Pumping Solutions
Pumps used for irrigation include centrifugal, deep-well turbine, submersible and propeller pumps. Before selecting an irrigation pump, you must make a careful and complete inventory of the conditions under which the pump will operate, including the source of water (well, river, pond, etc.), required pumping flow rate, total suction head, and total dynamic head.
You usually have no choice about the source of the water; it is either surface water or well water, and the local geology and hydrologic conditions will determine the availability. However, the type of irrigation system, distance from the water source and size of the piping system will determine the flow rate and total dynamic head.
Additionally, we carry pumps that can help you add fertilizer into your system to make the most of your crop.
Chemical Injection Pumps
The chemical injection pump, also called the chemical dosing pump, can transport chemicals that are high-viscosity, corrosive or dangerous. The diaphragm rupture detection system will identify any problem areas that could affect the work of the irrigation pump.
Injection quills deposit chemicals near the center of the line where the flow is largest, providing more uniform dispersion, and the disk filter’s check and seat are located at the tip of the quill to allow constant flushing of the fertigation pump. Back pressure ensures metering accuracy.
The chemical injection pump prevents back flow and leaking when water pressure is low or the line is drained, and prevents siphoning when metering the chemigation pump.
Chemicals are sprayed evenly with quills, and the scale on the tank makes applying chemicals convenient and fast. After adding the appropriate amount of chemicals, the mixer works with them to create the right concentration.
The tank made from HDPE is highly corrosion-resistant, strong and reliable, and the tank body is seamless and well-designed. The inlet is tightly sealed and effectively prevents accidents resulting in harm to children or livestock.
Floating Pump Stations
In addition to the more common pumping solutions, RainFine can also advise on the design and implementation of floating pump stations to move water from larger waterways.
Such a project is underway in Sudan, which is among the driest and the sunniest places on Earth.
