Bioline Emitter Operation
Bioline® dripperline emitters are pressure compensating - delivering the water uniformly into the soil for further treatment or for reuse by the landscape. These unique emitters allow the tubing to be installed on flat topography or steep slopes.
Bioline emitters are protected against microbial slime. Each emitter is impregnated with an antimicrobial agent to resist biological build-up.
Netafim emitters are continuously self-cleaning during operation, not just at the beginning and end of a cycle. The result is dependable, clog-free operation, year after year.
Netafim recommends flushing velocities capable of breaking free any accumulated bioslimes and debris in the piping network.
Notes:
- Refer to local regulations for information on flushing velocities that may be written into codes.
- Netafim does not endorse a specific flushing velocity.
- Flushing velocities should be determined based on regulations, quality of effluent, and type of flushing control.
- Using a flushing velocity less than 1 fps does not provide turbulent flow as defined by Reynolds Number.
- Higher flushing velocities provide more aggressive flushing.
