Irrigation Machines  >>

Galcon’s unique fertigation machines are designed for mixing fertilizer with irrigation water. Venturi pumps inject fertilizer into the pressurized water system. These irrigation systems can employ up to 8 channels of fertilizer injection together.

The irrigation machines address the need for hydroponics irrigation for greenhouse cultivation. Since plants in greenhouses grow in a substrate (soil-less), they must receive all needed nutrients at a specific EC (electric conductivity) and pH (acidity) level. This requires that fertigation must be according to the EC/pH of the irrigation water. Such irrigation makes it easy to maintain the desired concentration of the fertilizer. Even in case of a preparation error or a substantial chemical complex, the correct fertigation will end up in the irrigation water.

Galcon provides four types of irrigation machines:

• Fertimix – Galcon’s mixing machine that includes a mixing tank, Galcon’s Galileo controller and EC/pH control.

• Fertigal - Galcon’s inline mixing machine with direct injection (without the need for a mixing tank). All Fertigals come with a Galileo controller as well as EC/pH control.

• Fertijet – Galcon’s by-pass mixing machine with direct injection that includes a Galileo controller and EC/pH control.

• Fertidozer- a by-pass mixing machine with no controller and EC/pH control.
