Central Control Networks

The most successful irrigation central control operators recognize that their "communication network irrigates". In designing or implementing a central control network, ion will ensure:

• The proposed solution works right the first time- automatically and immediately
• That the significant investment in central control actually is a labour-saving, water conservation asset and not an operations or IT liability

We have designed large systems with communication networks using software, hardware and combinations of communication types to manage pumps, soil moisture sensors and weather links.

ion has in its office the following central control products that we have been specifying for municipal- institutional clients or operating for our fast-growing irrigation management division on a fee-for-service basis:

• Aqua Management
