Zimmatic Lateral Irrigation

Why a Zimmatic lateral move system?

A Zimmatic lateral move system from Hall Irrigation lets you combine maximum irrigation coverage with a uniform watering pattern over your entire field. This combination helps ensure a better yield out of every acre for a higher return on your investment in production inputs.

• Ideal for conversion from flood irrigation. They are a proven way to get more benefit from less water and to reduce pumping costs.
• Reduce the yield penalties associated with water logging of crops when using flood irrigation.
• Manage your irrigation in sync with the weather – reduce the risks of flood damage associated with storms after a flood application.
• Reduce your labour costs – no more starting siphon tubes!

Hose Fed

• Supplied with water through a large diameter hose attached to a pressurised mainline
• Pivot and/or towing options for use on adjacent fields for increased coverage area
• Uses 2 wheel or 4 wheel cart (depending on field size) with 102 mm, 153 mm and 203 mm hose (that’s 4, 6 or 8 inch if your prefer!)

Ditch Fed

• Can use existing ditch at field edge or one in the centre
• Depending on ditch type, water is supplied through a floating intake or a floating self cleaning filter screen
• Only available as a 4 wheel

Cart & Power Options

• Two and four wheel carts are available, depending on system requirements.
• Power can be supplied by an onboard diesel and generator set (plus onboard pump for ditch fed systems) or by commercial power delivered through a heavy duty, mining type cable. (Please Note :: Cable powered systems in hose fed only).

Guidance Systems
