17mm Dura Flo™ Check Valve Dripline, 0.9 GPH Pressure Compensating Emitters, 18 in. Spacing, Brown Polyethylene, 250 ft.

SKU:

SFCV-BR-6418-025S

Lower dripline installation costs and experience an increase in water efficiency with the 17mm Dura Flo™ Check Valve Dripline (0.560 in. ID X 0.660 in. OD). Here's how. The engineered check valve design allows for lower opening pressures which means longer run lengths can be installed. This can reduce the amount of installation materials and labor. It also prevents low emitter drainage on shut down to minimize water loss. The dripline contains 0.9 GPH emitters spaced 18 in. apart; each emitter is designed with an anti-siphon feature to eliminate back-siphonage and prevent clogging. The pressure-compensating dripperline delivers a steady, uniform amount of water even if there are of changes in pressure, elevation, or length of dripline used. Tubing is made of polyethylene, emitters are made of polyethylene and silicone, all treated with UV inhibitors.

Applications

Delivers the same amount of water along the entire line even if the pressure changes; line is kept charged and won't drain out at low points; self-cleaning emitters are spaced evenly apart
Ideal for watering closely spaced plants, hedges, vegetable gardens, planter boxes, and new plantings of ground cover; its flexibility also works as a watering ring for large pots and containers, and makes loops around large trees
As part of a complete drip irrigation system, the dripline delivers water along the entire line, and each of the pressure-compensating emitters distributes water steadily even if the pressure changes

Features

Check valve design enables longer run lengths, which can reduce the amount of materials and labor; prevents low head drainage and keeps line charged
Poly tubing is constructed using a layering method for durability: the outer layer, which is exposed to the sun, and the inner layer, which is exposed to water, is made of 100% virgin content; the middle layer is composed of recycled content
Anti-siphon emitters prevent suction of debris and eliminates need for an air/vacuum relief valve
