Ključne karakteristike:

• Ravnomjerna distribucija vode: Consistent water pressure throughout the line ensures uniform irrigation at every drip point.
• Brzina protoka vode: Each emitter delivers approximately 54.1 oz/H (1.6 liters per hour).
• Višenamjenska instalacija: Suitable for both below-ground and above-ground applications.
• Extension Capability: Designed for extending existing below-ground drip irrigation systems.

3. Sigurnosne informacije

Observe all local regulations and safety guidelines when installing and operating irrigation systems. Ensure proper water pressure is maintained within the system to prevent damage. Do not use the drip line with water containing abrasive particles that could clog emitters.

4. Postavljanje i instalacija

The Gardena Drip Irrigation Line can be installed either above ground or discreetly below ground. For below-ground installation, the line is not visible and serves to irrigate bordering plants and lawn areas effectively.

Koraci instalacije:

1. Izgled plana: Determine the optimal path for the drip line to ensure all desired plants or lawn areas receive adequate water. Consider the spacing of emitters for even coverage.
2. Priključak na izvor vode: Attach the drip line to your existing Micro-Drip-System main line or water source using appropriate connectors. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.
3. Pozicioniranje:
   • Above Ground: Lay the drip line directly on the soil surface, securing it with stakes if necessary.
   • Below Ground: Dig a shallow trench (typically 5-10 cm deep) along the planned path. Place the drip line in the trench, ensuring emitters face upwards or are positioned to allow water to seep into the soil effectively. Cover the trench with soil.
4. Extend System (if applicable): This drip line is designed for extension. Connect additional lengths of drip line or other Micro-Drip-System components as needed.
5. Ispiranje sistema: Before final operation, temporarily remove end caps and flush the system with water to clear any debris that may have entered during installation.
6. Probni rad: Turn on the water supply and inspect the entire system for proper water flow from each emitter and for any leaks.

5. Uputstvo za upotrebu

Once installed, the Gardena Drip Irrigation Line operates by delivering water at a consistent rate through its integrated emitters. The system is designed to maintain uniform water pressure, ensuring that all plants along the line receive the same amount of water.

Operacija:

• Vodovod: Connect the system to a suitable water supply. For optimal performance, ensure the water pressure is within the recommended range (up to 15 bars maximum).
• Irrigation Schedule: Use a timer or manual valve to control the duration and frequency of watering cycles. Adjust based on plant needs, soil type, and weather conditions.
• Nadgledanje: Periodically check the system to ensure all emitters are functioning correctly and delivering water as expected.

6. Održavanje

Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and efficiency of your drip irrigation system.

Savjeti za održavanje:

• Čišćenje filtera: If your system includes a filter, clean it regularly to prevent sediment buildup and emitter clogging.
• Emitter Inspection: Periodically check emitters for clogs. If an emitter is blocked, gently clean it or replace the section of the line if necessary.
• Zimljenje: In regions with freezing temperatures, drain the system completely before winter to prevent damage from freezing water. Disconnect the main water supply and open all end caps to allow water to escape.
• Inspekcija linije: Inspect the drip line for any physical damage, kinks, or leaks. Repair or replace damaged sections promptly.
