Growers are about to gain smarter, simpler options for controlling and managing their irrigation pivots.

Valley Irrigation introduces the smartest center pivot control available today with the new Valley ICON series of smart panels, providing intuitive control for any center pivot irrigation machine.

“With our release of four new control panels, growers will see firsthand the ease of operation with a very simple interface that’s extremely intuitive,” said John Campbell, Valley Irrigation manager of technology advancement and adoption.

The ICON panels accommodate irrigators with varying needs. Whether buying a new pivot, upgrading an existing panel, changing from another brand of pivot, or switching from a different irrigation method, the advantage of operating an intuitive, full-color touch screen interface that can be adapted to today’s quick changing technology is key.

“The ICON panels have expanded connectivity on a smart relay board, so they are ready for future upgrades," Campbell said. “To bring that technology center stage, each panel comes equipped with AgSense ICON Link, so all four models are compatible with both AgSense and BaseStation3 telemetry technology. That makes it easy for growers to view data and control their pivots remotely, whether they’re expanding existing networks or just starting with remote monitoring and control.”
