Irrigation

The plastic piping systems FERSIL in unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) for conveyance of water for irrigation, have strong resistance when submitted to high pressures and they follow the product specifications as defined in the standard NF-T 54-086.

FERSIL sprinkler system made of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), includes white smooth pipes and green pre-assembled fittings and can be used for irrigation on crops requiring large quantities of water, such as cereals, tobacco, beet, and cashew. This irrigation piping system allows a saving of manual labour, energy and water, compared with traditional irrigation systems. The sprinklers irrigation systems, when controlled used, are very effective in reducing the effects of frosting in winter. This is a very robust system, with a long service life, high UV resistance and has a very good watertightness system at high and low pressures. The jointing method by pressure lock is an easy way to assembly and disassembly, which permits the adjustment of the irrigation network according to the type of crop.

The drip irrigation FERSIL systems are made of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) pipes with self-compensating button drippers, for tertiary drip irrigation lines. These systems are very flexible and easy to handle and install. They are very resistant to chemical elements (fertilizers) and have good organoleptic properties. These pipes can be use at a service pressure up to 3 bar for conveyance of cold water (up to 20ºC) for drip irrigation. When the water temperature rises above 20ºC, we can use derating factor of 2% for each ºC which exceeds 20 º C, or consult our technical department.

Range of PVC-U pipes for boreholes used in underground water extraction. They present as main advantages an excellent mechanical strength, with strong resistance whene submitted to impact and mechanization in installation process.

Polyethylene pipes for agricultural irrigation and other similar raw water, intended for tertiary branches. These tubes are characterized by their good flexibility, ease of installation and handling. They resist most chemical agents (fertilizers) well. They are not suitable for conveying drinking water, nor for buried installations not concreted. They are produced with recycled or reprocessed materials and only the dimensional control.

Garden hoses in flexible PVC with plastic fittings, which allow versatile solutions and with different degrees of demand:

• DUPLEX: Hoses with Double Reinforcement Technology (TDR), prepared for the most demanding and intensive uses.
• DESIGN: Hoses for the most diverse applications and frequent use, gardening, food and industrial.
• ECOLÓGICA: Economic and ecological hoses for the most diverse applications, gardening, household, agricultural and construction.

Hoses in flexible PVC for the most various applications, from food, to industrial use and gardening.

Ibotec introduces the Double Reinforcement Technology (TDR) in Duplex range. This last generation technology, also named anti twist system, consists in an overlap of two polyester yarn stitches that, as can be seen in the pictures, avoids the torsion and the folds that obstruct the use and the recoiling of the garden-hoses. The flow of water remains constant and this allows the use of the hose with higher pressure, obtaining greater resistance to constant use and, therefore, more durability of the garden-hoses.
