Aquarius PC ™
Online PC Emitter
The most versatile and easy
to install Pressure Compensating
emitter for a great variety of
applications.
Pressure Compensating (PC)
Aquarius PC ™ emitters incorporate a silicone membrane which enables the delivery of precise and equal amounts of water over a broad pressure range. Aquarius PC ™ emitters are designed for precision irrigation needs, ranging from a home garden to the most advanced hydroponic application.
Ultrasonic Welding Technology
The advanced welding process of Aquarius PC ™ eliminates the problem all online emitters eventually face, leakage between the body and the cover of the emitter. In our emitter this is prevented by a parallel formation and welding of the cover, around the edge of the body of Aquarius PC ™, making it impossible to leak regardless of the climatic or pressure conditions
Drain (D) and Non-Drain (ND) Options
With the Non-Drain system of Aquarius PC ™, the pipe remains full of water during irrigation intervals, ensuring immediate and uniform irrigation along the pipe. Non-Drain emitters eliminate drainage and refill effect, and improve efficiency in pulse irrigation. In order to achieve the Non-Drain function, the emitter closes when the pressure is below 0,1 bar.
