In modern agricultural production, the ability to control water resources is the most important factor directly affecting crop yield and farm profitability. In classic irrigation methods, walking out to the distant valve points of the field to open and close valves one by one causes both a serious loss of time and uncontrolled irrigation. Smart control valves, developed to prevent this, have become an indispensable part of modern farming.
The Role of Solenoid Valves
Solenoid valves are hydraulic valves that can open and close the water automatically by receiving an electrical signal through a small integrated coil (solenoid). Thanks to these valves, which connect to irrigation computers or wireless stations, irrigation in the field starts and stops automatically at pre-programmed times, day or night.
Advantages of Smart Valves
- Precise Pressure Control: Prevents excessive pressure from reaching the drip lines at the end of the line, avoiding bursts.
- Savings in Time and Labor: Makes it possible to manage hundreds of decares of land remotely and autonomously, without the need for field staff.
- Easy Night Irrigation: Minimizes water loss by allowing irrigation during the night hours, when evaporation is lowest.
All hydraulic control valves we produce at Sistem Vana are manufactured at our Konya factory with glass-fiber-reinforced bodies resistant to harsh field chemicals and diaphragm designs offering high sealing, and are fully compatible with smart automation systems.
