SAVE TIME, WATER, AND MONEY WITH SENSE GATEWAY

Canal Gate Automation

Control water flow downstream of your check structures and fee-only the water that is needed to supply your Field Delivery Turnouts.

Sensor included 

  • Upstream and Downstream water level sensors

  • Actuator

    • Gate position sensors

    • Gate actuator relays and protection system.

Power System

This is a 12vdc system. Based on the number of actuated gates we will select the right size solar panel and battery system. 

 

Weather Enclosure

14"x12"x6" NEMA 4X enclosure with a full door hinged and lockable latch

 

Remotely control the actuated gates with a local push button pendant or remote through your phone, tablet, or computer. The secure cloud-based interface and data collection historian will store your data and display it on a web Dashboard. From this interface, you can adjust the height of the gate, as well as switch the sites into local or remote control modes. If you have multiple sites down a given canal system you can even use the advanced features to control sites in a flow-demand mode. This will send water only if the canal gate sites downstream need water.

Field Delivery Turnout

Two options for flow metering with or without gate-actuated control. Start/Stop inflows into a field and calculate the total acre-feet delivered.

Sensors included 

  • Upstream and Downstream water level sensors

With gate control

  • Actuator

    • Gate position sensor

    • Gate actuator relays and protection system.

Control from a local push button pendant or remote through your phone, tablet, or computer. Data connection every 15 minutes for flow calculation updates and control requests

End Field Drainage

At the end of your Irrigation fields know the water level and calculation returned acre-feet. Use this information to control your Field Delivery Turnouts.

Sensors included 

  • Upstream water level sensors are used with a box weir structure.

View remotely through your phone, tablet, or computer. Data connection every 15 minutes for sensor conditions update.

Data condition from this site can we use adaptive control with the Field Delivery Turnout
