Dramm - JetRain Clean Out Check Valve 15-50 PSI

Brand: Dramm

JetRain Clean Out Check Valve 15-50 PSI

The anti-drip half of a JetRain nozzle, sold on its own: a low pressure check valve rated 15-50 psi with a cleanout, that a JetRain nozzle cone press-fits onto. It shuts the line between cycles so nothing drips on the crop below, and it holds every nozzle on a run closed until the same pressure is reached, which is what keeps the first and last nozzle putting down the same water. When debris does get under the diaphragm and the valve runs or drips, the cleanout opens so it can be flushed instead of scrapped.

The only choice is the inlet. Barbed punches into PE tubing, including tubing carried in Dramm PolyRail, and is the version used on drops hung below baskets from a leader tube. Threaded taps into PVC and goes into aluminum pipe and riser assemblies. Everything else is common: both carry the same 15-50 psi rating and the same cleanout, and a JetRain cone of any color press-fits onto either. One scoping note before you order - this is the low pressure valve. Dramm also builds JetRain around a higher pressure check valve for systems running above this band, and that version is not on this page.

Configurations

Key Features

• Stops the line dripping on the crop between misting cycles
• Holds every nozzle on the run closed until the same pressure, so coverage stays even end to end
• Cleanout opens for flushing rather than scrapping the valve when debris lodges under the diaphragm
• Press-fit outlet accepts any color of JetRain cone, 360 degree or 180 degree
• 15-50 psi band covers propagation mist through overhead irrigation
• Sold on its own, so a failed valve does not mean a whole new nozzle

Ideal Applications

• Replacing a check valve that drips or runs when the system is off
• Building JetRain nozzles from components to a chosen flow rate
• Hanging drops below baskets from a leader tube, using the barbed inlet
• Riser and PVC assemblies, using the threaded inlet

The JetRain nozzle cone that press-fits onto it is sold separately in both 360 degree and 180 degree patterns, and the JetRain On/Off Valve is designed to sit between this check valve and the cone so a single nozzle can be shut off.
