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 at 0,15 bar.
