Irriland SILVER SERIES

Overview

The Irriland SILVER SERIES represents a sophisticated range of turbine drive hard hose irrigators specifically engineered for small to medium-sized farming operations across diverse agricultural landscapes. Manufactured in Italy by Irriland, these automatic hard hose reel irrigators are designed to handle pipe diameters ranging from 50 to 110 mm with hose lengths extending from 100 to 400 metres. The SILVER SERIES encompasses models 14, 16, 17, 19, and 19L, each calibrated to deliver reliable irrigation performance whilst maintaining compact dimensions that facilitate easy transport across varied terrain and field conditions.

What distinguishes the SILVER SERIES from conventional hard hose irrigators is its integration of advanced water turbine technology with a parcialised drive system that delivers exceptional efficiency and control. The hot galvanised frame and drum construction ensures long-term durability in demanding agricultural environments, whilst the oil-filled multispeed gearbox with PTO shaft provides precise speed management throughout the irrigation cycle. The combination of automatic brake functionality, electronic speed indication, and an independent bypass speed compensator creates a self-regulating irrigation system that requires minimal operator intervention, making it particularly valuable for operations seeking to optimise labour deployment whilst maintaining consistent irrigation performance across multiple crop types.

Key Features & Benefits

• Parcialised Water Turbine Drive: Maximises hydraulic efficiency by utilising available water pressure to power the retrieval mechanism, eliminating the need for external power sources and reducing operational costs whilst ensuring consistent performance across varying pressure conditions.
• Hot Galvanised Frame and Drum: Provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard painted finishes, extending service life significantly in humid and chemically aggressive agricultural environments whilst reducing maintenance requirements and protecting long-term investment value.
• Oil-Filled Multispeed Gearbox with PTO Shaft: Delivers precise torque management and speed control through sealed lubrication system that maintains optimal operating temperatures, reducing wear on critical drive components and enabling reliable performance throughout extended irrigation cycles.
• Electronic Speed Indicator with Automatic Brake: Provides real-time monitoring of retrieval speed whilst automatically engaging braking mechanisms to prevent overrun, ensuring accurate irrigation application rates and eliminating the risk of equipment damage from uncontrolled drum rotation.
• Independent Bypass Speed Compensator: Automatically adjusts retrieval speed in response to pressure fluctuations and terrain variations, maintaining consistent travel rates that deliver uniform water distribution even when operating across undulating fields or with variable water supply conditions.
• Hoseguide System Without End Screw: Simplifies hose management by eliminating complex screw mechanisms that require frequent adjustment and maintenance, providing smooth, even hose layering during retrieval whilst reducing the risk of hose damage from pinching or misalignment.
• Automatic Cart Lifting and Stop System: Enhances operational efficiency by automatically lifting the sprinkler cart at the end of the irrigation cycle and stopping drum rotation, preventing equipment damage and eliminating the need for operator presence during cycle completion.
• Turntable Frame with Adjustable Drawhook: Facilitates precise positioning and reduces setup time by allowing 360-degree rotation combined with height-adjustable towing connection, enabling efficient manoeuvring in confined spaces and adaptation to various tractor configurations.
• Adjustable Height Chassis with Front Stabiliser Legs: Provides exceptional stability on uneven terrain through height compensation capabilities and lateral support legs that prevent lateral movement during operation, ensuring safe operation on slopes and rough field surfaces.
• Complete Sprinkler Cart with Adjustable Track and Height: Accommodates diverse row spacing requirements and crop heights through infinitely adjustable wheel track and sprinkler positioning, enabling precise irrigation delivery across multiple crop types without additional equipment modifications.

Ideal Applications

• Small to Medium Agricultural Holdings: Perfectly sized for farms requiring efficient irrigation coverage across 10 to 50 hectares, where compact dimensions enable easy manoeuvring between fields whilst maintaining professional-grade performance and reliability.
• Mixed Cropping Operations: Adaptable sprinkler cart configuration with adjustable track width and height accommodates diverse crop types from low-growing vegetables to tall crops like maize, providing versatile irrigation capability without requiring multiple specialised machines.
• Undulating and Irregular Terrain: Independent bypass speed compensator and automatic brake system maintain consistent irrigation application rates across sloped fields and uneven ground where conventional irrigators struggle to deliver uniform water distribution.
• Orchards and Permanent Crop Installations: Turntable frame design and compact footprint facilitate navigation through established tree rows and vineyard layouts, whilst adjustable sprinkler height prevents canopy damage during operation.
• Contract Irrigation Services: Robust hot galvanised construction and reliable turbine drive system deliver the durability required for frequent transport and intensive use across multiple client properties, reducing downtime and maintenance costs in commercial applications.
• Water-Efficient Farming Systems: Parcialised turbine technology and precise speed control optimise water application efficiency, making the SILVER SERIES particularly suitable for operations managing limited water resources or implementing sustainable irrigation practices under regulatory constraints.
