Introduction

An Irrigation sprinkler is a device used to irrigate agricultural crops, lawns, landscapes. Golf
courses, and other areas. They are also used for cooling. Sprinkler irrigation is a method of
applying irrigation water which is like natural rainfall Water is distributed through a system
of pipes usually by pumping. It is then sprayed into the air through sprinklers so that it breaks
up into small water drops which fall so the round. The pump valves, distribution pipes, and
sprinklers are generally designed to apply water as uniformly as possible.

Most irrigation sprinklers are used as part of a sprinkler system, consisting of various
plumbing parts, pump unit piping and control equipment. This sprinkler system was
programmed to to drench unsuspecting sleepers at random times during the night. Local
businessmen soon copied this system to drive homeless people away from public sidewalks
adjacent to their businesses.

In 2017, it was reported that use of common garden hoses in combination with spray nozzles
may generate aerosols containing droplets smaller than 10 am, which can be inhaled by
nearby people. Water stagnating in a bose between unes, especially when warmed by the sun,
can host the growth and interaction of Legionella and free-living amochae (FLA) as biofilms
on the inner surface of the hose, Clinical cases of Legionnaires disease or Pontiac fever have
been found to be associated with inhalation of garden hose acrosols containing Legionella s
bacteria. The report provides measured microbial densities resulting from controlled hose
conditions to quantify the human health risks. The densities of Legionella spp. identified in
two types of hoses were found to be like those reported during legionella's outbreaks from
other causes It is proposed that the risk could be mitigated by draining hoses after use.
Aim of the project

Our project aims to give a better innovation to sprinkler system used in irrigation and to
provide a Re controller which can provide a sitting work to farmers Sprinklers that spray in a
fixed pattem are generally called sprays or spray heads. Sprays are not usually designed to
operate at pressures, due to misting problems that may develop. Higher pressure sprinklers
that themselves move in a circle are driven by a ball drive, gear drive, or impact mechanism
(impact sprinklers). These can be designed to rotate in a full or partial circle.

Rain guns are like impact sprinkler, except that they generally operate at very high pressures
of 40 to 130 lbf/in2 (275 to 900 kPa) and flows of 50 to 1200 US gal/min (3 to 76 L/s),
usually with nozzle diameters in the range of 0.5 to 1.9 inches (10 to 50 mm). In addition to
irrigation, guns are used for industrial applications such as dust suppression and logging.

Many irrigation sprinklers are buried in the ground along with their supporting plumbing.
although above ground and moving sprinklers are also common Most irrigation sprinklers
operate through electric and hydraulic technology and are grouped together in zones that can
be collectively turned on and off by actuating a solenoid-controlled valve.

Methodology

Sprinkler irrigation is a method of applying irrigation water which is like natural rainfall
Water is distributed through a system of pipes usually by pumping It is then sprayed into the
air through sprinklers so that it breaks up into small water drops which fall to the ground. The
pump supply system, sprinklers and operating conditions must be designed to enable a
uniform application of water.

Sprinkler irrigation is suited for most row, field and tree crops and water can be sprayed over
or under the crop canopy. However, large sprinklers are not recommended for irrigation of
delicate crops such lettuce because the large water drops produced by the sprinklers may
damage the crop.

Sprinkler irrigation is adaptable to any farmable slope, whether uniform or undulating. The
lateral pipes supplying water to the sprinklers should always be laid out along the land
contour whenever possible. This will minimize the pressure changes at the sprinklers and
provide a uniform irrigation.
Suitable soils

Sprinklers are best suited to sandy soils with high infiltration rates although they are
adaptable to most soils. The average application rate from the sprinklers (in mm/hour) is
always chosen to be less than the basic infiltration rate of the soil (see Annex 2) so that
surface ponding and runoff can be avoided. Sprinklers are not suitable for soils which easily
form a crust. If sprinkler irrigation is the only method available, then light fine sprays should
be used. The larger sprinklers producing larger water droplets are to be avoided.

5.1.4 Suitable irrigation water

A good clean supply of water, free of suspended sediments, is required to avoid problems of
sprinkler nozzle blockage and spoiling the crop by coating it with sediment.

