Agrónic Bit

Agrónic Bit

Multifunctional controller for water management,

configurable, versatile and expandable, with very low consumption.

It can manage irrigations, apply fertilizers, control general or hydrants

in irrigation communities, use sensors of all types for their interaction

with fertirrigation, make complete records as datalogger and historical

to ensure traceability of irrigation sectors, counters and sensor.

Description

The Agrónic Bit is a suitable controller for:

The sectorization of irrigation in small farms, especially in sprinkler irrigation.

Multi-plots management, using different communication options and external modules.

Working as a Datalogger for the recording of climatic and agronomic sensors.

Mobile installations associated with leases or rotating crops.

Communities of irrigators for the telecontrol jointly of the hydrants and of the sectors of the interior of the plot.

Centralized management of irrigation in parks and gardens.

Working as a robot or control Plc for multiple applications in hydraulic networks and for water treatment processes and treatment plants.

The management of water counterss in urban supply networks.

Models

The controller has several models according to the type of output, and the number thereof.

Formats

Choose the Bit Din format, internal connections via terminals, the Bit Con format with external "M12" quick-connect connectors or the Bit Cab format with color-coded multi-core cable.

Versions

Choose between the Basic Version or the Net Version for the management of irrigation communities

FeaturesThese are the available features of the controller

1
IRRIGATION

Performs the control of up to 20 irrigation sectors governed by 30 independent programs, with the corresponding expansions, and the possibility of chaining programs to perform irrigation sequences.

Each program can activate simultaneously from 1 to 4 irrigation sectors, without limit of sectors with simultaneous action in several programs.

Possibility of sequencing programs one after the other to simplify, even automatic alternation of programs, so that everyone can water throughout the days at different times. Program a watering and repeat it automatically several times for use in seedbeds or in sandy soils.

Operate on weekdays or on certain days. Limit a program to one period of the year. Limit watering to a schedule of the day to avoid expensive hours.

Irrigation units by time (hh:mm and mm'ss''), volume (m3), volume hectare (m3/ha) and time hectare (hh:mm/ha), independent by program. Time limit units in application by volume.

Condition the start and stop of irrigation by sensors that detect soil, climate or plant conditions and modify the irrigation and fertilization units according to their values and even manage safety.

Massive programming per crop carried out from the PC or in the mobile application.

Proportional distribution of each pulse of the counter in the accumulated and historical, according to the expected flow of the sectors related to the counter that irrigate at the same time.

Complete control of the instantaneous flow in the irrigation counter sensors, with programming of the expected flow in each sector and percentage of tolerance both for excess and for defect. Detection of lack of pulses or leakage.

2
FERTILIZATION

Allows a single fertilizer per irrigation head up to a maximum of 10 fertilizers in multi-plots management

One fertilizer can be configured per program, with independent pre- and post-irrigation values for each program.

Fertilization units in time (hh:mm and mm'ss""), volume (L), volume per hectare (L/ha) or time hectare (hh:mm/ha).

In the counters sensors, optionally detection of lack of pulses or leakage of fertilizer. Proportional distribution of each pulse of the counter in the accumulated and historical according to the expected flow of the sectors that fertilize at the same time.

Bombeo

3
PUMPING

It has 1 general output of irrigation or engine with assignment to the sectors that will activate it.

Timing to avoid water hammer in the opening and closing actions of the sectors and of the general one.

Ordenes manuales

4
Manual

Manual commands can be used:

To start, to stop, to leave out of service or to suspend to certain hours the programs of irrigation; out of service or general stop; end of alarms and failures; sectors in manual or in automatic; to modify virtual sensors and direct activation of the exits.

5
DETERMINING FACTORS

It has 50 fully configurable determining factors to perform actions that will take into account the status or values of the 35 possible digital sensors, 40 analog sensors and 20 sensor counters.

The actions are as varied as being able to make definitive, temporary or conditional stops applied to a specific program or to all of them; to start and/or stop an irrigation; to give a warning; to adjust the irrigation units or fertilizer at the beginning of the irrigation program according to an instantaneous value of a sensor or the integrated value from the previous irrigation. In addition, each determining factor can be configured to generate an anomaly or just one record, to send an SMS message to two phones and an SMS message to another controller.

In order to use the determining factor of Modify irrigation, Modify fertilizer, End due to rain and Stop fertilizer, the option of program determining factor must be activated.

As examples, we can highlight the use to end irrigation due to a break in a pipe; postpone irrigation due to lack of level or excess wind; modify the volume of each irrigation in relation to the value of water content in soil, solar radiation received by the plant from the previous irrigation or evapotranspiration; end irrigation if a certain amount of rain has precipitated since the previous irrigation; notify the owner for attempted theft, etc.

Lectura acumulados

6
Datalogger

The controller stores in non-erasable memory the accumulated, historical and event records with the anomalies of the last days. Capacity for 120,000 records.

Allows historical to ensure traceability of 20 irrigation sectors, 20 sensors counters and 40 analog sensors. Events of action. Alarms.

  • Accumulated general and by sector of the irrigation and fertilization units, in time and volume, from an initial date.
  • Anomalies with the date and time of the incident and related indications.
  • Detailed record of each of the events produced by the controller.
  • Independent history by irrigation sector, with the units in time and volume of irrigation and fertilizer applied each day.
  • History of each analog sensor with the average, maximum and minimum values in 10-minute fractions.
  • Historical of each counter sensor with the irrigation or fertilization value plus the leakage value in fractions of 10 minutes.

Net Version Remote unit for irrigation communities

In its version for irrigation communities, the Agrónic Bit allows:

Equipo
Local and/or centralized remote control

by communicating with the Agrónic Net II program in the Control Center from 1 to 6 hydrants

Carrying out fertigation

within the plots linked to the hydrants.

Condiconantes
Capacity

40 sectors, 24 counters and 6 hydrants with 40 management programs.

sensor
Complete control of openings and closings

of the elements of the irrigation installation to avoid water hammer, the maintenance of the pipes in load, etc.

Enlace AgroBee
Through AgroBee / Agrobee-L radio modules

will be able to control electrovalves and sensors inside the plot or group the management of hydrants with a single controller.

Agrobee-L only available for Bit Con/Cab version.

External modules

AgroBee-L
AgroBee-L
Radio modules for the activation of valves and other irrigation elements, as well as the reading of sensors and counters.

The AgroBee-L modules work with LoRa radio modulation, which operates in the free bands of 868 MHz, 433 MHz and 915 MHz, obtaining coverage radios of up to 2500 m between two points (depending on the orography).

They are the best solution to save costs as a substitute for the cable, to avoid incidents typical of the microtube installation, to overcome obstacles, to expand sectors, to carry out temporary installations, etc.

Their low consumption allows them to operate with solar panel integrated in the module, storing the energy in the supercapacitors or battery (depending on model), offering a long operating life.

Currently the AgroBee-L modules can be incorporated to the fertigation controllers Agrónic 2500, Agrónic 5500 and Agrónic Bit Con/Cab.
