Powerplants MT Series: Fertiliser Dosing Systems for Increasing Greenhouse Crop Production
The Powerplants MT Series Fertiliser Dosing Systems are designed to increase greenhouse crop production by providing high capacity, accurate water and fertiliser injection for vegetables and flowers, plus nurseries, based on desired EC and pH settings.
The Powerplants MT series fertiliser dosing systems are specifically designed to interface with the Priva range of greenhouse controllers (Priva Maximizer, Priva Vega and Priva Intégro) to control the most accurate levels.
Powerplants supplies the complete MT series fertiliser dosing system, requiring only minimal connections on site. This means your fertiliser dosing system can be installed and operating in minimum time, and your crops’ production can be increased in minimum time. And as systems are made to order, they are designed and constructed to best match your application.
The Powerplants MT series fertiliser dosing systems are proudly manufactured and supported by the team in our factory in Melbourne.
MT Fertiliser Dosing System Features
- High quality aluminium frame
- High grade mixing tank: - MT100, 150, 200 and 400: 340 litre food grade mixing tank - MT600 and MT800: 700 litre food grade mixing tank
- Constructed using locally available Australian standard pipe and fittings
- Tank level control using variable float valve
- Integrated Priva EC interface supplied as standard
- Dual temperature compensated EC sensors supplied as standard
- A and B fertiliser injection (recipe) using high capacity venturi injectors
- Optional multi recipe option adding the ability to control A2/B2, A3/B3 etc.
- Stock tank suction lines, filters and isolation valves supplied with each system
- High capacity Lowara stainless steel filling pump and stainless steel Lowara irrigation pump on the same frame
- Adjustable outlet pressure control using a modulating pressure sustaining valve
- Pressure gauge panel with 3 pressure gauges: fill pressure, discharge pressure and post filter pressure (required to establish when the filter needs cleaning)
- Switching panel with rotary auto/off/manual control switches
- Integrated Priva pH interface
- Dual high quality pH sensors supplied as standard
- Acid/Alkali injection using dedicated venturi injector
- Flow indicator on each venturi injector
- Optional chemical injection
- Bypass valve between filling and irrigation pumps
- Manual disc filter - other options available for filtration
On site connections required:
- Water Inlet and outlet
- Power
- Control
- Fertiliser stock solutions tanks
- Acid or alkali tank
- Chemical holding tank (where required)
BENEFITS OF OUR MIXERS
- High grade aluminium frame is durable even in harsh conditions
- Mixing tank guaranteed to resist commonly used greenhouse fertiliser solutions
- Because the system is constructed using locally available materials the system can be easily maintained and adapted. Parts are readily available in Australia
- Tank features variable inlet float valve for accurate tank level control
- High quality sensors for accurate EC and pH sensing. Second sensor option allows the control system to check one sensor against the other thereby preventing the possibility of crop damage due to poorly calibrated sensors
- Venturi fertiliser injection with integral A and B control provides flexibility in fertiliser solutions
- Venturi's also fail shut in case of irrigation pump failure which protects the system from fertiliser and/or acid/alkali overdose
- Venturi flow indicators provide a visual feedback of suction flows thereby allowing the user to ensure the stock tanks are emptying at the same rate
- Chemical injection option to allow for the automatic injection of chemicals into irrigation water
- The system includes a filling pump as standard matched to the irrigation pump. No extra pump is required for operation
- The irrigation pump provides sufficient capacity to inject fertiliser and provide the volume and flow required for irrigation
- Both pumps are stainless steel to ensure compatibility with fertilisers and chemicals
- Pressure sustaining valve ensures that any excess capacity is re-circulated back to the mixing tank. This protects the irrigation system from over-pressurisation due to blockage, valve jam etc.
- The system includes a suitable high quality irrigation disk filter as standard to protect irrigation drippers and/or micro-sprinklers
- Easy to use switching panel for manual control in case of emergency, etc.
- The system is supplied with complete set of manual over-rides as standard. This provides full manual control in case of controller failure
- We can also supply complete water recycling systems, including blending valves and water disinfection using Priva UV.
