1 DESCRIPTION OF BASIC FUNCTIONS

The Agrónic 2500 is designed for automating irrigation on small and medium-sized farms

(maximum 30 irrigation sectors) where there is a need to open/close sector and master valves,

fertilizer control and ﬁlters.

The farm may have a pressurized water intake or need

a drive pump (electric or motor pump). There may be

an irrigation water meter.

The head can have 12 Vdc power supply (with solar

panel and battery, or battery only) or at 220 Vac (mains

or generator set).

The valves can be 12 Vdc, 24 Vac or latch and can be

close to the head and controlled by microtube or cable,

or at distances of up to 2 km connected to AgroBee-L

radio modules.

In the head, there can be fertilization with a hydraulic

pump injector, electric dosing machines or a venturis

system.

Reading of all types of sensors (analog, digital and

meters) connected to Agrónic and also remotely with

AgroBee-L radio modules.

The Agrónic 2500 has an internet connection, with

mobile telephony or WiFi, to connect to the VEGGA

platform or to the Agrónic APP application and

remotely manage the Agrónic.

For remote management, you can also connect to the

Agrónic PC Windows program. The connection can be

with direct USB to the computer, when it is next to the

unit, by radio modem, for medium distances, or by

Internet, with WiFi or mobile telephony.

All the features of the Agrónic are expanded in the

Plus version. If the Basic version does not meet your

requirements, see the Plus version.

To go from the Basic to the Plus version, just activate

an option from the unit.

User Manual | Agrónic 2500

Control up to 30 sectors using 50 irrigation programs.

Each program can activate 1 to 4 irrigation sectors si-

multaneously.

There are three ways to start a program:

Schedule start: at a specific time choosing the days

of the week or repeat the irrigation every few days

(frequency of days).

Days of the week Every 3 days

Sequential start: when another program has finished.

It is used to irrigate several sector groups one aer

another. The first program in the sequence must be

schedule start or conditional.

P6 sequential of P5 and P7 sequential of P6, etc.

Conditional start: when a determining factor is

activated.

The determining factor is related to any type of sensor

and can activate the program, for example, when

the temperature rises, when a buoy is deactivated

or when a flow rate drops below a certain level. An

active schedule and a safe schedule can be configured

between starts.

Conditional start due to frost

Once the program has started, there is an option to

repeat the irrigation every certain amount of time.

At the start, the amount of irrigation can be modified

using the determining factors. For example, increase

irrigation by % if there is a lot of radiation, decrease ir-

rigation by % if there is a lot of moisture in the soil, etc.

Irrigation units can be in time, hh:mm, mm:ss or

hh:mm/ha; or in volume, m3 or m3/ha (m3 per hectare).

A record is made of the irrigation time and volume for

each sector and in total.

When the program is active, irrigation can be stopped,

permanently or temporarily, using a determining

factor. For example, stopping when it is very windy,

stopping while the well level is low, stopping when the

flow in a sector is too high (broken pipe), etc.

2 FEATURES

The Agrónic 2500 is a controller for controlling irrigation, fertilization, pumping and ﬁlter cleaning.

It detects malfunctions and creates a chronological record of the events. Fully conﬁgurable, with

multiple possibilities for use, communication and expansion.

IRRIGATION

Description of basic functions

PUMPING

It has 2 general irrigation outputs, or pumps.

One of the pumps can be a motor pump or generator

set. Each sector is assigned with the pumps associated

to it.

The pumps are activated together with the sector.

There are time delays to separate the pump from the

sector activation, during activation as well as stop, to

avoid water hammer.

Configurable from 0 to 4 fertilizers in separate tanks.

Separates pre- and post-irrigation values in each

program.

Fertilization units in time (hh:mm or mm:ss) or in

volume (L or L/ha).

Configured to use mixers, with pre-mixing and inter-

mittent or continuous mixing.

Fertilizers can be applied in three dierent ways:

in series: one type of fertilizer aer another from a

single injector

proportional distribution of each pulse made by the

meter is recorded into the totals and history according

to the planned flows in sectors being fertilized at the

same time. Parallel fertilization.

FERTILIZATION

Description of basic functions

User Manual | Agrónic 2500

FILTER CLEANING

Configured for 0 to 9 filters, with selectable cleaning

times. Programmable pause between filters.

Washing sequence may be started by the pressure dif-

ferential and/or according to the time or volume of the

water circulation.

Whether or not the irrigation sectors and fertilizers are

stopped while the filters are being cleaned is configu-

rable.

Control over malfunctions due to continuous cleanings.

Configurable general filter output.

DETERMINING FACTORS

The unit has a total or 30 completely configurable

determining factors to trigger actions that take into

account certain determining factors or values from

digital or analog sensors and meters.

There is a wide variety of actions possible, such as the

ability to make definitive, temporary or determined

stops that are applied to specific programs or all of

them, start and/or stop irrigation, send a warning,

adjust irrigation or fertilizer units when starting an ir-

rigation program according to an instantaneous value

from a sensor or the value recorded from a previous

irrigation, etc. Each determining factor can also be

configured to create a malfunction or send an SMS

message and an SMS message to another machine.

To give a few examples, it can be used to terminate ir-

rigation due to a broken pipe, postpone irrigation due

to the lack of water level or excessive wind, modify the

volume of each irrigation as to the value of the water

content in the soil or the solar radiation the plant

received since its previous irrigation or the evapotrans-

piration, terminate irrigation if a certain amount of

rain has fallen since the previous irrigation, or send a

warning to the owner for an attempted the, etc.

EXTERNAL MODULES

SDI12 UNITS

With the AgroBee-L Link option, the unit links with

AgroBee-L radio modules, expanding the possibilities

and the use of new features.

The dierent modules in the range activate valves and

other irrigation elements, as well as read digital and

analog sensors and meters.

The SDI-12 is a communications bus that enables

the units that use this bus to communicate with the

Agrónic. Currently, soil moisture sensors from the

The AgroBee-L radio modules work with LoRa radio

modulation, which operates in the free bands of 868

MHz / 433 MHz / 915 MHz, obtaining coverage radii of

up to 2500 m between two points (depending on the

orography).

Meter Group, AquaCheck and Decagon brands can be

connected.

READINGS
