Excel™ PCD 1/2 in. Dripline 18 mm

Excel™ PCD 1/2 in. Dripline 18 mm

Excel™ 1/2″ PCD, Pressure Compensating, Dual Outlet Dripline is a reliable, durable and precise dripline with dual outlets per each emitter, used for narrow or dense plantings. If one drip emitter outlet becomes blocked, a second outlet on the opposing side of the emitter provides redundancy to the emitter performance. An additional benefit of the dual outlets is that it doesn’t matter which direction you lay the dripline; it will operate either way. Excel™ 1/2″ PCD drip emitters have floating diaphragms to regulate and maintain a consistent flow rate at variable inlet pressures, ranging from 12 to 50 PSI in a wide range of demanding conditions.

Features

  • Made of premium low-density polyethylene resins with UV protection and large, tough cylindrical drip emitters
  • Offers a combination of outstanding environmental stress-cracking resistance and burst strength for a wide range of irrigation applications
  • Two flow rates to provide maximum flexibility in a variety of applications
  • Flow-regulated, self-flushing inline drip emitters deliver equal flow at a wide range of operating pressures
  • Flow uniformity regardless of operating pressure and variation along the line
  • Drip emitter and diaphragm are self-contained units that are molded into the interior wall of the tubing
  • Dual outlet configuration; if one outlet becomes blocked, a second outlet on the opposing side of each drip emitter along the line provides redundancy to the dripline’s performance
  • Turbulent flow through a large labyrinth water passage helps reduce clogging
  • Emitters are made of three individual sections including a cylindrical plastic housing with a labyrinth water passage, a plastic receptacle and a floating silicon diaphragm
  • Resistant to chemicals and fertilizers commonly used in landscaping
  • Flexible for easy installation
  • Marked with flow rate, size and date for easy identification
  • Use with DIG’s .700″ OD compression fittings and universal Nut Lock™ fittings
