-
What is the main difference between The Pulsator 205 and other alternative systems?The Pulsator 205 operates at much lower flow than traditional irrigation systems. The Pulsator 205 flow rate is 15 gallons/minute/acre.
-
How much are the savings in water, energy, and initial investment of The Pulsator 205?When installing a climate control system using the Pulsator 205, the pumps, pipes, and filters can all be smaller due to the low flow rates requires. This saves significant money versus a traditional high flow system. Energy costs will be significantly lower as well as total volume of water used due to the efficiency of the Pulsator 205.
-
What if I have limited water sources?The Pulsator 205 is a highly efficient solution for climate protection of fruit trees, vineyards, nut trees, citrus, berries, and avocados. If you have water restrictions and limitations, you should evaluate the viability of your business.
-
Can I modify the water flow rates once installed?Because the Pulsator 205 flow is determined by standard pressure compensated drippers it is relatively easy to change the flow rate after a system is installed.
-
Does it work for all types of planting frames?Yes the Pulsator 205 works with all planting frames and is easily adaptable.
-
What are the main features of the Pulsator 205?Low flow. Low precipitation rate. Large diameter. Large drop size.
-
Are there similar devices?There are no climate control devices available that are similar to The Pulsator 205.
-
How does it work with the PulseMax 360 emitter?The PulseMax 360 allows The Pulsator 205 to provide a helical water pattern up to 22 feet in diameter to cover crops requiring protection from temperature extremes.
-
How long does the installation of The Pulsator 205 take?It usually requires only a few minutes to install each Pulsator.
-
Who installs the system? Do we have quality guarantee?Your local agricultural and crop management crew will do the installation. The Pulsator will replace defective parts.
-
What other complementary elements are required to install the system? Are they delivered by the same supplier?The Pulsator 205 is typically mounted using 0.5-inch PVC pipe that is widely available by numerous agricultural supplier sources.
-
Do I have technical assistance during the installation period?Your agricultural and irrigation distributors can provide technical assistance.
-
At how many degrees of temperature do I have to turn on the frost or heat control system?It would depend on the type of crop and other factors such as dew point.
-
At how many degrees of temperature do I have to turn it off?This depends on the type of crop. For frost, the Pulsator 205 is turned off when the temperature is above freezing.
-
At how many degrees of temperature do I have to turn it off?This depends on the type of crop. For frost, the Pulsator 205 is turned off when the temperature is above freezing.
-
Can I have an automatic system splitter?You would need to have the system split at the main which would require a greater expense in piping and valves.
-
What happens if there is a power outage or other contingency with the irrigation house?Power outages are not something the Pulsator can solve. You would need to work with your local utility to resolve an outage.
-
What happens if there are mechanical failures of the systems (breakage, uncoupling)?Most potential issues with the Pulsator 205 are easily repaired in the field.
-
Can I use the system to lower the temperature of a specific property?Yes, the Pulsator 205 works well with a variety of fruit trees, vineyards, nut trees, citrus, berries, and avocados.
-
Have you tried other uses such as foliar applications? Humidification?Yes. It is possible to address other foliar applications with different Pulsator products.
-
Is there a risk of fungi, bacteria, or other diseases?There may be a potential to increase issues caused by higher humidity and soil moisture content, but the increase, if any, would be slight.
