  About Techline Dripperline  
     
  Techline® dripperline . . . the irrigation problem-solver  
     
 

Netafim Techline, the world's most advanced on-surface or subsurface dripperline irrigation system, has established a proven track record in every application that traditional sprinklers have been used.

In fact, irrigation professionals agree that Netafim Techline is more effective than sprinklers in hard-to-irrigate "problem" areas, including:

  
 
  • Shrub or bedding plant areas
  • Median strips
  • Odd shaped areas
  • High traffic or liability areas
  • Where sprinklers create a tripping hazard
  • Steep slopes
  • Parking lot islands
  • At grade windows
  • Interiorscape plantings
  • High wind areas
 
  Why Techline works better - the dripper  
 

The Techline pressure compensating dripper is a fully self-contained unit molded to the interior wall of the dripper tubing itself. Both the tubing and the dripper housing are manufactured from high quality synthetic elastomers to withstand chemicals and fertilizers.

As shown here, in the 4 step sequence, Techline is 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.

  
     
 

1. Regulating Mode

Water flows freely along the center of the tubing, keeping debris out of the dripper itself. Techline's exclusive diaphragm and labyrinth design ensures a consistent flow rate.

2. Initiation of Flushing Cycle

Particles create back ressure and push back the diaphragm to initiate the flush cycle.

3. Flushing Cycle

Diaphragm flexes and any particles are washed out of the regulating chamber.

4. Regulating Mode

After flushing, Techline automatically resumes its regulating mode.
