1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Simplicity in irrigation control.
Control of 96 blocks through 50 irrigation programs with 15 daily starts up. Easy and intuitive programming allows the
user to avoid schedule problems such as valve overlaps. Automatic filters cleaning and pumps starter function are
available, as well as the Watering Factor to modify the duration of all the irrigation programs.
Precision in dosing.
Fertigation control by means of 48 programs, which can be linked to the watering programs. The PIQ algorithm
developed by ITC, can control the addition of 6 different products proportionally to water flow and simultaneously
according to EC and pH set points.

Activation mode of a mixer
Manual (MAN): It only activates if it is activated in the irrigation program. It´s not linked to the fertirrigation program.
Previous fertirrigation (PRE): if the fertirrigation program activates the pump linked to the mixer, in the pre irrigation
time the mixers will be activated the time programmed. If the time of the mixer is higher than the pre irrigation time,
mixer working time will overlap with the fertirrigation time.
Continuous (CON): if the fertirrigation program activates the dosing pump linked to the mixer, the mixer will be activated
in pre irrigation time and irrigation time.
Discontinuous (DIS): if the fertirrigation program activates the dosing pump linked to the mixer, the mixer will be
activated in the pre irrigation and irrigation time in a discontinuous working time. It will depend on the time (minutes),
and frequency (hh:mm) programmed.
NOTE: In the post irrigation time, all the mixers are off.

Change Values by pressing +/-, press <> to scroll on the Menu, and validate the Configuration of the 2 Outputs by
pressing ENT.
Rated Flow:
Introduce the Rated Flow at 50 Hz of the dosing pump.
Leave “--“ when the Output is V.
Maximum flow in %
%<100: Introduce a percentage lower than 100 to limit the 4-20mA Output to a value lower than 20mA, for example
due to an over sized pump or when an acid too concentrated is dosed.
%>100: Only for dosing pumps with frequency variator, when this is programmed to work at frequency higher than
50Hz. For maximum Frequency of 60 Hz the maximum Adjustment will be 120%.
Type of output:
A: Analogue independent Output: for Electromagnetic Pumps (Dositec) and Pumps with Electric Motor and Frequency
Variator (Dostec).
V: Analogue Master Output for a Variator in multihead Pump with Servos: to control the Output that regulates the
speed of the Motor of a multihead Pump (MF-Multifertic) provided with Servos for the independent Adjustment of each
Head.
Only one V-type Output can be configured, and there should be an Output configured as S.
S: Analogue Output for Servos in multihead Pump, with Adjustment of the Motor by Frequency Variator (V Output)

OUTPUTS:
Delay Time Configuration in the System for Channels A and B, corresponding to the Time passed between two
consecutive Orders from the Controller (see System Start-Up).
A fixed Delay Time can be defined (Q Test=0) or proportionally inverse to the Flow.
Q Test=0: it allows establishing a Flow as Reference for defining the Delay Time (Tdelay) changeable by the Flow. If Q
Test =0 Delay Time is constant.
A Tdelay: 15s Delay Time in Channel A
B Tdelay: 15s Delay Time in Channel B
Example:
For 8” Pipe, Flow 100m3/h, water Speed is approximately 1m/s. If the distance between the Injection and Sensor
Point is 10m, the Delay Time of the System will be 10 seconds.
The Sensor will have a Reaction Time (approximately 10 seconds for the pH Sensor), which should be added to the
Delay Time of the System. Therefore, we should set a Tdelay = 20 seconds.
If there is a Filter between the Injection and Sensor Point, the Calculation of 10metersx1m/s = 10 seconds is no more
valid.
Therefore, TDelay changes when the Flow of the System change. To optimize the Adjustment, the TDelay can be
associated with a certain Flow (Q Test), so Controller 3000 changes TDelay according to Water Flow. TDelay is
limited from 5 to 120 seconds.
How to find Tdelay
1.-Start the irrigation make sure that there is no dosage of products.
2.-Wait until the readings of the sensors are stable.
3.-Start manually a dosing pump, for example fertilizer. In the same moment start a chronometer.
4.-After some time the reading of the sensor will start increasing up until its stable. In this moment the chronometer will stop,
and Tdelay is found.
