Post 6:20 AM – For the balance of the irrigation cycle flow
is monitored by the Flow-Clik without exceeding the maxi-
mum and the total irrigation schedule is completed.
The Flow-Clik will continue to shut the system off during
automatic operation of valve 3 until the lateral line break is
repaired.
High Flow Scenario 2 – Mainline Ruptures
If a mainline ruptures, the Flow-Clik would identify a “high
flow” condition approximately 20 seconds after the first
valve is activated based upon the irrigation schedule and
the master valve would be shut down. Flow would continue
to be monitored every 10 minutes and after a sustained 20
second “high flow” condition, the system would be shut
off. Each time the system is deactivated by the Flow-Clik
the System Status Indicator will show a steady red light.
This will occur until the mainline pipe is repaired.
In both of the above scenarios, the “high flow” shut down
capability of the Flow-Clik sensor would eliminate the water
waste and associated damage to the site that would be
caused by the breaks in the irrigation system. In the lateral
break scenario, the Flow-Clik halts irrigation of the effected
valve while continuing to allow the controller to irrigate the
rest of the zones throughout the system.
