Netafim Single Pattern Pressure Compensating Spray Stake - 6.6gph - Grey - 22psi

Netafim Single Pattern PC Spray Stake NET22500-002130 -- 6.6gph, Grey

The Netafim Single Pattern Pressure Compensating Spray Stake delivers consistent 6.6gph output regardless of pressure variation across the irrigation line, so every container receives the same amount of water from the first pot to the last. An integrated check valve prevents post-cycle dripping that can cause overwatering or soil disturbance, while the single spray pattern provides controlled soil surface wetting with reduced misting and wind drift. It is color-coded in Grey for easy system identification and replacement part ordering.

Key Features & Benefits

• Pressure Compensation: Maintains consistent 6.6gph output across the full system regardless of pressure variation between the first and last emitter.
• Integrated Check Valve: Prevents dripping after cycle shutoff, protecting containers from overwatering and soil surface disruption between irrigation cycles.
• Single Spray Pattern: Provides controlled, uniform soil surface wetting with reduced misting and minimized wind drift in greenhouse and nursery environments.
• Grey Color Code: Simplifies emitter identification and replacement part selection in multi-emitter system layouts.
• Stake-Mounted Design: Positions the emitter directly at the container or growing media surface for targeted delivery without overhead waste.

Who Should Use This

Nursery operators, container growers, and greenhouse irrigators running Netafim dripper systems who need uniform, pressure-compensated 6.6gph spray delivery across large numbers of containers with drip-free shutoff between cycles.

Compatibility

For use with Netafim dripper assembly 01PSD066-36B or 01PSD066-48B. Confirm assembly compatibility before ordering, since this single pattern spray stake (NET22500-002130) is specified for that assembly configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is pressure compensation and why does it matter for container irrigation?

Pressure compensation means the emitter delivers the same flow rate across a range of inlet pressures. In long lateral lines, pressure varies from inlet to end, so compensation ensures every container receives the same amount regardless of its position in the line.

Does the integrated check valve require any maintenance?

The check valve is passive and maintenance-free under normal operating conditions. Flush the system periodically to prevent debris buildup at the emitter orifice.

Does this stake include the dripper?

No. This is a stake-only listing, and the compatible dripper assemblies are sold separately, so pair it with Netafim Dripper Assembly 01PSD066-36B or 01PSD066-48B for a complete assembly.

How do I know if I need the single or double pattern version?

The single pattern directs spray in one direction and suits edge-of-container applications, while the double pattern sprays in two directions for center-of-container or larger container coverage. This single pattern listing (NET22500-002130) covers the single-direction case.