5.2 Sprinkler System Layout

A typical sprinkler irrigation system consists of the following components:

Materials

1) Fibre Base: Spray Heads, Jets & Foggers are used to maintain humidity or
temperature control in greenhouse, shade house. Spray Heads, Jets & Foggers are
manufactured from good quality virgin raw material, easy to install, reliable
performance are some of the common features of our fogger and misters. It can be
supplied with Leakage Prevention Device (LPD) for pulsed operation and to prevent
low head drainage. Ideal for plant propagation, recommended for climate control in
Greenhouse/Shade house. Suitable for crops which require maintaining microclimate
in the canopy area.

Photo of model from above

The components of portable sprinkler system are shown through fig 3. A sprinkler system
usually consists of the following components (1) A pump unit (b) Tubing’s- main/submains
and laterals (iii) Couplers (iv) Sprinkler head (v) Other accessories such as valves, bends,
plugs and risers.

2) Pumping Unit: Sprinkler irrigation systems distribute water by spraying it over the
fields. The water is pumped under pressure to the fields. The pressure forces the water
through sprinklers or through perforations or nozzles in pipelines and then forms a
spray. A high speed centrifugal or turbine pump can be used for operating sprinkler
irrigation for individual fields. Centrifugal pump is used when the distance from the
pump inlet to the water surface is less than eight meters. For pumping water from
deep wells or more than eight meters, a turbine pump is suggested. The driving unit
may be either an electric motor or an internal combustion engine.
(ii) Tubings: Mains/submains and laterals: The tubing’s consist of mainline, submanins
and laterals. Main line conveys water from the source and distributes it to the submains.
The submains convey water to the laterals which in turn supply water to the sprinklers.
Aluminium or PVC pipes are generally used for portable systems, while steel pipes are
usually used for centre-pivot laterals. Asbestos, cement, PVC, and wrapped steel are
usually used for buried laterals and main lines.

(iii) Couplers: Couplers are used for connecting two pipes and uncoupling quickly and
easily. Essentially a coupler should provide (a) a reuse and flexible connection (b) not
leak at the joint (c) be simple and easy to couple and uncouple (d) be light, non-corrosive,
durable. (iv) Sprinkler Head: Sprinkler head distribute water uniformly over the field
without runoff or excessive loss due to deep percolation. Different types of sprinklers are
available. They are either rotating or fixed type. The rotating type can be adapted for a
wide range of application rates and spacing. They are effective with pressure of about 10
to 70 m head at the sprinkler. Pressures ranging from 16 to 40 m head are considered the
most practical for most farmers. Fig.4 Sprinkler head Fixed head sprinklers are commonly
used to irrigate small lawns and gardens. Perforated lateral lines are sometimes used as
sprinklers. They require less pressure than rotating sprinklers. They release more water
per unit area than rotating sprinklers. Hence fixed head sprinklers are adaptable for soils
with high intake rate. 2

3) Fittings and accessories: The following are some of the important fittings and
accessories used in sprinkler system. (a) Water meters: It is used to measure the
volume of water delivered. This is necessary to operate the system to give the
required quantity of water. (b) Flange, couplings, and nipple used for proper
connection to the pump, suction, and delivery.
 12V Battery:

Battery photo

An automotive battery is a rechargeable battery that supplies electrical current to a motor

vehicle. Its main purpose is to feed the starter, which starts the engine. Once the engine is
running, power for the car's electrical systems is supplied by the alternator. Typically,
starting discharges less than three per cent of the battery capacity. SLI (Starting. Lighting
and Ignition) batteries are designed to release a high burst of current and then be quickly.

recharged. They are not designed for deep discharge, and a full discharge can reduce the
battery's lifespan.

