Installation Steps
Technical Information
- Internal Diameter: 0.5” / 13mm
- Outer Diameter: 0.7” / 18mm
The tubing is designed to work with a pressure of between 15 and 45 PSI.
Burst pressure: 160 PSI
Maximum water volume delivered:
- 80 Gallons/hour at 45 PSI
- 70 Gallons/hour at 35 PSI
- 60 Gallons/hour at 20 PSI
How to correctly attach the tubing to a coupling:
Please make sure you have some form of filtration and pressure regulation installed on your water source.
Why is it important:
Filtration: the couplings and emitters have small openings that can clog with debris or sediments if there’s no filtration used.
Pressure regulation: pressure over 45 PSI can blow off the fittings and damage the micro irrigation system over time. You can find a wide variety of inexpensive pressure regulators on Amazon.com or at your local home improvement store.
Do not use oil or other lubricants to assemble the parts; it will deteriorate the line and fittings and make them easier to blow off under the water pressure.
Do not use glue as it might clog the installation and you won’t be able to clean it in case of debris or sediments.
