Pipe made of polyethylene, with integrated anti-root underground self-compensating dripper, short cylindrical.
It undoubtedly represents the future of irrigation, which is underground irrigation, because it provides savings of up to 40% in water added to its maximum durability. This provides the exact amount of water, nutrients and agrochemical products, that your crop needs, directly at the root of the plant.
APPLICATIONS:
Adaptable to all types of crops and gardening: olive groves, citrus, alfalfa, asparagus, cotton, corn, soybeans, sugar cane, vineyards, almond trees, peach trees, grass, etc.
FEATURES / BENEFITS:
- REVOLUTIONARY ANTI-ROOT SYSTEM
After 4 years of research and more than 8 years of experience in various crops, we have reinvented underground irrigation, creating and patenting a root repellent system incorporated into the dripper, which is slowly released over a useful life of up to 10 years , in small doses, preventing the roots from getting close to the emitter.
- INNOVATIVE ANTI-SUCTION SYSTEM
What makes Terram even more extraordinary is its anti-suction or anti-sphon system, which blocks the aspiration of particles from the ground, when the installation is stopped and the pipes are emptied. Thus avoiding any type of clogging, so you can be calm, thanks to Terram technology.
- ZERO OBSTRUCTIONS
Thanks to its fabulous self-cleaning system, at the moment of self-compensation there is a vibration of the membrane, preventing the incrustation of particles inside the emitter.
- 100% UNIFORM FLOW
The Terram dripper's self-compensating system always provides the same amount of water and nutrients at working pressures from 0,8 to 3,5 bar. This allows to increase the length of the irrigation lines as well as their implantation in terrain with difficult topography.
- INCREDIBLE SAVINGS OF UP TO 40% OF WATER AND NUTRIENTS
The absence of solar radiation in the water emission zone completely eliminates losses due to surface evaporation. Besides, the dose of nutrients is placed exactly where the plant needs it, since we are talking about an ultra-localized irrigation. We will also get 45% more volume of wet soil, given the same amount of water. To this must be added a 15% increase in harvests and a 5% more fruit production according to the studies carried out by Gestiriego.
- AVOIDS PROBLEMS CAUSED BY ILLNESSES
Cryptogamic diseases, caused by flooding, such as alternation, are avoided, since excess humidity never occurs in the neck area of the plant.
- CROP MANAGEMENT
Being an invisible system in the field, it allows us free passage, especially in tasks such as pruning, harvesting, phytosanitary treatments, etc. This also extends the durability of the system, since it is impossible to damage the emitting pipes in such tasks.
- LABOR REDUCTION
In addition to the advantages of a traditional drip irrigation, there are those derived from the removal and replacement of pipes caused by the usual tasks of a crop in production.
- ALLOWS THE USE OF POLLUTED WATER
It avoids the risk of human and animal contact with irrigation waters, which can sometimes be harmful to health, due to the loads of fertilizers and phytosanitary treatments that are usually carried out in irrigation. It is also indicated for the use of wastewater in applications such as urban gardening.
- GREATER DURABILITY OF THE SYSTEM
By having the entire pipe network underground, the degradation produced by UV rays in the plastic material is eliminated, in addition to avoiding damage by vandalism, rodents and inclement weather.
- REDUCTION OF WEEDS BY UP TO 80%
The non-moistening of the surface of the land largely prevents the proliferation of weeds, with the consequent savings in labor and treatments to eradicate them.
- WARRANTY AND PEACE OF MIND
The double protection system, together with the extra elements such as the exhaustive placement of suction cups, flow meter and a closed-circuit network system by means of cleaning collectors at the end of the line, provides us with a guarantee and peace of mind of the correct operation of the system. , avoiding worries when it comes to providing additional treatments against the root manually.
SPECIFICATIONS:
• Nominal diameters 16 mm. Thickness 1,1mm.
• Coils of 400 m.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Installation or mechanical burial of the pipes by means of an adapted mole plow.
- Installation in a closed circuit, joining the irrigation sides in pipes or drainage collectors to facilitate their cleaning.
- Placement of extra elements in the installation, such as a flow meter and more exhaustive installation of suction cups or air valves.
