The Standard irrigator is ideal for irrigating areas up to around 20 acres. It is perfect for all types of horticulture and open fields. Purely mechanical, it has no gearbox, hydraulics or water winch so most of the normal irrigator problems have been removed. This makes the irrigator extremely durable and low maintenance.

With a 200m run and throwing up to an impressive 36m, a 1.8 acre area can be irrigated in a single run. The standard walking irrigator has 4 speeds and has an optional automatic shut off valve that will shut the water off at the end of the pass. If the shut off valve is not required it can easily be disconnected and the irrigator will just stop walking when it reaches the end of its pass. A great asset to any farm or acreage.

Nozzles: The irrigator comes with washers to create three different nozzle diameters. For specifications see the performance table below. Effluent nozzles can be supplied on request.

Optional Irrigator Accessories:

Layflat Hose with Camlocks: 100m of 50mm heavy duty, ribbed layflat hose with aluminium camlocks and clamps (1x 'C' camlock, 1x 'A' camlock). These can be joined to extend the length.

Automatic Shutoff Valve: This valve assembly will shut the water supply to the irrigator off when it has reached the end of the wire rope. Great for increased water efficiency. Note that a separate control is needed to turn the pump off.

Bolt On Hose Reel: This enables 100 metres of irrigation hose to be rolled up and stored on the irrigator.

11m Boom Extension: This kit is designed to be retro-fitted to a 7 metre Standard irrigator to convert it to an 11 metre boom. This is an extension kit so the irrigator boom can simply be converted back to a 7 metre unit if required.

Other Accessories: Scintex can supply effluent nozzles and sumpmaster cam so the irrigator can be set up to irrigate effluent. There is also the option of twin front wheels for increased stability and to allow the irrigator to straddle a furrow. The steel cable can be extended up to 300m on request. Please inquire for pricing and availability on these options.

Irrigator Hose Layout

Hose

When choosing a hose for your walking irrigator, we recommend and supply heavy duty, abrasion resistant ribbed layflat irrigator hose. Lay flat is recommended over poly pipe as poly easily kinks. If this happens, the kinked pipe will need to be cut and rejoined. When towing your layflat, use a skid to prevent tangles.

Water Supply

The ideal location for the supply hydrant is in the middle of the irrigator run
