DIY Unpowered Measured Irrigation Controller Kit

The Do-It-Yourself Kit is easy to assemble and cuts the price of the Unpowered Measured Irrigation Controller by more than 50%. Please watch the video DIY Unpowered Measured Irrigation Controller Kit

The Kit can be purchased online from the Measured Irrigation Shop

Let me remind you of the features,

· Completely automatic

· No electricity is needed (no batteries, no solar panels, no solenoids, and no electronics)

· It’s a smart irrigation controller – the irrigation is controlled by the prevailing weather conditions

· Use for gravity feed or pressurised irrigation

· Use for sprinkler or drip irrigation

· Use for pressure compensating drippers or non pressure compensating drippers

· You can adjust the water usage by adjusting the control dripper

· You can adjust the irrigation frequency by adjusting the float and the control screw

· The water usage is directly proportional to the net evaporation rate
(this is a unique feature of measured irrigation)

· Responds appropriately to an unexpected heat wave

· When it rains, water enters the evaporator and delays the start of the next irrigation

· Water usage is independent of the water supply pressure
(this is a unique feature of measured 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

The kit includes everything that you need except the evaporator.
