Setup and Installation
The beday Solar Automatic Drip Irrigation System is designed for quick and easy setup without special tools. Follow these steps for optimal performance:
- Prepare Tubing: Cut the 50ft tube into appropriate lengths based on the distance between your water source, the main unit, and each plant.
- Connect Watering Spikes: Attach the T-joints to the main tube and then connect individual watering spikes to the T-joints. Insert the watering spikes into the soil near each plant.
- Install Anti-Siphon Component: Connect the anti-siphon part to the outlet pipe side of the main unit. Ensure the anti-siphon part is positioned above the water level in your reservoir to prevent backflow and over-watering.
- Connect Filter: Attach the filter to the end of the tube that will be submerged in your water reservoir. Place the filter end into your water source (e.g., a bucket or container).
- Install Solar Panel: Install the solar panel in a location that receives ample direct sunlight. It can be staked into the ground or mounted. Connect the solar panel cable to the main watering system unit.
- Connect Soil Moisture Sensor (Optional for Humidity Mode): If using Humidity Mode, connect the soil moisture sensor to the main unit and insert the probe into the soil of a representative plant.
