we offer service contracts for all our services
From Agricultural to Golf Courses and Sports turf
New systems
Any make or size of pump including borehole, vertical and centrifugal, our Control Systems are built to your specification and requirements, Using variable speed drives to maintain line pressure, with high/low and flow protection, mobile phone control and fault logging.
Retro Fitted Systems
Any size or type of pump system can be retro fitted with our technology bringing your system up to date and user friendly all with the benefits of a new system.
Irrigation Controlled by your mobile phone
One Shot or Pressurised Control
By using the latest inverter technology, pump speed can be regulated and controlled in order to maintain a selected working pressure. Our systems can be installed on new systems or retro fitted into your existing irrigation system. Pumping from a borehole, river or lake, our systems can utilise any size, make or type of pump to make your system as efficient, reliable, cost effective and user friendly as possible.
Benefits include:
- No over pressurisation of equipment
- Extended pump and pipework life
- Greatly reduced power consumption
- Low maintenance
- Greatly reduced running costs
- Start/stop from anywhere
- Mobile phone text alerts and notifications
One Shot Irrigation
S T Controls has developed the One Shot Irrigation system, this method of irrigation allows operators to start or stop the irrigation system via a simple text or phone call from a mobile phone. The irrigation lines fill slowly under no pressure reducing wear and tear on the system. Once the irrigation lines are full, it then brings the system up to the desired pressure. The system recognises when the irrigation cycle is complete and shuts down, awaiting the next text or call to start. If any fault occurs during a cycle (e.g a burst pipe) the system will stop and text the users allowing the fault to be resolved. This system is especially useful when there are known leaks in the system, as there is no unnecessary starting and stopping which reduces costs and wear and tear on the system as a whole.
Pressurised Control
Some users prefer to have the system pressurised. This system can also be started and stopped using mobile technology and will maintain a selected operating pressure. The difference being that when the irrigation cycle is complete the system then goes to sleep, when the pressure drops the system then wakes up and maintains the pressure again.
Tank or reservoir filling
Need to fill a tank or reservoir from your borehole or large pump? You can run your pipe network open ended by running at a low fixed speed and keeping your pump curves under control, saving power and pipework stress.
Capital allowance information
Under the Annual Investment Allowances (AIA) Scheme, you can offset an ‘enhanced’ 100% capital allowance against tax, for expenditure on equipment in the first tax year up to a maximum of £1,000,000. Normal capital allowances on plant and machinery are just 18% a year on a reducing balance basis. This Scheme boosts cash flow and shortens the payback period.
