Designer provides: Hydraulic design System layout Importance Pressure and flow rates differences Pipe hydraulics - correct product selection Spacing (drippers, sprinklers) Filter system selection Key locations for maintenance Grower Benefit Efficient and economical choice optimal velocity for flushing Ease of maintenance of system with least amount of labor
3 Influencing Factors Professional irrigation designers evaluate additional information that will influence their decision in equipment selection and placement. Influencing Factors Pest pressure Root intrusion Clogging Design Decisions - Wall thickness - Location in the soil - Crops - SDI (Sub-surface drip irrigation) - Chemigation Option - Water analysis - Filtration selection - Dripper selection - Chemigation Options
4 Influencing Factors Water Source Treatment Leakage Prevention Filtration Flow Rate Follow-Up Operating Pressure Chemical Treatment Flushing

28 Practical Examples Part III Outline: Design Influencing Factors Monitoring Troubleshooting
29 Design Influencing Factors Grower Question: Where my farm is located, we have freezing conditions. Are there special design factors that I need to pay attention to during the construction of my irrigation system?
30 Design Influencing Factors Grower Question: Where my farm is located, we have freezing conditions. Are there special design factors that I need to pay attention to during the construction of my irrigation system? Response and Possible Solution: All of the water in the irrigation system must be removed before the temperature drops below freezing. This will require additional flush locations and drains to remove the water or the use of a compressor.
31 Design Influencing Factors Grower Question: Do I need flush-outs for my main lines and manifolds?
32 Design Influencing Factors Grower Question: Do I need flush-outs for my main lines and manifolds? Response and Possible Solution: Yes, to keep the velocity in the main line high enough to move the dirt out of the pipeline. Manifolds are designed to balance the pressure loss and are much smaller than the mainline, and moving water through the manifold can expose the driplines to dirt. Place the flush out at the end of a pipe line.
33 Management Grower Question: The local government agency told me that all water applied to my field must remain on my field, If I can t drain water from my field, how do I still flush my pipelines?
34 Management Grower Question: The local government agency told me that all water applied to my field must remain on my field, If I can t drain water from my field, how do I still flush my pipelines? Response and Possible Solution: The water can be flushed into a holding tank or a water truck tank and spread around the field on the roads. Flush it into a tail water system or drainage system that recirculates it back to the source
35 Monitoring Grower Question: My filters have an automatic flushing system, How often do I need to manually clean my filters?
36 Monitoring Grower Question: My filters have an automatic flushing system, How often do I need to manually clean my filters? Response and Possible Solution: Filter elements need to be cleaned when the pressure difference reaches 0.5 bar or at least once a week. When using automated filters use pressure differential (pd) on 5.0m and or 6 hours. Manually flush once a month to check the operation of the filter.
37 Monitoring Grower Question: Other growers have warned me to check on my drippers, How do I find out that my drippers are working properly?
38 Monitoring Grower Question: Other growers have warned me to check on my drippers, How do I find out that my drippers are working properly? Response and Possible Solution: There are two ways to tell that your drippers are working properly. First are your plants healthy or show signs of stress. The second compare the flow meter rate to the recorded rate when the system first operated. If you can see a reduction in flow rate the drippers might be blocked.
39 Monitoring Grower Question: What type of devices should be installed to help me monitor my system?
40 Monitoring Grower Question: What type of devices should be installed to help me monitor my system? Response and Possible Solution: A properly designed and installed system should include an accurate flow meter to monitor the system flow rate. The system will also require pressure gages located at the pump and control filter to monitor the pressure changes. Also pressure gauges should be installed at the manifolds to ensure the driplines are operating at the proper pressure.
41 Troubleshooting Grower Question: I monitored my flow rate from the beginning of the year and now I notice I have a 10% reduction in flow rate. What happened?
42 Troubleshooting Grower Question: I monitored my flow rate from the beginning of the year and now I notice I have a 10% reduction in flow rate. What happened? Possible Response: Always remember that changes in flow rates should accompany a change in pressure. If the pressure is increased, and you have a reduction in flow rate it is often associated with plugged or clogged drippers. If there is a decrease in pressure and a drop in flow rate the water table may have dropped.
43 Troubleshooting Grower Question: I noticed a lot of water around my pressure relief valve. Why does my pressure relief valve go on all the time?
44 Troubleshooting Grower Question: I noticed a lot of water around my pressure relief valve, Why does my pressure relief valve go on all the time? Response: The pressure relief valve goes on when the pressure in the system increases above the pre-set value that the valve was originally set. This is often due to plugging in the filters, closed valves, pressure surges and plugging in the emission devices.
45 Troubleshooting Grower Question: My pipelines were buried in the road and I noticed I have wet areas in my field along my pipelines. Do I need to replace my pipes?
46 Troubleshooting Grower Question: My pipelines were buried in the road and I noticed I have wet areas in my field along my pipelines. Do I need to replace my pipes? Response and Possible Solution: It depends. Wet spots along the pipeline can indicate cracked pipelines or damages pipes underground and a thorough investigation needs to occur to determine the problem and possible cause.
