Irrigation and rural

Humes provide cost effective and robust solutions for a variety of irrigation and rural needs.

Rubber ring jointed pipes are recommended for irrigation applications where a pressure tight joint seal is required.

A Hume-King floodgate is an end-of-line, non-return valve which helps to protect a pipeline from tidal inundation, the entry of debris, entry by animals and vermin and backflow into pipes.

Humes has developed a bolt-together headwall system which allows for great variation in headwall sizing.

Drop box structures

A drop box structure enables irrigators to move water from tail water return drains into channels and then to on-farm storage. Units can be manufactured to suit any project, with various heights, and the placement of side voids to accommodate pipes.

Channel checks

A channel check enables irrigators to regulate or stop the flow of an irrigation channel. As a bolt-on system these units can be installed in a variety of configurations.

 

Mann irrigation pits are designed to house electromagnetic meters which monitor the flow of water in an irrigation system.

Troughs

Humes offer a range of stock troughs in various shapes and sizes, including an interlocking system to enable continuous troughing to suit a variety of feedlot layouts. We also supply a large range of brass fittings, valves and floats.
