Water management

Water management in horticulture 

Many processes in the field of water management are also automated. Examples include purifying and disinfecting water, but also regulating the (different) water flows and the correct addition of fertilizers is crucial for effective cultivation. Click here to read more about the different types of water units, how they work and what their benefits are. On this page we take a closer look at the advanced solutions for creating a smart, automated water cycle in the greenhouse.

Thanks to our employees’ many years of experience in unit construction, our advanced workshop and the many customized water units that we have been able to design and supply in horticulture, we offer various smart irrigation water systems. The result is an optimal water flow of purified water, with the correct dosage of fertilizers and nutrients.

Types of automation in water treatment

Reverse osmosis systems

A reverse osmosis system removes solid particles from the water, such as salts, lime, viruses and bacteria. In our reverse osmosis systems, water flows under pressure, parallel to the membrane surface, with some water passing through the membrane.

Priva Vialux M line 

The Priva Vialux M-Line is an affordable solution for water disinfection using UV light, for treating both large and small quantities of water. The Priva Vialux M-Line is easy to maintain and we can easily adapt the modular system.  

Priva Vialux HD UV 

The Priva Vialux HD-UV was specially developed for the pre and post treatment of rainwater, surface water and drain water. It destroys all organisms, such as fungi, bacteria and viruses. This saves water, fertilizers and energy. 

Priva Vialux E-line 

The Priva Vialux E-Line can be used for the treatment of discharge water. The Vialux E-Line is a BZG-approved purification system, which means Dutch horticulture businesses who use this system can be sure they comply with water purification requirements.   

Types of automation in irrigation and fertilizer units

Customized units 

We also offer customized units for sprinkler systems, ebb and flow systems, drip systems, watering booms, roof sprinkler systems and disinfection systems. Ask your consultant about the possibilities. 

Priva Moisture Balance Module 

The Priva Moisture Balance Module is an optimal solution for starting irrigation when growing on substrate. The degree of irrigation is determined fully automatically based on three important factors: the amount of water that evaporates, the water consumption of the plant and the water content of the substrate.

Priva Root Optimizer 

With the Priva Root Optimizer, watering is optimized automatically according to the circumstances, the status of the crop and the type of substrate. All this entirely based on the needs of the plant.  

Automatic tank filler 

Dosing fertilizers correctly is time-consuming and requires accuracy to create a consistent recipe for your crop. An automatic tank filler takes this work off your hands and ensures accurate dosing every time. 

“UV disinfection is a sustainable way to disinfect water. UV-C light kills micro-organisms, such as bacteria, viruses and pathogens. This way, as a grower, you can continuously recirculate your irrigation water, and you don’t have to discharge drain water containing expensive fertilisers that pollute the environment.”
