PoWogaz, a highly regarded meter for irrigation, with a size range available from 50 - 200mm.