As well as starting the engine an S.1 battery supplies the extra power necessary when the
vehicle's electrical requirements exceed the supply from the charging system. It is also a
stabilizer, evening out potentially damaging voltage spikes While the engine is running.
most of the power is provided by the alternator, which includes a voltage regulator to
keep the output between 13.5 and 14.5 V. Modern SLI batteries are lead-acid type, using
six series-connected cells to provide a nominal 12-volt system (in most passenger
vehicles and light trucks), or twelve cells for a 24-volt system in heavy trucks or earth-
moving equipment.
15) Remote Controller:

RF Module Transmitter & Receiver

The RF module, as the name suggests, operates at Radio Frequency The corresponding
frequency range varies between 30 kHz & 300 GHz. In this RF system, the digital data is
represented as variations in the amplitude of carrier wave. This kind of modulation is
known as Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK)

Transmission through RF is better than IR (infrared) because of many reasons. Firstly,

signals through RF can travel through larger distances making it suitable for long range
applications. Also, while IR mostly operates in line-of-sight mode, RF signals can travel
even when there is an obstruction between transmitter & receiver. Next, RF transmission
is stronger and more reliable than IR transmission RF communication uses a specific
frequency unlike IR signals which are affected by other IR emitting sources.

This RF module comprises of an RF Transmitter and an RF Receiver. The

transmitter/receiver (Tx/Rx) pair operates at a frequency of 434 MHz An RF transmitter
receives serial data and transmits it wirelessly through RF through its antenna connected
at pin4. The transmission occurs at the rate of 1Kbps-10Kbps. The transmitted data is
received by an RF receiver operating at the same frequency as that of the transmitter.
DC Motor

A DC motor is any of a class of rotary electrical machines that converts direct current
electrical energy into mechanical energy. The most common types rely on the forces
produced by magnetic fields. Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal
mechanism, either electromechanical or electronic, to periodically change the direction of
current flow in part of the motor.

DC motors were the first type widely used since they could be powered from existing
direct cament lighting power distribution systems. A DC motor's speed can be controlled
over a wide range, using either a variable supply voltage or by changing the strength of
current in its field windings Small DC motors are used in tools, toys, and appliances The
universal motor can operate on direct current hat is a lightweight motor used for portable
power tools and appliances Larger DC motors are used in propulsion of electric vehicles,
elevator and hoists, or in drives for steel rolling mills. The advent of power electronics
has made replacement of DC motors with AC motors possible in many applications.
 2.2 Method

SPRINKLER IRRIGATION

Introduction

In the sprinkler method of irrigation, water is sprayed into the air and allowed to fall on
the ground surface somewhat resembling rainfall .The spray is developed by the flow of
water under pressure through small orifices or nozzles. The pressure is usually obtained
by pumping with careful selection of nozzle sizes, operating pressure and sprinkler
spacing the amount of irrigation water required to refill the crop root zone can be applied
nearly uniform at the rate to suit the infiltration rate of soil.

Advantages of sprinkler

 Imigation Elimination of the channels for conveyatice, therefore no conveyance

loss Suitable to all types of sod except heavy clay Suitable for imigating crops
where the plant population per unit area is very high.

 It is most suitable for oil seeds and other cereal and vegetable crops Water saving
Closer control of water application convenient for giving light and frequent
irrigation and higher water application efficiency Increase in yield Mobility of
system.

 May also be used for undulating area Saves land as no hunds etc. are required
Influences greater conducive micro-climate Areas located at a higher elevation
than the source can be irrigated.
  Possibility of using soluble fertilizers and chemicals Less problem of clogging of
sprinkler nozzles due to sediment laden water

Crop response to sprinkler the trials conducted in different parts of the country revealed
water saving due to sprinkler system varies from 16 to 70 % over the traditional method
with yield increase from 3 to 57% in different crops and agro climatic conditions (Table
1)

General classification of different types of sprinkler systems Sprinkler systems are

classified into the following two major types based on the anangement for spraying
irrigation water 1. Rotating head or revolving sprinkler system 2. Perforated pipe system

1) Rotating head: small size nozzles are placed on riser pipes fixed at uniform intervals
along the length of the lateral pipe and the lateral pipes are usually laid on the ground
surface They may also be Rotating head mounted on posts above the crop height and
rotated through 900 to imigate a rectangular strip. In rotating type sprinklers, the most
common device to rotate the sprinkler heads is with a small hammer activated by the
thrust of water striking against a vane connected to it.

