FLOW SENSORS FOR THE IRRIGATION INDUSTRY
A broken 1 1/2`` PVC pipe running at 50 psi will discharge over 10,000 gallons in 30 minutes or over 168,000 gallons running for 8 hours

A CST flow sensor connected to a smart controller can sense a broken pipe, stuck zone valve or run-over sprinkler head. The smart controller can close a master valve, stopping the water loss and notify you by email or text.

Save time, labor and money by installing a flow sensor on every irrigation job.

Flow sensor models and sizes to fit every sprinkler system and smart controller may be purchased through our distribution network. Call, text, email or fill out the form below with your questions about products, applications or technical assistance.

Creative Sensor Technology flow sensors have been engineered specifically for service in the harsh underground, often wet, electrically unstable environment of irrigation service. We detect flow with impeller technology because it is best suited for this application. Our impeller technology has proven to be practical, reliable, and cost effective. The impeller, the single moving part is self- cleaning, aids in troubleshooting and requires no more maintenance than other technologies with no moving parts. Like the solenoid operated diaphragm valve, that has been used for 75 years, the impeller sensor is still the best technology for irrigation service.

Overview

Natural resources on this Earth have been depleting for decades, but luckily public awareness has been growing. The populace is realizing that resources aren’t limitless, and a Green Movement has been born to try to reduce, recycle, and reuse these great resources. Water is our most precious natural resource, and the irrigation world is working to try and conserve it. Unfortunately, using water for irrigation landscapes is considered wasteful to those uneducated in the benefits of healthy turf and plant materials. Negative press is easy to maintain when we see sprinklers running in the rain, small geysers pouring water into the streets, or water pooling on the surface of a park from a stuck valve. To combat this negative image, irrigation systems must become more efficient and conserve water. Creative Sensor Technology is doing its part to making irrigation systems more efficient with smart flow sensors and flow processors.
