The Dramm Corporation is partnering with CE-Line to provide in-line nutrient testing of irrigation water in North America.
CE-Line is a laboratory-quality nutrient analysis system that automatically samples water throughout the day. This in-line testing solution provides accurate data within an hour, eliminating the wait for test results from a remote laboratory. Sample results are securely stored in the cloud, with APIs available to connect to climate control and fertigation systems. This connectivity allows for automated optimization of nutrient levels in real-time.
The CE-Line system schedules testing of different sources throughout the day, measuring both macro and micronutrients. NH4, K, Na, Mg, Ca, Cl, NO3, SO4, HCO3, PO4, Fe, B, Zn, Mn, Mo, Cu can all be tested. CE-Line has automated the laboratory process of capillary electrophoresis to accurately measure these different nutrients. Each unit can take up to eight different samples per day, from multiple sources, using a supply of reagents and cleaning solutions.
Dramm will work as the North American partner for CE-Line, providing consultation, design services, installation support, replenishment supply and service for these systems.
Dramm offers complete irrigation and water management design through its DRAMMwater business unit.
