3. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your Biling Solar Drip Irrigation System:

1. Prepare the Water Pipe: Cut the 15m water pipe to your desired lengths to reach each plant. Tip: Soaking the pipe ends in hot water for a few seconds can soften them, making connection easier.
2. Install Anti-siphon Device: Connect the anti-siphon device to the outlet pipe of the control unit. This prevents water from continuously draining from your reservoir.
3. Connect Pipes and Drippers: Use the Tee connectors to branch the main water pipe to individual plants. Attach a dripper to the end of each branch, positioning it near the base of the plant.
4. Connect Water Level Sensor: Plug the water level sensor cable into the designated port on the control unit.
5. Place Water Level Sensor and Filter: Submerge the water level sensor and filter into your water reservoir (e.g., a bucket or tank). Ensure the filter is fully immersed to prevent debris from entering the pump.
6. Position Solar Panel: Mount the solar panel in a location that receives maximum direct sunlight throughout the day. Use the provided ground stake or other suitable mounting method. Connect the solar panel cable to the control unit.
7. Mount Control Unit: Secure the control unit in a convenient location, either by hanging it on a wall using the provided nails/screws or placing it on a stable surface.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your irrigation system:

• Clean Filter: Periodically check and clean the water filter to prevent clogging and ensure consistent water flow.
• Inspect Tubing and Connections: Regularly inspect all tubing and connections for leaks or blockages. Ensure all drippers are securely in place and delivering water as intended.
• Monitor Water Source: Ensure your water reservoir always has sufficient water. The water level sensor will alert you if the water level is low.
• Solar Panel Cleaning: Keep the solar panel clean from dust, dirt, and debris to maximize charging efficiency.
• Winterization (if applicable): In freezing climates, disconnect and drain the system before winter to prevent damage from ice expansion. Store components in a dry, protected area.
