Thin-Walled Driplines

Thin-walled driplines represent the forefront of efficient irrigation technology, offering a versatile and robust solution ideal for various agricultural applications, particularly row crops. Engineered with a turbulent flow emitter inseparably welded to the upper wall of the pipe, these driplines ensure superior performance and durability.

Design and Performance

The key features of the thin-walled driplines revolve around their labyrinth-type emitter. This emitter boasts a self-cleaning built-in strainer at the inlet and a wide chamber at the outlet. These characteristics work in unison to minimize clogging, ensuring that the driplines deliver consistent performance over a longer period.

A prominent advantage of these driplines is their long labyrinth, designed to facilitate a uniform discharge rate. This ensures precise irrigation patterns, even over extended lateral lengths, making them perfect for applications like row crop cultivation.

Advantages

• Self-Cleaning Functionality: The self-cleaning feature significantly reduces the likelihood of clogging, ensuring that the irrigation system remains operational with minimal maintenance.
• Uniform Discharge Rate: With a meticulously engineered labyrinth, these driplines deliver a consistent discharge rate throughout their entire length.
• Ease of Handling: They are easy to roll up, store, and reuse, season after season, offering great convenience to farmers.
• Cost-Effective: Despite their advanced features, thin-walled driplines are relatively low in cost, making them accessible to a wider range of users.
• Durability: These driplines are built to last, providing dependable performance over several seasons.

Technical Specifications

1. Outer Diameter: Available in 12mm, 16.5mm, and 20mm to cater to various irrigation needs.
2. Thickness: Options include 0.2mm, 0.25mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, and 0.7mm, allowing customization as per specific application requirements.
3. Discharge Rate: Offered in 2 liters per hour (lph) and 4 lph variants to accommodate different water flow requirements.
4. Dripper Spacing: Choices of 30cm, 40cm, 50cm, 60cm, and above to suit different crop layouts.
5. Lifespan by Thickness:
6. 0.2mm thickness driplines have a life expectancy of 2 years.
7. 0.3mm thickness driplines have a life expectancy of 3 years.
8. 0.5mm thickness driplines have a life expectancy of 5 years.
9. Filtration Requirement: Proper filtration is necessary to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the driplines.

Applications

These thin-walled driplines are particularly well-suited for use in irrigation kits that operate with systems like the Ecoflo hand pump and Ecoflo treadle pump. Their adaptable nature makes them ideal for a range of irrigation tasks in various environmental conditions.

Cylindrical/Round Driplines

In addition to thin-walled driplines, cylindrical or round driplines are also available, offering another dimension of versatility to meet diverse irrigation needs. Just like their thin-walled counterparts, these round driplines incorporate advanced design features to ensure optimal performance and efficiency in water distribution.

Conclusion

Both thin-walled and round driplines symbolize a blend of dependability and advanced technological integration, presenting a comprehensive solution for modern irrigation challenges. Their innovative design—featuring self-cleaning emitters and uniform discharge rates—ensures that crops receive precise and consistent irrigation, promoting healthier and more productive agricultural practices. Easy to handle, cost-effective, and durable, these driplines are a valuable investment for any agricultural setting.
