Agriculture / URGENT sistema di irrigazione
Italian term or phrase: colonnine di settore
Come dimostrato dall'elaborato grafico, dalle prese d’acqua (una ogni 10 m) esterne, poste ad un’altezza di 20 cm dal piano di campagna e munite di saracinesca 2” ½ attraverso dei raccordi ed una tees è possibile sviluppare una colonnina di settore costituita da due valvole a farfalla, due filtri a dischi da 2”, due sfiati aria doppio effetto da 1”, due elettrovalvole da 2” (una per ogni settore irriguo).

Any suggestion much appreciated - my deadline is looming and I cannot find a suitable translation (sector columns/pillars is as far as I can get with this one - but can't find any similar phrase online in this context)...!
