Netafim Woodpecker Pressure Compensating Dripper - 2.0 GPH - Black/Green - 250 Count

Steady 2.0 GPH Flow Across Changing Line Pressure - 250 Drippers

Uneven pressure along a drip line leads to uneven watering, with some plants getting too much and others too little. The Netafim Woodpecker Pressure Compensating Dripper regulates its output so each emitter delivers a consistent 2.0 GPH across an operating range of 7 to 60 PSI. A 5 PSI internal check valve and anti-siphon operation add protection against low-pressure drainage and drawn-in contaminants.

This unit holds 250 drippers, which suits growers outfitting a full irrigation zone, a greenhouse or a commercial block. Smaller gardens can use it to stock up for repairs and expansion of hydroponic systems and drip lines.

Key Features & Benefits

• Pressure compensation — keeps flow consistent at 2.0 GPH when line pressure varies between 7 and 60 PSI.
• 5 PSI internal check valve — helps prevent drainage when pressure drops.
• Anti-siphon operation — helps stop contaminants from being drawn into the dripper.
• Techline CV Dripperline compatibility — works with that dripperline.
• 120 mesh filtration recommended — gives a clear target for your filter setup.

Who Should Use Netafim Woodpecker Pressure Compensating Dripper

Commercial cultivators, greenhouse operators and serious home gardeners who need uniform water delivery across long runs or varied pressures will get the most from this dripper. It also suits anyone building a system with Techline CV Dripperline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What flow rate does this dripper deliver?
A: It delivers 2.0 GPH. Pressure compensation keeps that rate steady while line pressure stays within its operating range.

Q: What pressure range does it work in?
A: The operating range is 7 PSI minimum to 60 PSI maximum. Keep your system within those limits for consistent output.

Q: What does pressure compensating mean?
A: A pressure compensating dripper adjusts internally so output stays consistent when line pressure changes. This helps plants at the start and end of a long run receive similar amounts of water.

Q: What does the internal check valve do?
A: The 5 PSI check valve stays closed below that pressure. This helps prevent the line from draining when the system shuts off.

Q: What filtration should I use?
A: 120 mesh filtration is recommended. Good filtration helps protect small emitter passages from clogging.

Q: Does it work with Techline CV Dripperline?
A: Yes, it is listed as compatible with Techline CV Dripperline.
