The Pulsator 205 is an innovative agricultural device engineered to protect crops from extreme temperatures. It utilizes the insulating properties of water, delivering it in 360-degree micro-doses through a mechanical pulse-spray mechanism up to 22 feet to produce a thin shield of ice around the tree/fruit creating a blanket of insulation to ensure the fruit does not go below freezing temperatures. This method ensures efficient water usage while providing comprehensive coverage to shield fruit trees from temperature extremes.


How It Works

The device connects seamlessly to existing drip-line irrigation systems and is mounted above the tree canopy. Its design features a silicon sleeve that gradually fills with water, which is then rapidly ejected in a 360-degree spray pattern. This action creates a protective layer over the trees, mitigating the risk of frost damage by maintaining a stable microclimate around the fruit and blossoms.


Advantages of the Pulsator 205

  • Water Efficiency: Unlike traditional frost protection methods that require large volumes of water, the Pulsator 205 operates at drip-flow rates, significantly reducing water consumption.


  • Cost-Effectiveness: Its compatibility with existing irrigation infrastructure minimizes additional setup costs, making it an economical choice for growers.


  • Comprehensive Coverage: The 360-degree continuous spray ensures uniform protection across a wide area, safeguarding all parts of the tree.


  • Proven Reliability: With over 400 growers worldwide utilizing the Pulsator 205, it has demonstrated effectiveness in protecting more than 50,000 acres of crops.


Importance of Late-Season Freeze Protection

Late-season freezes can be particularly damaging as fruit trees are often in bloom or beginning to set fruit. Exposure to frost at this stage can kill buds and young fruit, leading to reduced yields or complete crop failure. The Pulsator 205 provides a proactive solution, enabling growers to shield their orchards from sudden temperature drops and ensure the survival and productivity of their fruit trees.


Conclusion

The Pulsator 205 stands out as a crucial investment for fruit growers aiming to protect their crops from late-season freezes. Its innovative design, water efficiency, and proven effectiveness make it an indispensable tool in modern orchard management.
