QATARAT - Smart Irrigation System

Overview

The most common Irrigation Systems let you set a time-period per basin without any knowledge of how much water volume is really consumed.

The length of water pipes, the number of openings in the pipe, the variation of pump pressure, besides the height of the land all impact the amount for water flow. In such a case, setting a Time-Period for basins gives no idea if the basin was over-irrigated or under-irrigated. Volume irrigation solves all these issues.

QATARAT - our Smart Irrigation System which enables you to set Irrigation Schedules based on the volume of water required per basin, in addition to the usual Time-period Schedules. In Volume-based Schedules the amount of water required per basin type is set differently from others; ornamental trees, grass, fruit trees... Hence ensuring NO over-irrigation/under-irrigation. In addition, water is used economically resulting in saving in Water Utility Bills.

The system can be controlled and monitored from the same place (locally) or remotely over the Internet from any web browser. All what you need to do is to check the irrigation reports sent by the system. Reports, Notifications, and Alerts can be received over SMS, Email, WhatsApp, and Phone Calls with digital voice in case of emergency notifications.

The Electrical Valves used are safe and rated at 24V to avoid any electrical hazards. In case of electricity shutdown, you can still open the electrical valve manually.

In addition, Our QATARAT smart irrigation system uses standard industrial components not limited to any brand. The user can select from our recommended components or from his preferred vendors if desired.

Smart Irrigation is not anymore considered a luxury solution, it is becoming a demand to save water consumption and avoid high Water Utility Bills.

Flexibility: Unscheduled and Manual Irrigation

  

At any time, you can irrigate the basins for any desired water-volume or time-period without following any schedule using the dashboard in the application

  

In case of electricity shutdown, you can still open the electrical valve manually if you have a water source which can flow without the need for a pump like an upper tank for example, QATARAT irrigation system is so flexible

Setting an Irrigation Sequence

  

Configure the sequence as Water-Volume or Time-Period

  

Add the basins required to the sequence in-order by setting the volume required in liters or time-period in minutes

  

You can configure as many sequences as required

Setting an Irrigation Schedule

  

Set the Days & Time when to start a sequence

  

You can configure as many schedules as required for morning, evening, night, daily, weekly, ...

Configurable Alerts as per user

  

Email

  

SMS

  

WhatsApp

  

Phone Call with digital voice for critical alerts

Viewing Irrigation Reports/History

  

An Irrigation Report is generated after each schedule is finished

  

User can check if schedule was totally successful or in case issues occurred during irrigation like; low water flow, water leakage, high water flow ...

  

Irrigation Reports can also be received over emails, SMS, and WhatsApp

  

Irrigation Reports are kept for a month time in QATARAT irrigation system

Viewing Current Irrigation Status for a running Schedule

  

Sequence type being used; Water-volume or Time-period

QATARAT Lite

QATARAT Lite is a mini version of our product QATARAT. A Smart Compact Design comprising an irrigation controller, four electrical valves, a water meter, and with pump control. In addition to the most important feature, that is, monitoring and control over the internet.

Plug and Play

QATARAT Lite Lite is ready for use, no additional mechanical or electrical installations are needed. Just connect the irrigation pipes to the valves’ outputs and to the water-in input.

QATARAT Lite Lite specially designed for House Gardens & Small Farms.

Same fantastic features as in QATARAT

  

Monitoring and control from mobile/desktop over the Internet

  

Fully Automated Irrigation Schedules as desired: Morning, Evening, Daily, and weekly

  

Setting Schedule per basin based on Water Volume (liters) or Time-period (minutes)

  

Alerting on low/high water flow and leakage

  

Reporting Water Consumption per basin and total

Built-in Electronic Water Meter

The water meter allows you to irrigate the right amount of water.

The variation in the length of irrigation pipes, the number of openings in the pipe, the pump pressure, besides the height of the basins are all factors impacting water flow. In such cases, setting a Time-Period schedule for basins gives no idea if the basins are over-irrigated or under-irrigated. Irrigation by volume ensures the right amount of water always.

Smart and Compact Design

Following components are all assembled in one device that suits most home gardens:

  

An Irrigation Controller

  

Four Electrical Ball Valves

  

A Water Flow Meter

  

A Dry Contact to control the Main Pump

Electrical Safety & Resiliency

  

The device and the electrical valves all operate on 12V to avoid any electrical hazards

  

Auto-close valves during electricity failure
