Drip Emitters
Drip emitters are the heart of any drip irrigation system. Drip emitters, or drippers, deliver small amounts of water directly to the plant roots, optimizing soil moisture with less water lost to evaporation, runoff and wind. DIG provides high quality, high uniformity and reliable drip emitters designed for residential and commercial landscape installations. Drip emitters are easy to install directly into the 1/2″ poly drip tubing or extended to the plants with 1/4″ micro tubing. DIG’s drip emitters incorporate four different operating characteristics that include pressure compensation, turbulent flow, vortex, and adjustable flow. DIG provides detailed information on each type of drip emitter, including product specifications, product features, and installation videos. Replace your overhead sprinkler irrigation with low-volume, drip irrigation, and save a significant amount of water by improving irrigation efficiency and lowering water runoff. For even more savings, check with your city for drip irrigation rebate program eligibility.
PC Button Drip Emitters
DIG Pressure Compensating (PC) Button Drip Emitters are designed to produce a consistent flow rate over a pressure range of 10 to 45 PSI. DIG PC drip button emitters are continuously adjusting to varying water pressures, ensuring a constant flow from each drip emitter regardless of pressure fluctuations or varying elevations along the line. The PC drip emitters are available in .5, 1, 2 and 4 GPH and includes models, B2205B/B2205-25PC (.5-GPH, pack of 10 or 25), B221B/B221-25PC (1-GPH, pack of 10 or 25), B222B/B222-25PC (2-GPH, pack of 10 or 25) and B224B/B224-25PC (4-GPH, pack of 10 or 25).
