VGB Watertechniek Driplines

Self-closing pressure- compensated dripping hose designed for fruit growing.

A dripping hose with integrated pressure-compensated bush-like auto-shut-off drippers.

The most important properties of the VGB dripping hose:

  • A build in valve prevents continued dripping after the faucet is shut off.
  • This property protects dripping hoses from sucking up dirt, as a result of which the hose can also be used subsurface.
  • A very accurate floating diaphragm regulates and controls constant delivery even under alternating admission pressure.
  • The large bush-like labyrinth dripper is less dirt sensitive and self cleaning in the pressure regulated part at the outlet of the dripper.
  • The hose is UV resistant.
  • Resistant to the most common chemicals and manures used in agriculture.
  • Complies with delivery uniformity category A (ISO 9261)

The specification of the VGB dripping hose:

  • Delivery available from 1 to 3.5 ltr per hour.
  • Maximum service pressure between 0.8 and 3.5 bars.
  • Closing pressure is 0,1 bar and opening pressure is 0,3 bar.
  • The dripping hose diameters are 12-16-20 mm.

The benefits of the VGB dripping hose:

  • Dripper immediately waters at the start.
