DIVERSION POINT WATER DELIVERY CONTROL SYSTEM
A diversion point water delivery control system with a headgate assembly, first gate, and powered actuator for controlling the first gate. A headgate box surrounds the headgate assembly and has a second gate that restricts waterflow to the diversion point. Sensors measure water levels adjacent to the headgate box and determine water flow. A powered control unit connects to the powered actuator and sensors and has a computer with memory to operate the system, as well as a transceiver for sending and receiving instructions and data. In one mode of operation, the first gate may be automatically positioned and repositioned to maintain a predetermined water flow through a diversion to a channeled waterway despite water level fluctuations in a primary waterway from which water is diverted. This helps the system conserve water by preventing overdelivery and over-diversion in water delivery networks.
