Professionals in property operations and irrigation management face a delicate balancing act. On one hand, they must ensure that lawns, parks, and golf courses remain visually appealing and functional. On the other hand, they must conserve water resources and minimize environmental impact. This challenge becomes even more critical in regions with water scarcity or strict regulations.
In the face of modern challenges such as water scarcity and stringent regulatory requirements, Badger Meter offers a comprehensive suite of solutions. These solutions are designed to enhance irrigation accuracy, closely monitor water usage, improve efficiency and optimize cost management. Our wide range of irrigation products helps specifiers in property operations to comply with water regulatory and legislative guidelines. Through advanced technologies and telemetry, we enable remote monitoring and real-time adjustments, empowering informed decision-making.
The Dynasonics RS-900w Polymer Ultrasonic flow sensor stands out in our product lineup, specifically tailored for modern irrigation control applications. By using ultrasonic technology, the RS-900w sensor can more accurately measure flow over a wider range than traditional mechanical impeller meters commonly used in irrigation. Its unique design features with no moving parts and fully sealed electronics make it an ideal choice for the demanding conditions of property operations. The flow sensor’s robust construction ensures it can withstand the elements and deliver consistent performance over long periods of time.
Unlike traditional flow meters that often require a certain length of straight pipe before and after the meter to ensure accurate measurements, the RS-900w sensor breaks this mold with zero straight run requirements. It can be installed immediately upstream from a master control valve, even in tight spaces like a single valve box. This flexibility simplifies installation and saves valuable real estate in landscape designs.
Its ability to accurately measure flow across a wide range sets the RS-900w meter apart from other flow sensors. This versatility is essential for mixed-zone irrigation systems that experience variable flows. Combined with the meter’s advanced features, the RS-900w meter provides a unique solution that addresses the specific needs of specifiers in the irrigation market.
The crucial approach to water management is to be forward-thinking, embracing the latest technologies and telemetry to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving industry. These technological advancements are not merely about keeping pace with the competition; they are about leading the charge toward smarter, more sustainable water usage. With tools like the RS-900w, applications are at the forefront of innovation, providing specifiers with the data and control they need to optimize their irrigation practices.
