1000 GPM Portable Media Filter
Renting a portable pump,
filter, and chemigation unit can reduce a grower's fixed costs for
row-crop drip irrigation. Approximately 32% of the cost of a typical
100-acre, drip-tape irrigated field is the pump, filtration, chemigation
and control valve units.
Rain for Rent™
has developed a portable, trailer-mounted unit specifically for treating
water for drip irrigation. Growers like to rent their water filtration
units because they do not want to build a permanent filtration unit on
leased ground. Renting conserves capital and provides the flexibility
growers need when crops or field locations are frequently changed.
Each unit delivers up to 1200 gpm of
filtered water. A dual chemigation unit featuring two Mazzei™
injectors can provide 0-75 gph and 0-10 gph simultaneous chemical
injection. A pressure regulating and sustaining valve controls system
pressure between 5-60 PSI. A typical system can irrigate three 35-acre
blocks of 80" bed spacing, 500 series Hi-Flow T-Tape (.45
gph/100ft.) and apply .52" gross water application per day.
Rain for Rent's engineering and field
personnel work closely with each grower to ensure that each system is
properly designed.
