[Use-Case] Drip Irrigation

Management of water needs and intake

Water desalination is essential for agriculture and industry, yet inefficiencies in monitoring can lead to significant resource wastage and operational costs. Poorly managed desalination processes can result in water losses of up to 20%, increased energy consumption by as much as 30%, and compromised water quality, posing risks to crops and end uses. IoT solutions address these challenges by providing real-time insights and precise control. ECSens® monitors electrical conductivity (EC) at critical stages, ensuring water quality and system efficiency. PressureSens®, installed after the pump, sand filter, and micron filter, detects pressure drops, preventing filtration inefficiencies, reducing energy costs, and avoiding equipment damage. Konteau DN100® flow meters measure water flow rates at key points, optimizing flow management and station capacity while conserving energy. Kontelec® tracks energy usage across the system, identifying inefficiencies and lowering electricity costs. Together, these tools transform the desalination process, enhancing resource efficiency, reliability, and sustainability.

BEFORE

Without OneSensor® to measure soil moisture, EC, and temperature, it is difficult to know exactly when and how much to water. This can lead to over- or under-watering, which can stress trees, affect their growth, and lead to inefficient water use.

AFTER

With OneSensor®, you get accurate real-time data on soil moisture, EC, and temperature. This allows for optimized irrigation, delivering the right amount of water at the right time, improving tree health and reducing water waste.

BEFORE

Without KONTEAU+ DN20® to measure pressure, flow rate, and the amount of water delivered to each tree, it is difficult to control and optimize irrigation. This can lead to imbalances in water delivery, with some trees receiving too much or too little water, affecting their development and overall crop productivity.

AFTER

KONTEAU+ DN20® allows you to accurately monitor the pressure, flow rate, and amount of water delivered to each tree. This ensures uniform water distribution, efficient irrigation, and better water resource management, which is crucial for maximizing yields.

BEFORE

Without data on soil temperature, EC, and moisture, it is difficult to adjust irrigation based on actual soil conditions. This can lead to water stress or water overload, affecting soil quality and tree health.

AFTER

With OneSensor®, you can adjust irrigation based on accurate soil data, allowing you to meet the specific needs of trees based on current conditions. This improves soil quality and promotes healthy, productive tree growth.
