At the Commodity Classic in San Antonio, Texas earlier this month, SureFire Ag introduced the 2017 Marksman Flow Controlled Irrigation Injection Systems. Marksman provides producers and retailers a line-up of new features not common in most fertigation and chemigation systems.
- Flow Measurement and Control – All Marksman models utilize SureFire E-Mag flow meter to measure and in turn control flow to the set application rate (GPH).
- Remote Connectivity & Text Message Notification – Checking fertigation/chemigation is as easy as checking Twitter and Facebook. Receive text message notification of pump start/stop, start or stop pump, monitor and trouble shoot system without traveling to the field.
- Record Keeping – Marksman keeps a complete record of every application. Every 10 minutes it logs an entry in the database which includes field number, date, time, flow rate set point, actual flow rate, pressure and batch total.
- Shut Down Alarms – Marksman Shutdown Alarms stop the injection system and irrigation system (if connected) when the when system is off rate or exceeds low or high pressure set point.
- Water Proportional Control – Change fertilizer/chemical rate in proportion with changes in water flow rate. Especially useful with corner swing-arm systems.
- Batch Mode – Inject set number of gallons, then turn off.
- Auto Run on Power Up – At power up, Marksman automatically starts pumping. Automatically resume injection after power shut down due to load control. Also use in drip irrigation to apply set batch size to each zone of a system.
