Irrigation Zone Loop
Category: infrastructure
An isolated circuit of sprinkler heads controlled by a single automated electromagnetic valve.
Water lines lack the pressure to pop up every sprinkler head on a property simultaneously. Planners break the property into distinct zones based on pressure availability and hydraulic flow capacity, running individual loops sequentially from the master manifold controller.
Common Examples
- We isolated the sunny south lawn onto its own irrigation zone loop, separating it from the shady turf sections behind the building.
- A faulty solenoid coil inside the master valve box prevented the third irrigation zone loop from initializing during the automated night run.
