Rivulis D5000 PC AS CX Drip Line
Your barrier against root intrusion
Product Description
Part of the D5000 range, the D5000 PC AS CX is a significant advancement in drip technology in recent times, having set a new standard in performance and reliability.
It has Cu2 O (copper oxide) blended into the resin of every D5000 PC AS CX drip emitter to create a long-term, safe, and non-leaching solution to reduce dripper root intrusion. It works to eliminate the need to frequently inject herbicides.
Product Specifications
- From engineering designed to provide maximum resistance clogging to precision manufacturing with state-of-the-art quality controls, Rivulis D5000 range of drip lines are the ones to choose if you’re in the business of growing great crops.
- Now you can combine D5000 PC AS performance and reliability with the addition of Cu2O to reduce root intrusion in subsurface applications. It performs well sub-surface because each dripper has an anti-syphon mechanism (AS).
- Manufactured with meticulous attention to detail, every emitter goes through a multi-stage automated testing process to ensure correct assembly. A photo of every inserted emitter is taken (up to 7 per second) to ensure correct alignment in the drip line during production and meets several tests before dispatch.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the risks associated with SDI systems?
Root intrusion and suction could be the main risks associated with SDI. With the Copper Oxide included in the drippers and AS (anti-syphon) mechanism, we are minimizing the risks.
How does Copper Oxide work towards repelling roots?
It has been well documented that copper reduces root elongation and branching. When plant roots encounter copper, the copper reduces trans-root potential and reduces cell elongation.
How does the anti-siphon mechanism work?
When we stop the irrigation on SDI, the system could try to introduce sand particles from outside of the dripper to inside. The anti-siphon mechanism reduces the suction avoiding sand particles to go into the dripper.
