1/2" male thread flushing valve for cleaning drip irrigation sides, especially indicated for underground irrigation from the manufacturer NETAFIM.
Netafim's automatic flushing valve is the ideal device for cleaning drip lines.
The valve performs a flush at the beginning of each irrigation and closes hydraulically when the chamber is pressurized.
It is especially indicated for the periodic cleaning of subterranean drip irrigation sectors. Its correct installation extends the useful life of the systems.
Features:
Simple and reliable structure.
Resistant to non-concentrated chemicals and fertilizers.
Radiation resistant.
It is not sensitive to poor water quality.
Technical data:
Closing pressure: 0.1 bar
Materials: PP and EPDM
Wash volume: 1.2 liters
Connections: RM 1/2", ring connection
Wash duration: 10 seconds
Maximum pressure: 4 bar
Design and installation criteria:
Install the flushing valves on the opposite side of the solenoid valve.
Put a valve for every 3.5 m3/h of sector flow maximum.
Install the valves in circular manholes with a bed of gravel at the base.
Operating mode:
The valve is open at the start of irrigation.
During the filling of the system, the water comes out through the rear holes of the valve, expelling the sedimented dirt in the pipes by dragging it.
The closure is done when the water, through the dripper, pressurizes the chamber and closes the holes.
