Valves

Description

Designed to Simplify Flood Irrigation

SAE Water Valves are built to remove the most time-consuming and disruptive part of flood irrigation: manually changing water. Instead of being tied to the field or waking up in the middle of the night to move water, farmers can automate valve changes and manage irrigation on their own schedule.

This turns irrigation into something that runs in the background instead of controlling the day.

How It Helps in the Field

Once installed, valves can be controlled through the SAE Water app from a phone or computer.

This allows farmers to:

• Open and close valves remotely

• Upload and run irrigation schedules automatically

• Focus on other tasks like crop health and equipment maintenance

Farmers consistently point to time savings and ease of use as the biggest benefits. Many also mention the quality-of-life improvement that comes from not having to leave the house late at night to change water.

Built to Work Alone or as a System

SAE Water Valves can be used as a standalone solution or integrated into a fully automated irrigation system.

When paired with Automated Headgates and Water Presence Sensors, valves become part of a system that manages water movement based on real conditions instead of manual timing. The system can send notifications, provide visibility into what is happening in the field, and help reduce water waste while improving consistency.

The valves use wireless communication connected through a regional gateway, allowing control from any internet-connected device. They also include manual override options, giving farmers flexibility and control in any situation.
