Option A

Pressure reducer

  • Connect the pressure reducer to a water tap or a pump with a compensation vessel.
  • The pressure is regulated constantly to 1 bar.
  • The plants may be standing up to 4 metres higher or 3 metres lower.
  • Up to 250 Tropf-Blumat sensors can be supplied by one pressure reducer.

Important note:
The pressure reducer must be protected against frost.

Option B

Tank connector

  • Fit the tank connector to any container. To do this, drill a hole with a diameter of 12 mm.
  • The tank must always be higher than the plants (water level at least 0.5 m and max. 14 metres higher).
  • Fit the tank filter additionally, especially when using rain water.

Our recommendation: The water level should be at least 1 metre above the sensors.

TIP: Install a shut-off valve in the feeding tube after the tank connector. This makes it easier to set and clean the tank later.

TIP: An opaque tank with lid reduces the growth of algae.
