Stop Buying Boxes. Start Buying Engineered Feed Systems.
Sized for your flow, pressure, dilution ratio, and chemistry so your dosing stays stable instead of becoming a season-long headache.
Remote Reliability (Mechanical / Water-Powered)
No electricity required; ideal for remote fields where water flow drives injection.
Digital Precision (Data-Driven / Control-Ready)
Closed-loop dosing for greenhouses, hydroponics, and high-value chemical feed with SCADA integration.
- Calculated Sizing — By irrigation flow (GPM), pressure (PSI), and target injection ratio
- Chemical Compatibility — Seal and wet-end selection (EPDM, Viton, PTFE) based on fertilizer/acid profile
- Upstream Filtration — Protection to prevent grit damage to pumps and valves
- Backflow + Check Valve Architecture — Contamination and compliance risk reduction
Hydroponic RO pathways lower TDS variability before nutrient injection. Correct containment and operator safety strategies reduce leak risk.
What is the difference between mechanical and digital fertigation pumps?
Mechanical injectors are water-powered and require no electricity, making them ideal for remote fields. Digital metering pumps use electricity to provide more data-driven control.
How do I size a chemical injection pump for irrigation?
Sizing requires flow rate (GPM), pressure (PSI), and target injection ratio, preventing undersizing (drift) or oversizing (instability and wear).
Can I use a standard metering pump for sulfuric acid injection?
Often no. Acid typically requires compatible seals/wet-ends (Viton, PTFE) plus proper containment and check valve architecture.
Why does my Dosatron click but not inject?
Common causes include piston/seal issues or grit damage — emphasizing the importance of upstream filtration and water quality management.
Do digital pumps integrate with SCADA systems?
Many digital metering platforms offer control/telemetry options, including common industrial signal standards, to support automation.
What is the benefit of a peristaltic pump for fertigation?
Peristaltic dosing can reduce vapor-lock and seal-leak failure modes for certain difficult-to-prime chemicals.
How do I prevent backflow in a fertigation system?
Use discharge-side check valves plus backflow prevention on the main water line.
Does LibertyCES build custom fertigation skids?
Yes — engineered, plug-and-play skid pathways that combine tank, pump/injector, piping, and controls coordination.
