IrriFrance Center Pivot Irrigation Systems & Solutions

	Center pivot irrigation significantly improves productivity: it is a self-propelled system that allows a large irrigation area to be covered, saving time and reducing labor and water costs. IRRIFRANCE offers a wide selection of irrigation pivots, all adapted to different plots and crops. All IRRIFRANCE products meet NF and EEC standards.
With their VXP-type central structure, IRRIFRANCE pivots offer exceptional robustness. Anchored to a concrete base, the structure perfectly absorbs the forces generated by the terrain's topography and the machine's rotation. IRRIFRANCE chose this design for its quality and sturdiness: The V-shaped diagonals distribute the loads evenly over the entire length of the span. All parts of the structure (tubes, diagonals, crossbeams, beam stabilizers, axles) are hot-dip galvanized. The new tie rod design, with forged ends, ensures very easy and strong assembly.
	The "Polychem" polyethylene jacketing technique was chosen for IRRIFRANCE brand pivots. This cutting-edge method, implemented using high-performance industrial equipment, secures and extends the lifespan of the pivots. Total protection against corrosion and wear of the pivot tubes. Improved flow coefficient. Insensitivity to aggressive waters. Adapted to modern techniques (chemigation, fertigation). Guarantee of longevity of the metal structure and hydraulic performance. In order to differentiate itself and offer increasingly innovative products, IRRIFRANCE has developed new equipment to make farmers' daily lives easier: a retractable overhang, a flexible pivot…
Strengths A suitable solution for your plot problems. Save time with automatic realignment. Options The PIVOFLEX coupling automatically realigns the system and continues to function like a standard pivot. The PIVOFLEX is compatible with any existing VXP pivot. The 28m VXP retractable cantilever is compatible with all models in the Irrifrance VX and VXP pivot range.

Control Systems

The control cabinets allow the operation of the pivots and ramps. They are IP65 rated and have 300mA differential protection.

Type S mechanical cabinet:

Cyclic metering unit in percentage of speed
Water on/off switch
Forward/reverse/auto switch
Safety relay

The L-ELEC type electromechanical cabinet:

This cabinet is compatible with all IRRIFRANCE pivots. Its advantages are:

Water dispenser in mm

Graphic VNC connection kit for graphic cabinet:

This option allows remote control of your graphic cabinet: With the same functions as the PIVOCONTROL graphic system, namely:

View your cabinet's work screen on PC, tablet or smartphone by launching software on your smartphone allowing you to remotely control your pivot.
This process works with an internet modem on the pivot side requiring an "M to M" (machine to machine) SIM card and an internet connection on the PC, tablet or smartphone side.
In the case of multiple pivots, a specific kit must be added per cabinet, enabling pivot-by-pivot control. To benefit from this option, both options must be purchased.
The application is available and free on iOS and Android platforms.

Solar energy is converted into electricity via photovoltaic panels. The energy produced is stored in batteries.

The advantages of the IRRIFRANCE solar pivot:

Patented installation on the central unit that allows adjustment of the desired tilt and eliminates loss due to shaded areas
Three days of autonomy thanks to the battery bank
An economical solution
A solution guaranteeing energy independence
An eco-friendly solution

The entire structure of the "RE-USE" pivots is protected by 4.5mm thick high-density polyethylene (HDPE) tubing. This 100% virgin HDPE is extruded internally and then lined within the tubes using the patented POLYCHEM technique. This technique provides:

Complete protection against wastewater and heavy water
Total protection against chemicals or fertilizers
An improved coefficient of friction
A 15-year warranty on the tubes
The protection also applies to span couplings.

The fittings are made of brass for better corrosion resistance and are equipped with an O-ring to ensure a seal between the PE and the steel tube.

		Movable pivots: Whether on four wheels or skis, this technique allows the pivot to be moved lengthwise. This system enables the irrigation of two or more plots. The movement is carried out using a tractor.
The Pivoflex: PIVOFLEX technology allows for an increased irrigated area. The PIVOFLEX coupling enables the irrigation system to bypass obstacles (buildings, poles, etc.). This solution can be mounted on any tower, which then becomes a pivot point. PIVOFLEX can cover an additional 160° in either direction.
		The retractable overhang: This technology optimizes irrigated areas by acting as a pivot point that can avoid obstacles (wood, posts, buildings, etc.). Deployment is automatic and safe. The cantilever pivots 90°. A mechanical lock secures it in the deployed or retracted position. This technology is only available for a length of 28m.

The encoder kit: This kit allows you to measure the actual position of the pivot with an accuracy of 0.1° in rotation.	The anti-theft system: Irrifrance has developed and implemented a system for protecting electrical cables to prevent vandalism.	The fertigation kit: This kit allows for the injection of a fertilizer or treatment solution at the inlet of the pivot or boom. Its concentration is regulated using a metering pump. Tank capacity: 500L, 1000L, 2000L, 3000L Pump capacity: 500L/h to 620L/h

Sprinklers:

Optimal nozzle placement is important to ensure efficient and uniform irrigation. The choice of nozzle depends on the hydraulic characteristics of the system (flow rate/pressure), the type of soil, and the climatic conditions at the plot level.
