Smart
Valve
Smart Valve® is a patented sensor-transducer
valve based on a unique polymer material developed after
many years of scientific research.
The Smart Valve® is unique
product. Completely different from all other plant watering
devices available in the market today, it delivers water
to plants on trays or in planters, only when required by
plants.
Incorporated into a standard container
(planter, trough, tray, etc), Smart Valve® can increase the interval between
watering and maintenance visits to months. The plant's transpiration
properties and the condition of the soil, determine how much
water is required. Smart Valve® when needed delivers
water automatically.
No supply of electricity is required
for the Smart Valve®
watering system, which renders time switch and watering computers
redundant. These devices typically switch on and off watering
systems regardless of the plants' need as they are in no
way linked to the plants' own transpiration cycles but are
instead based on some arbitrary time base.
Such devices may, therefore, initiate a flow of water when
the soil is already waterlogged or prevent delivery of water
even if the soil is dry. Incorporation of an electronic water
sensor into a time switch controlled system is expensive
and cumbersome.
In contrast the cycle of the Smart
Valve® follows the
normal pattern of plant transpiration. These properties make
the Smart Valve® a practical alternative to conventional
watering methods for both interior and exterior applications.
