The standard spacing for effluent disposal is 24 X 24 inches. Different flow rates, tube diameters and spacings are available against special order. Use CA6OO compression adapters to connect the dripline to PVC pipe. Spacing Diameter Turbulent Flow Passage Pressure Max. 1.0 gph 45 psi 429 ft.
Steep slopes require fewer pressure regulators.
Vacuum relief valves must be placed at the top of each rise. Contains a silicon rubber diaphragm which may not last as long as the plastic components. Systems with large elevation changes that are not designed very carefully are prone to the creation of vacuum upon shut down, causing soil ingestion. The dirt may lodge permanently under the diaphragm. The herbicide is released at a uniform rate, maintaining sufficient concentration in the soil immediately surrounding the drip outlet to prevent longitudinal root growth into the emitter.
