Micro Sprayer Series 038 for Misting, Germination, Seeding and Rooting

Designed for use in greenhouses, DIG’s 52-038-xx micro sprayers produce fine droplets and come in a wide range of flow rates. They are ideal for maintaining conditions conducive to propagation and germination. An optional anti-leak device prevents dripping at the beginning and the end of each irrigation cycle, keeping the entire line pressurized.

Features

  • Used for overhead irrigation and germination, seeding and rooting in greenhouses and nurseries
  • Can be used to maintain proper relative humidity
  • High uniformity at an operating pressure range of up to 35 PSI with a low precipitation rate
  • Available with a dependable anti-leak device with a micro tubing assembly and weight
  • Manufactured from superior durable plastics with UV protection for extended life operation
  • Anti-leak device prevents damage to sensitive plants caused by dripping at the beginning and end of each irrigation cycle
  • Color-coded nozzles for flow rate identification
  • Modular design with a wide range of interchangeable components
  • Suitable for upright and inverted positions
