PIVOT IRRIGATION SYSTEM
Sky International Traders is offering Center Pivot System in very competitive price. WESTERN-CP is a system designed to adapt to a variety of weather, crop and field conditions, all the while providing maximum performance as it relates to water efficiency and increased crop yields, year after year.
The joint venture of HSI & WESTERN (Alkhorayef) is also part of the continuation of introducing advanced technology as per the requirement of Pakistan’s Agriculture. WESTERN Pivot (Linear & Center) is one of the world-renowned names in the Pivot industry which is providing this system to many countries in the World & now in Pakistan.
Pivot systems have drops hanging from a U-shaped pipe attached at the top of the pipe with sprinkler heads that are positioned a few feet (at most) above the crop, thus limiting evaporative losses. Drops can also be used with drag hoses or bubblers that deposit the water directly on the ground between crops. Crops are often planted in a circle to conform to the center pivot. This type of system is known as LEPA (Low Energy Precision Application).
It can be configured with a variety of span lengths, overhang combinations, and multiple sprinkler packages. In addition, and depending on the requirement of the field, you have the option of an all-galvanized system or a galvanized structure with Poly-Line pipe components.
APPLICATIONS
WESTERN-CP spans and towers have three different ground clearances ranging from 1.86m to 4.52m, and are specifically designed to match differing crop requirements. This machine is suitable for a variety of crops like sugarcane, sugar beet, potato, sunflower, maize, mustard, fodder etc.
Available Ground Clearance
The distance from the lowest point at the span to the ground is called ground clearance. WESTERN-CP spans have three different ground clearances to match different heights of the planted crops :
💧 Low profile: 1.9m, (for shorter crops)
💧 Standard profile: 2.9m (Most field crops)
💧 High profile: 4.52m (Sugarcane)
Spans & Overhang
WESTERN-CP pivots utilize the “Bow String” span design, with a maximum length of 62m (203.5ft) between towers. It offers different span lengths in order to adapt the lengths of the machine to the dimensions of the field. Spans with the pipe size of 5” and 6-5/8” are available in the following lengths options: 38.2m (125.5ft), 44.2m (145 ft), 50.1m (164.5ft), 56.1m (184 ft) & 62.0m (203.5ft) In case pipe size of 8-5/8”, maximum span length is 50.1m (164.5ft). Span pipes are available in three different diameters; 5”, 6-5/8” & 8-5/8” with pipe thickness ranging from 2.8mm to 3mm.
