Drip Lines
IrriSmart offer 2 bespoke dripline solutions, The spacings and flow rates have been developed over may years in French vineyards although we can create bespoke to suit any location, climate, environment, planting or soil type.
-
UniWine AS – this system is designed for new vineyard and is installed below the surface, this reduces damage from insects and animals, also transpiration, and humidity therefore reducing disease risk.
-
UniWine RC – is specifically designed for established vineyards and can be laid on the ground or clipped to wire support to keep it away from damage.
-
Both system give 100% uniform aplication from the first emitter to the last. And with proper system design will give 100% uniform aplication of water and nutrients across the whole vineyard.

Dosatron
Water Driver Fertiliser Injectors
Dosatron technology is a passive volumetric dosing pump based on a water driven hydraulic motor piston pump activated only by pressure and flow of water without any electricity or any measuring device.
Such a pump is composed of two main elements: a passive water driven hydraulic piston and a dosing piston.
Advantages of the Dosatron pump
-
Non-electric
Unlike electric pumps, the Dosatron metering pump is activated only by pressure and flow of water.
-
Dosing accuracy
The high precision of the constant dosing of the hydro-motor pumps eliminates any risk of overdosing, saving the concentrated additive and contributing to the respect of the environment.
-
Proportional dosing and homogeneous solution
It has been designed to inject the precise dose of concentrated additive that is continuous, homogeneous and directly proportional to the volume of water entering the dosing pump, regardless of the variations in flow and pressure that may occur in the water system.
-
Low operating costs
Life cycle costs are very low due to its electric-free, servo-free design and easy maintenance.
The proportional dosing unit integrates 4 functions realized by mechanical construction.
-
Measuring: hydraulic volumetric motor for water flow,
-
Dosing: continuous proportional injection of liquid or soluble concentrate,
-
Regulating: proportionality controlled by the water flow,
-
Mixing: homogenisation integrated in the pump body.
