The Xeri-Bug Emitter 1.0 GPH is a small, low-flow emitter that delivers water at a rate of 1.0 gallons per hour (GPH). It is part of Rain Bird's Xeri-Bug series, which is known for its precision and reliability in watering plants with drip irrigation.
The emitter features a unique bug-like design, with six flexible "legs" that serve as pressure-compensating diaphragms. These diaphragms help maintain a consistent flow rate across a wide range of operating pressures, ensuring uniform water distribution to plants.
This emitter is compatible with 1/4-inch distribution tubing commonly used in drip irrigation systems. It can be easily inserted into the tubing, allowing for simple installation and customization of your watering setup.
The Xeri-Bug Emitter 1.0 GPH is designed for use in low-volume, low-pressure applications such as flower beds, shrubs, and ground cover. It provides precise water delivery to individual plants, helping to conserve water by minimizing runoff and evaporation.
