Net Irrigate, a manufacturer of wireless agricultural irrigation monitoring (WAIM) technology, announces WireRat 4.0, an update to its WireRat technology that offers pivot owners new benefits like the ability to self-test the system and increased battery performance.

Since its release in 2011, WireRat technology has become the agriculture industry’s bestselling alarm solution for copper theft on center pivot irrigation systems and other agriculture equipment.

WireRat technology offers each grower the ability to better protect the valuable copper wire on their pivot irrigation systems and other equipment by immediately sending alerts to his phone when a span cable is cut. The technology works seamlessly with all brands of center pivots and requires no external power. New for the WireRat 4.0 is the ability to self-test by simulating span cable cuts without causing any damage to your equipment. Every month the system auto-tests the copper wire, ensuring the alarm is not compromised during the off season.

WireRat 4.0 also includes increased battery performance, with a battery pack design that can last up to seven years with average pivot usage.
