Fixed-platform intake
A piled platform with jetty access supports the pump station. Its elevation and location must accommodate both high and low water levels.
LARGE-SCALE & COMMUNITY IRRIGATION
Water infrastructure for whole communities.
River and lake intakes, floating stations, fixed platforms and distribution systems for larger irrigation programmes.
Water for All.From source to harvest.
LARGE IRRIGATION / COMMUNITY WATER
Think beyond one farm.
Plan for a whole community.
For 100+ hectare programmes and other high-volume projects, design starts with the river or lake, changing water levels, land elevation and the distribution network.
Floating modular intake
An anchored floating unit follows the water level. Mooring, flexible discharge connections and maintenance access are part of the design.
Multi-pump pontoon
A shared pontoon can carry larger pumps for high-volume transfer or direct distribution, with shore-side solar power and project-specific controls.
Two-stage or direct pumping
Choose high-volume transfer into a reservoir with a downstream booster station, or direct pumping using a larger fixed or floating station. The appropriate arrangement depends on the site and distribution pressure.

Fixed platform and jetty
The presentation describes a piled platform with stable access. Installation requires suitable piling equipment and a platform height and shore distance based on both highest and lowest water levels.
Individual floating units
A floating unit follows changes in water level. The presentation highlights modular transport and assembly, with anchor allowance for the full water-level range and boat access for maintenance.
Shared multi-pump pontoon
A larger pontoon may support direct pumping rather than a reservoir-and-booster arrangement. The source identifies local construction, installation cost and the full pressure requirement as design considerations.
Intake, storage, filtration and distribution.
The river-intake example connects pumping to sand separation, a level-controlled reservoir, downstream pumping, disc filtration and irrigation zones. The Brain Box links the selected sensors and control functions.
Source basis: presentation pages 13 and 16-26. The 9,000 m3/h, 15 m, maximum 3 x 400 kW pontoon and 1,800-hectare reference are conceptual figures from page 23, not a standard set or a guaranteed coverage commitment.
