PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The Injector operates on the principle of vacuum suction created by an advanced Venturi complex. This implements the latest know-how in hydraulic technology and allows the injectors to operate at small pressure differentials.
A vacuum is created as the water flows through a converging passage that gradually widens (see diagram).
Injection is activated at the chemical inlet, when there is a pressure differential between the water entering the injectors and the water and chemical leaving to the irrigation system.
This pressure differential can be between 15-75% according to the required injection rate.