Fig 1 Example of a few rotating type of sprinkler irrigation systems 2) Perforated pipe
system This method consists of drilled holes or nozzles along their length through which
water is sprayed under pressure. This system is usually designed for relatively low
pressure (1 kecm2 the application rate ranges from 1.25 to 5 cm per hour for various
pressure and spacing

Based on the portability, sprinkler systems are classified into the following types: (i)
Portable system: A portable system has portable main lines, laterals, and pumping plant
(ii) Semi portable system: A semi portable system is like a portable system except that
the location of water source and pumping plant is fixed (m) Semi permanent system: A
semi-permanent system has portable lateral lines, permanent main lines and sub mains
and a stationery water source and pumping plant. (iv) Solid set system: A solid set system
has enough laterals to eliminate their movement. The laterals are positions in the field
early in the crop season and remain for the season. (v) Permanent system. A fully
permanent system consists of permanently laid mains, sub mains and laterals and a
stationery water source and pumping plant.

Components of sprinkler irrigation system. The components of portable sprinkler system

are shown through fig 3. A sprinkler system usually consists of the following components
(1) A pump unit (1) Tubing’s- main submains and laterals (iii) Couplers (iv) Sprinkler
head (v) Other accessories such as valves, bends, plugs and risers.

(3) Component of a portable sprinkler irrigation system

(i) Pumping Unit: Sprinkler irrigation systems distribute water by spraying it over the
fields The water is pumped under pressure to the fields. The pressure forces the water
through sprinklers or through perforations or nozzles in pipelines and then forms a spray.
A high speed centrifugal or turbine pump can be used for operating sprinkler irrigation for
individual fields Centrifugal pump is used when the distance from the pump inlet to the
water surface is less than eight meters. For pumping water from deep wells or more than
eight meters, a turbine pump is suggested. The driving unit may be either an electric
motor or an internal combustion engine,

(ii)Tubing’s: Mains/submains and laterals. The tubing’s consist of mainline, submanins

and laterals Main line conveys water from the source and distributes it to the submains.
The submains convey water to the laterals which in turn supply water to the sprinklers.
Aluminium er PVC pipes are generally used for portable systems, while steel pipes are
usually used for cemer-pivot laterals. Asbestos, cement, PVC, and wrapped steel are
usually used for buried laterals and main lines.
 (iii) Couplers: Couplers are used for connecting two pipes and uncoupling quickly and
easily Essentially a coupler should provide tai a reuse and flexible connection (b) not leak
at the joint (e) be simple and easy to couple and uncouple (d) be light, non-corrosive,
durable (iv) Sprinkler Head Sprinkler head distribute water uniformly over the field
without runoff or excessive loss due to deep percolation Different types of sprinklers are
available. They are cither rotating or fixed type. The rotating type can be adapted for a
wide range of application rates and spacing. They are effective with pressure of about 10
to 70 m head at the sprinkler Pressures ranging from 16 to 40 m head are considered the
most practical for most farmers Fig4 Sprinkler head.

Fixed head sprinklers are commonly used to imigate small lawns and gardens. Perforated
lateral lines are sometimes used as sprinklers. They require less pressure than rotating
sprinklers They release more water per unit area than rotating sprinklers. Hence fixed
head sprinklers are adaptable for soils with high intake rate.

General rules for sprinkler system design

Main should be laid up and down hill Lateral should be laid across the slope or nearly on
the contour For multiple lateral operation, lateral pipe sizes should not be more than two
dometer Water supply source should be nearest to the centre of the area Layout should
facilitate and minimize lateral movement during the season Booster pump should be
considered where small portion of field would require high pressure at the pump Layout
should be modified to apply different rates and amounts of water where soils are greatly
different in the design area

Layout of sprinkler irrigation system selecting the most appropriate sprinkler systems.
While selecting a sprinkler system, the most important physical parameters to be
considered are: 1. The crop or crops to be cultivated. 2. The shape and size (acres) of the
field. 3. The topography of the field. 4. The amount of time and labour required to operate
the system.

Selecting sprinkler system capacity, A sprinkler system must be designed to apply water
uniformly without runoff or erosion. The application rate of the sprinkler system must be
matched to the infiltration rate of the most restrictive soil in the field. If the application
rate exceeds the soil intake rate, the water will run off the field or relocate within the field
resulting in over and under watered areas.

