Irriland COMPAKTA SERIES

Overview

The Irriland COMPAKTA SERIES represents a premium line of turbine-driven hard hose irrigators engineered for medium to large-scale agricultural operations. Manufactured in Italy by Irriland, this series encompasses models 19, 21, 23S, 23L, 26, and 28, designed to accommodate hose diameters ranging from 75 mm to 140 mm (2.95 to 5.51 inches) with operational lengths extending from 200 to 650 metres (656 to 2,133 feet). These robust irrigation systems utilise water turbine technology to deliver consistent, reliable performance across extensive field coverage, making them an essential tool for intensive crop production where irrigation efficiency directly impacts yield and profitability.

What distinguishes the COMPAKTA SERIES is its exceptional combination of structural strength, compact design, and operational reliability achieved through hot galvanised construction and precision engineering. The parcialized water turbine drive system connects to an oil-filled multispeed gearbox, providing smooth power transmission and extended component life. Advanced features including an electronic speed indicator, automatic brake system, and speed compensator on independent bypass ensure precise control over irrigation application rates. The hoseguide system with no end screw, coupled with automatic cart lifting and rewinding stop functions, streamlines field operations whilst reducing operator workload during repositioning and retrieval cycles.

Key Features & Benefits

• Hot Galvanised Frame and Drum: Provides exceptional corrosion resistance and extended equipment lifespan even in harsh agricultural environments with constant water exposure and varying weather conditions.
• Parcialized Water Turbine Drive System: Eliminates the need for external power sources by harnessing irrigation water pressure to drive the retrieval mechanism, reducing operational costs and improving field mobility.
• Oil-Filled Multispeed Gearbox with PTO Shaft: Ensures smooth, reliable power transmission with multiple speed options to match varying field conditions and irrigation requirements whilst minimising maintenance demands.
• Electronic Speed Indicator: Enables precise monitoring and adjustment of retrieval speed for optimal water application uniformity and accurate irrigation scheduling across different crop types and growth stages.
• Automatic Brake and Stop System: Provides safe, controlled operation with automatic stopping at the rewinding end, preventing equipment damage and ensuring consistent positioning without constant operator supervision.
• Hoseguide System with No End Screw: Facilitates even hose winding without manual adjustment, reducing wear on the hose and eliminating alignment issues that can compromise equipment reliability.
• Turntable Frame Design: Allows 360-degree rotation for flexible positioning and efficient field coverage patterns, maximising irrigation efficiency whilst minimising equipment repositioning time.
• Speed Compensator on Independent Bypass: Maintains consistent retrieval speeds despite variations in water pressure or field slope, ensuring uniform water application across the entire irrigation pass.
• Adjustable Height Chassis with Front Legs: Provides stable positioning on uneven terrain whilst allowing customisation of hose height to accommodate varying crop canopies and field topography.
• Full Hydraulic Option (FH Version): Includes hydraulically-operated turntable, front jack, and rear anchoring legs for streamlined setup and repositioning, significantly reducing manual labour requirements during field operations.

Ideal Applications

• Large-Scale Field Crop Production: Perfectly suited for irrigating extensive wheat, corn, soybean, and cotton fields where coverage area and operational efficiency are paramount to profitability.
• Forage and Pasture Management: Provides reliable irrigation for hay, alfalfa, and grazing pastures across rolling terrain, supporting consistent forage quality and extended growing seasons.
• Vegetable Production Operations: Delivers uniform water distribution for large commercial vegetable farms growing potatoes, onions, carrots, and other row crops requiring precise moisture management.
• Orchard and Vineyard Under-Canopy Irrigation: With adjustable cart height capabilities, effectively irrigates beneath mature tree canopies and vine structures without damaging delicate foliage or fruit.
• Municipal and Sports Turf Maintenance: Ideal for irrigating golf courses, sports fields, and large municipal green spaces where reliable, consistent coverage is essential for turf quality.
• Land Reclamation and Establishment Projects: Robust construction and reliable operation make these systems well-suited for challenging irrigation scenarios during land development and crop establishment phases.
