PC emitters deliver a precise amount of water regardless of changes in pressure due to long rows or changes in terrain.   They can simplify the designing of a system and greatly reduce maintenance since they rarely get plugged.   Inside the emitter is a flexible diaphragm that regulates the water flow and tends to flush particles from the system (self-flushing).   The reason we offer different PC emitters is to accomodate a range of water pressure, price and functionality.  

Woodpecker PC (Netafim)

The DNPC12, DNPC1, DNPC2 and DNPC6 Woodpeckers are heavy duty PC emitters!   These have been the product of choice for many years in the rugged vineyards of Northern California.   The EPDM diaphragm is the largest available and the least likely to plug.   1/4" inlet and outlet. Can be used at the end of 1/4" tubing.
PRESSURE RANGE OF 10-70 PSI.
Woodpecker emitters can be split 4 ways. See Greenhouse Watering page for information on Arrow Drippers.

Woodpecker Jr. PC (Netafim)

The DNJR12, DNJR1 and DNJR2 pressure compensating emitters are versatile emitters that can be used in landscapes, greenhouses, orchards or backyard gardens. One unique aspect of this emitter is that it won't begin to emit water until it reaches 5 PSI. This is great for greenhouses or systems that need to pressurize before any of the emitters start to work. This stops the problem in greenhouses where the first plants in the system get over-watered before the last plants have reached saturation. The output of the Woodpecker Jr. is extremely consistent. They can be used with the DNPCAP (above) and the 4 way splitter (DMPCA or DMASS.   1/4" inlet and outlet.
(Note that the DNPCAP will fit on this emitter but the loop on the cap will not fit between the emitter and the tubing as it does with the Woodpecker emitter.)
PRESSURE RANGE OF 10-50 PSI.

Katif

The DKE6, DKE1 and DKE2 are excellent emitters and are also our lowest priced PC emitters.   They are our product of choice when we design irrigation systems for wind rows, shelter belts and orchards.   Katif emitters sit flush with the tubing so they are not easily damaged by weed-eaters or by being stepped on. If you are going to be putting in very many emitters, it is worth getting a Miracle Punch (PUMK).
Pressure range of 10-50 PSI.
NOTE: Katif emitters must be installed directly into 1/2" or 3/4" tubing.
      They cannot be used with 1/4" tubing.
