Beginner
2-Wire systems simplify wiring into one “circuit,” however that limits what we can know about the location of a fault. There’s no way to figure out where a fault is located from the controller alone if all connected devices are not allowed to operate. Troubleshooting from various locations is required, and the CMA-360B Milliamp Clamp Meter(opens in a new tab) will allow Irrigation Technicians to narrow in on the fault without breaking messy and expensive single-use splices.
Beginner
Armed with knowledge of electrical principles and a multimeter, Irrigation Professionals can efficiently diagnose wiring and electrical problems in any conventional multi-wire irrigation system. Understanding the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance allows technicians to use measurements to recognize which circuits and components are healthy, which are not—and why.
Beginner
Irrigators need to know the location of wires, valves, and faults. Locators are immense time-savers, but they can be mysterious in how they react in various situations. We’ll peel back the curtain on how Tempo locators work and how to take advantage of the principles of electromagnetism to understand what’s buried beneath your feet and lead you to exactly what you’re looking for.
Principiante
Los sistemas de dos cables simplifican el cableado en un solo circuito; sin embargo, esto limita la información sobre la ubicación de una falla. No es posible determinar la ubicación de una falla solo desde el controlador si no se permite el funcionamiento de todos los dispositivos conectados. Se requiere la resolución de problemas desde varias ubicaciones, y la pinza amperimétrica CMA-360B (se abre en una nueva pestaña) permitirá a los técnicos de riego localizar la falla con precisión sin tener que romper empalmes desechables, costosos y engorrosos.
Principiante
Con conocimientos de principios eléctricos y un multímetro, los profesionales del riego pueden diagnosticar eficazmente problemas eléctricos y de cableado en cualquier sistema de riego convencional multicable. Comprender la relación entre voltaje, corriente y resistencia permite a los técnicos usar mediciones para identificar qué circuitos y componentes funcionan correctamente y cuáles no, y por qué.
Principiante
Los irrigadores necesitan conocer la ubicación de cables, válvulas y fallas. Los localizadores ahorran muchísimo tiempo, pero su reacción en diversas situaciones puede resultar un misterio. Desvelaremos cómo funcionan los localizadores Tempo y cómo aprovechar los principios del electromagnetismo para comprender qué hay bajo sus pies y guiarle hacia exactamente lo que busca.
