How to connect

This also applies for PE hose risers that are used between the PVC/PE and the drip laterals.

Use the appropriate size drill bit to create a hole in the PVC. The drill bit size is specified in the Rivulis Connectors brochure for the associated grommet and take-off.

 

Insert the rubber grommet.

 

Insert the start connector.

 

Connect the take-off to the riser or directly to the drip line. In some applications of permanent submains, saddles are also used for connection. For PE of diameters up to 50 mm (2”), a grommet is not always necessary.