The sprinkler system capacity is the flow rate needed to adequately irrigate an area and is
expressed in litres per minute per acre. The system capacity depends upon on the Peak
crop water requirements during the growing season, effective crop rooting depth; texture
and infiltration rate of the soil, the available water holding capacity of the soil. pumping
capacity of the well or wells (if wells are the water source), Constraints in application of
sprinkler irrigation (1) Uneven water distribution due to high winds (ii) Evaporation loss
when operating under high temperatures (ii) Highly impermeable soils are not suitable
(iv) Initial cost is high (v) Proper design (vi) Lack of Package of practices (vii) Lack of
awareness (viii) Lack of social concern to save natural resources (ix) High water pressure

Maintenance General principles regarding the maintenance of the pipes and fittings and
sprinkler beads are given below.

1. Pipes and fittings the pipes and fittings require virtually maintenance, but attention
must be given to the following procedures: (a) Occasionally clean any dirt or sand out of
the groove in the coupler in which the rubber sealing ring fits Any accumulation of dirt or
sand will affect the performance of the nabber sealing ring (h) Keep all nuts and bolts
tight. (c) Do not lay pipes on new damp concrete or on piles of fertilizer. Do not lay
fertilizer sacks on the pipe. 2. Sprinkler heads the sprinkler heads should be given the
following attention: (a) When moving the sprinkler lines, make sure that the sprinklers are
not damaged or pushed into the soil. (b) Do not apply oil, grease, or any lubricant to the
sprinklers. They are water lubricated and using oil, grease or any other lubricant may stop
them from working. (e) Sprinklers usually have a sealed bearing and at the bottom of the
bearing there are washers. Usually, it is the washers that wear and not the more expensive
metal parts.

Storage The following points are to be observed while storing the sprinkler equipment
during the off season: (a) Remove the sprinklers and store in a cool, dry place (b) Remove
the rubber sealing rings from the couplers and fittings and store them in a cool, dark place
(c) The pipes can be stored outdoors in which case they should be placed in racks with
one end higher than the other. Do not store pipes along with fertilizer. (d) Disconnect the
suction and delivery pipework from the pump and pour in a small quantity of medium
grade oil. Rotate the pump for a few minutes. Blank the suction and delivery branches.
This will prevent the pump from rusting Grease the shaft. (e) Protect the electric motor
from the ingress of dust, dampness, and rodents.

Leakage from coupler or fittings the scaling rings in the couplers and fittings are usually
designed to drain the water from the pipes when the pressure is turned off. This ensures
that the pipes are automatically emptied and ready to be moved. With full pressure in the
system the couplers and fittings will be effectively leak-free. If, however, there is a
leakage, check the following: (a) There is no accumulation of dirt or sand in the groove in
the coupler in which the sealing ring fits. Clean out any dirt or sand and refit the sealing
ring. (b) The end of the pipe going inside the coupler is smooth, clean, and not distorted.
(e) In the case of fittings such as bends, tees and reducers ensure that the fitting has been
properly connected into the coupler.
Wheels

When choosing the wheels for your project you should consider the type of motors you
intend to use. The motors speed and torque (turning force) will play an important role in the
final operation of your robot. A small motor with a low torque may not be able to drive a
large wheel, but a small motor with a gearbox to change the velocity and torque of the output
may be able to drive what an un-geared motor cannot. Also consider the speed of the motor
and the circumference of your wheel so that your robot moves at the speed you desire.
Consider using a motor with an encoder if you want to measure how far or fast your robot is
travelling.
 Pump

A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, by mechanical
action. Pumps can be classified into three major groups according to the method they use to
move the fluid: direct lift, displacement, and gravity pumps.

Pumps operate by some mechanism (typically reciprocating or rotary) and consume energy to
perform mechanical work by moving the fluid Pumps operate via many energy sources,
including manual operation, electricity, engines, s wind power, come in many sizes, from
microscopic for use in medical applications to large industrial pumps.

