The Power of Conditional Logic in your Irrigation Automation System

Using conditional logic to power your irrigation automation system provides powerful capabilities that help drive efficiencies on the farm and in the field. Let's find out more.

All irrigation operations can be automated with four words: IF, OR, AND, THEN. By Setting Conditional programs (logic) within your irrigation operations, your automated system can determine scenarios and outcomes automatically, without any manual user input. Adding conditional logic, which is a capability offered from Branif Systems, automation of pumps, reservoirs and other irrigation or water management assets become significantly more "automatic".

If a leak occurs, our system will automatically suspend irrigation - and send you an alert, that's powerful.

Irrigating

Conditional programs for irrigation is used to detect leaks, run dynamic programs, stop irrigation, reduce water usage and detect faults.

  • If it’s raining right now, suspend all irrigation
  • If the pressure exceeds 60PSI for longer than 40 seconds, open pressure relief valve 1 and 2.
  • If reservoir is below 25%, shut off low priority irrigation

Pumping

Pumps are dynamic. They affect the entire irrigation operation. IRRInet enables complex conditional programs to be set for pumps to cover nearly all circumstances

  • If the pressure exceeds 60PSI for longer than 40 seconds, turn off all pumps connected to that mainline.
  • If current draw in the VFD motor exceed X amps, suspend all irrigation connected with the particular pump
  • If reservoir X is at 100%, turn off all pumps feeding water to reservoir X
  • A Dashboard of an Irrigation Field Controller by IRRInet X

    Other Dynamic Logic Scenarios

    Our dynamic conditions are powerful tools. With them, custom features and aspects of your irrigation operations can be automated easily and seamlessly.

  • If a particular action does not happen, or an unscheduled event happens, command IRRInet to perform another action, such as send an alert to the operator
  • With Motorola Irrigation’s dynamic conditions, actions that have been affected by a condition can change in real-time with the irrigation’s current state, giving true automatic and intelligent irrigation
  • With nearly endless possibilities of combinations and actions IRRInet conditional programs can affect, the only limitation is your irrigation and imagination.
