Product information
The purpose of FasterRain is to offer a comprehensive upgrade that covers all aspects. This means that the focus is not only on the amount of water used and thus the correct utilisation of natural resources. Savings on fuel and man-hours as well as better ergonomics are equally important.

The various FasterRains levels
The purpose of FasterRain is to offer a comprehensive upgrade that covers all aspects. This means that the focus is not only on the amount of water used and thus the correct utilisation of natural resources. Savings on fuel and man-hours as well as better ergonomics are equally important.
Without the cloud, the remaining setting options can also be used via the FasterRain app when connected to the local Wi-Fi of the irrigator or via the FasterRain controller.
FasterRain is standard equipment from the 2025 series onwards, but it can also be installed on older irrigators. Access to the cloud solution follows the purchase of FasterRain, and the first season is free of charge. This allows farmers to try out the different functions and find out how they contribute to daily field irrigation. Subsequently, the management system can be purchased as a annual subscription. To ensure the best training, help is available in the shape of instructions and how-to videos.
The cloud solution includes two apps, FasterRain and FasterRain Monitor. Where FasterRain can be used to actively control field irrigation remotely, FasterRain Monitor provides an overview of the machine status and information about individual irrigations.