Mechanical pumps serve in a wide range of applications such as pumping water from wells,
aquarium filtering, pond filtering and aeration, in the car industry for water cooling and fuel
injection, in the energy industry for pumping oil and gasser for perating cooling towers. In
the medical industry, pumps are used for biocheruical processes in developing and
manufacturing medicine, and as artificial replacements for body parts, in particular the
artificial heart and penile prosthesis.
Tank

A water tank is a container for storing water. Water tanks are used to provide storage of water
for use in many applications, drinking water, irrigation agriculture, fire suppression,
agricultural farming, both for plants and livestock, chemical manufacturing, food preparation
as well as many other uses. Water tank parameters include the general design of the tank, and
choice of construction materials, linings.
Arduino

Arduino board designs use a variety of microprocessors and controllers. The boards are
equipped with sets of digital and analog input/output (I/0) pins that may be interfaced to
various expansion boards or Bread bounds (shields) and other circuits The boards feature sal
communications interfaces, including Universal Serial Bis (USB) on some models stoch are
also used for loading programs from personal computers. The microcomrollers opcally
programmed using a dialect of features from the programming languages C and C In addition
to using traditional compiler toolchains, the Aubino project provides in egestol development
environment (DE) based on the Processing gepry.
The Arduino project started in 2003 as a program for students at the Interaction Design ute
Ivrea in Ivrea, Italy [2] aiming to provide the-cost and easy way for novices and professionals
to create devices that interact with their environment using sensory sed actuators Common
examples of such devices intended for beginner hobbyists include simple gebots, thermostats,
and motion detectors.

The name Arduino comes from a bar in forea, haly, where some of the founders of the project
used to meet. The har was named after Antuin of bea, why was the grave of the March of
Ivrea and King of Italy from 1002 to 1014.

Arduino is open-source hardware. The hardware reference designs are distributed under a
Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 2.5 license and are available on the Anlauso
white. Layout and production files for some versions of the hardware are alsas available. The
source code for the IDE is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2.[1]
Nevertheless, an official Bill of Materials of Arduino boards has never been released by
Arduino staff.

Although the hardware and software designs are freely available under copyleft haenses, the
developers have requested the name Arduino to be exclusive to the official product and not
be used for derived works without permission. The official policy document on use of the
Arduino name emphasizes that the project is open to incorporating work by others into the
official product [2] Several Arduino-compatible products commercially released have
avoided the project name by using various names ending in-duino 131.

Most Arduino boards consist of an Atmel 8-bit AVR microcontroller (ATmega8.

ATmega168, ATmega328, ATmega1280, ATmega2560) with varying amounts of flash
memory, pins, and features. The 32-bit Arduino uno, based on the Atmel SAMINSE was
introduced in 201212) The boards use single or double-row pins or female headers that
facilitate connections for programming and incorporation into other circuits. These may
connect with add-on modules termed shields Multiple and possibly stacked shields may be
individually addressable via an PC serial bus. Most boards include a 5 V. linear regulator and
16 MHz crystal oscillator or

Conclusion

In this previous chapter we had highlighted the observations and results obtained upon
implementing our project. In this chapter we will be explaining about the conclusions donke
and the prospects for our project. And we conclude our project by saying that it is mat
understand the need of irrigation support to our India. That we are one of the leading
asuntries in crops cultivation and overall progress

4.1 Summary

The summary to understand is simple and quite understanding that in this project we have try
a hard luck and work to give the at best support to our imigation facility. By Providing RC
circuit and portable bot having Sprinkler attached on it. It has a moving driven ability with
steering arrangement tire. The Sprinkler Bot is an innovation in irrigation field, and it can be
GPS (Global Positioning System.) Since it is remote control, it can be used a very vast
distance coverage which would ultimately give relax to the workers

4.2 Future scope

We have used the simpler RC bot to make the department understand our project on irrigation
support Until quite recently, India enjoyed abundant water sources. But population grit and
overexploitation has led to a simation where the demand for water is excecling supply. Our
project can be improvised by adding a Webs caper which can predict the weather and water
the plants/crops accordingly. If rain is forecasted, less water in let out for the plants. Also, a
GSM module can be included so that the user can control the system via smart phone A water
meter can be installed to estimate the amount of water used for irrigation and thus giving a
cost estimation A solenoid valve can be used for varying the volume of water flow.
Funbenuore, Wireless semons can also be used.
