Xeri-Bug Drip Emitters
Point-Source Low-Flow Emitters for Watering the Root Zones of Plants, Trees, and Container Plants
Ideal for watering the root zones of plants, trees, and container plants. Xeri-Bugs emit water at rates of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 gallons-per-hour (GPH) which allows soils to absorb water more completely into the root zones of plants.
Features
The only emitters with self-piercing barbs, making them the easiest to install using the Xeriman™ tool
Widest selection of pressure-compensating emitters, with 3 flow rates and 3 inlet options
Most compact and unobtrusive emitters
Flow-rates of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 gph (1.89, 3.79 and 7.57 l/h)
Pressure-compensating design delivers uniform flow throughout a wide pressure range (15 to 50 psi; 1.0 to 3.5 bar)
Available with 3 different inlets (1.0 and 2.0 models):
-Self-piercing barb for quick, one-step insertion into 1⁄2" or 3⁄4" drip tubing
-10-32 threaded inlet that easily threads into a PolyFlex Riser (see page 130), 1032 Thread adapter (page 130) or 1800 Xeri-Bubbler Adapter (page 130)
-1⁄2" FPT inlet that easily threads onto a 1⁄2" PVC riser (1.0 and 2.0 gph models)
Outlet barb securely retains 1⁄4" Distribution Tubing (XQ)
Design makes installation and maintenance easy
-Self-flushing action minimizes clogging
-Robust design made from highly inert materials that are resistant to chemicals
-Durable plastic construction is UV-resistant
Color-coded to identify flow rate
