I am very proud of this brother, that's a cool setup, what of drip whereabout you can save loads of water and have more targeted watering. Well done and keep up the good works, big up Mukwana.
Professional installation done, good job..keep up. However, one observation noted: The common isolation valve (ball valve) for the pressure swith/gauge should be locked or at least handle to be removed to prevent accidental isolation of the safety device (pressure switch).
Good works Weis Engineering and a big thank you for sharing, a quick question what booster pump would you recommend for rainhose irrigation of a similar area?
You're welcome. A booster pump of about 0.75Kw, if you advise us on the elevations between water source point and highest point plus horizontal distance, we can estimate more realistic pump head, flow and power.
What kind of pump do you use. That seems like a lot of water flow for 1.6kw I've used many pumps petrol and electric and a 750w pump, so about half of what you showed is nowhere near close of the flow you've showed
Hello, We used a 2.2Kw pump motor with a pump with a maximum head of 60 meters and a maximum flow of 13m³/hr. You will need to consider pumping heads, pipe sizes and required pressure at the delivery point
Thank you for taking Time to reply. Am writing from Zambia, Lusaka. Am trying to put up similar set but can find such pumps available on local market. Are you able to supply
@@WeisEngineeringLtd Thank you so much for your response. I recently bought a 4kw pump inverter but i have not been able to get it working. What panel watage is needed for it to work
Well done, nice setup, I have two questions, so with this setup we use 2 pumps, one from the borehole to the tanks and the next from the tanks to the sprinkler. Meaning in the evening when there is no sun you can not water your garden yet that would be the best time to do so. Does this setup mean we can't use gravity from the tanks to the sprinkler? What if we raise the tank higher to increase water pressure?
3hp, rated flow is 10,000 litres per hour and rated head is 48 meters. The size of the land it can cover depends on the system water requirements, pressure required and operating hours
@@WeisEngineeringLtd hello at Weis. You are doing a great job. Thumps up forward ever and backwards never. I liked the solar equipment as it is in the video. Its such powerfull I liked it. My situation is that we intend to get the water from a very big big dam and irrigate a land of 10Ha. Am writing from Zim. Would you advise me on: Components to buy ie *No. Of panels, their type, and sizes interms of wattage. Model of inverters and its size, as well as the circuit breaker. *size, type of model pump suitable to abstract water from the dam. Well something like a Quotation
There are some considerations like well dynamic water level, well yield, gadern size, field layout and gradient to mention, we have a demo video on how field data can be collected and we up with an estimated proposal
Hey am interested. I am in Florida but I would want to put one in my village in kaberamaido. How much is the whole system? I have boys who can help you install it. Give me the cost or an estimate
We are glad to hear about your comment. 1. What's your planned water source, for underground water source, what's the yield and dynamic water level 2. What's the planned site location(for better estimates of solar radiation) We can share estimates via email or Whatsapp contact.
Im impressed, good stuff out there. May to add on that, i would take advantage of building structure to place the solar panels on top or make them like a canopy on top of water tanks to economize space and provide shade and safety.
@@WeisEngineeringLtd I wish you would give me a list of the "major components" of the this wonderful system and their brand names and identity codes in case I want your similar sizes and capacities.
Please I have a question. Can a shallow well be used to do irrigation? If yes what amount of water is needed to irrigate one acre of maize farm through sprinkler irrigation?
Yes, a shallow well can be used to irrigate however to a smaller scale depending on the irrigation method to be used, and planned crop types. You may need about 8,000 litres per day, however the actual water required will depend on climate, crop and soil factors. A hand dug well may give you about 1,000 litres a day.

We use solar panels without batteries, you can add batteries if you need to store energy
This is very informative and wise. Can you do across the broader in Kenya too? How many watts in total do the 50 panels produce? Thanks
