Laser Spray-Jumbo, commonly called Rain Pipe / Rain Hose– The Next Generation Irrigation Innovation

Introduction

Introducing the Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe — a cutting-edge addition to the Laser Spray family of irrigation solutions. Designed with precision engineering and advanced polymer technology, this new model offers broader coverage, higher durability, and superior performance — making it an ideal solution.

About the Laser Spray (Rain Pipe / Rain Hose) Technology

Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe, also known as Rain Pipe or Rain Hose irrigation, is an advanced form of micro-irrigation that simulates natural rainfall. The hose is made from high-grade polyethylene and features laser-punched holes that release fine water droplets evenly across the field.

Unique Benefits of Spray Irrigation

Laser Spray (Rain Pipe / Rain Hose) irrigation is technically called Spray Irrigation and it substitutes traditional sprinklerirrigation. It stands out with many benefits:

• Supports Photosynthesis: Clean, healthy leaves are key to efficient photosynthesis. By preventing dust buildup on leaves, the Laser Spray (Rain Pipe) ensures that your plants absorb sunlight more effectively, enhancing growth and yield.
• Gentle on Crops: The Laser Spray (Rain Pipe / Rain Hose) disperses fine water droplets, ensuring that your delicate fruits and flowers aren’t damaged during irrigation. This gentle spray mimics natural drizzle, making it ideal for maintaining healthy crops.
• Boosts Soil Health and Germination: The Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe irrigation keeps the soil porous, which improves air circulation around the roots and enhances seed germination. By spreading water evenly across the soil surface, it also reduces the risk of waterlogging and seepage loss.
• Perfect for Sandy Soil: Sandy soils, notorious for their quick drainage, benefit immensely from the Laser Spray’s (Rain Pipe) thin water distribution on the soil. The water penetrates efficiently, keeping the soil moist without being wasted.
• Washes away Insects: Its rain like watering of the plant washes away the insects resulting in reduction crop protection spray of insecticides.
• Cooling the crop: It cools the crop canopy as well as the soil and thus saves the plants form heat stress.

What is the new Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe model?

Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe substitutes the Sprinkler Irrigation. Most of the farmers in India uses Quick Release Coupling (QRC) HDPE pipes and Sprinkler Nozzles. But they normally possess inadequate number of components required for their land. The practice is to invest in 25 numbers and 5 numbers of QRC pipes and Sprinkler nozzles respectively for 1 acre of land. These quantities are sufficient only for part of 1 acre land. So, they irrigate the part of the land required with the above pipes and nozzles, and then shift them to the other parts one by one and complete the irrigation of the whole area in several shifts. An acre of land with the above number of components will need roughly five shifts. This calls for a lot of labour and time.

The new Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe can be used to irrigate by shifting a single Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe over an area like the sprinkler described above. The advantages are:

• It is highly economical.
• Since just a single light weight pipe is to be shifted, it calls for minimal labour.
• It saves time.

Further, Laser Spray ( Rain Pipe / Rain Hose) has several advantages over Sprinkler:

FAQ

1. What is Laser Spray-Jumbo (Rain Pipe / Rain Hose)?

Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe is a model of Laser Spray family manufactured by Driptech India. It is of largest size ( 63 mm diameter) among the family. It is generally used as single pipe to irrigate a plot of land by shifting it like a sprinkler irrigation system is used.

Like all Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe ( commonly called Rain Pipe / Rain Hose), it has laser-punched holes to deliver uniform, rain-like irrigation and works under low pressure. But it gives much higher discharge than the other models.

2. How is Laser Spray-Jumbo different from regular Rain Pipe or Sprinkler irrigation?

Comparison with other Rain Pipes / Rain Hoses:

• It is made of larger diameter pipe (63 mm)
• It is highest discharge among the rain pipes.
• It has wide coverage/ wetting distance (7 mtr)
• It has long running length (100 meters)

Like Sprinkler Irrigation system, it is used for irrigating a part of the land and then shifted to other parts to complete the irrigation of the whole land in shifts. However, in this case only a single Laser Spray pipe is shifted unlike in case of sprinkler where the QRC HDPE pipes and sprinkler nozzles are shifted. Thus there is huge saving in drudgery, time and labour.

The advantages over sprinkler system are:

• Saving of labour.
• Saving of time
• Highly economical
• Requires low maintenance as there is no moving part unlike in sprinkler.
• Works of low pressure ( 0.7kg/cm2 as against 1-4 kg/cm2 for sprinklers
• Requires smaller HP pumps
• Saves electricity
• Laser Spray Jumbo Rain Pipe has fine droplets which does not harm fruits and flower which is a possibility in sprinkler having large water drops
• Laser Spray’s fine droplets dot not compact soil which is often the case with sprinkler with its water jets hitting the ground at high speed.

3. Why is Laser Spray-Jumbo more economical than sprinkler systems?

Unlike sprinklers that require multiple QRC pipes and nozzles to irrigate one acre in shifts, Laser Spray-Jumbo allows irrigation by shifting a single pipe across the field.

Apart from the investment irrigation system, there is huge saving in:

• The pump as smaller HP pump is required due to meet the low pressure requirement of Laser Spray
• Saving in electricity as low HP pump is used
• Saving in labour as only a light weight spray pipe is shifted whereas in case of sprinkler, a number of QRC HDPE pipes and Sprinkler nozzles with Riser pipes are to be shifted.
