Waterspinnen - capillary manifold 8*1 m including needle

Product detailed description

Give your plants exactly what they need while minimising effort and resources. The Waterspinnen capillary manifold is a key component for automating and optimising irrigation, ensuring maximum growing efficiency and supporting robust growth. This specialised system enables precise and even distribution of nutrient solution or water, resulting in healthier plants and more abundant yields.

Precision irrigation for advanced growers

As an advanced home grower or operator of a small professional growing facility, you know that every detail matters. The Waterspinnen capillary manifold is designed to meet the highest standards of precision. Its eight-way construction enables individual and targeted irrigation of up to eight annual plants at once, making it ideal for those who want to achieve the optimal development of each plant in their collection.

This system significantly reduces water and nutrient consumption, as the solution is delivered directly to the root system, eliminating waste and evaporation. Your plants receive exactly what they need, when they need it, which is reflected in their vitality and overall prosperity. You will also appreciate the considerable saving in time that would otherwise be spent on manual watering.

Product specifications

• Type: Capillary manifold (drip capillary)
• Number of outlets: 8 (eight-way)
• Capillary length per outlet: 1 metre

Installation and use

Installing the Waterspinnen capillary manifold is quick and intuitive. Simply connect the manifold to the main nutrient solution supply from your reservoir and pump. Then use the integrated 1-metre capillaries with needles to deliver the nutrient solution directly to the root ball of each plant. The needles ensure stable securing in the growing medium and prevent unwanted movement of the capillaries.

For optimal performance, we recommend regularly checking and maintaining your irrigation system. Keep water quality and the cleanliness of the nutrient solution in mind to prevent the capillaries from becoming blocked. We recommend using high-quality filters to protect the system. You can find them in our wide range of filter solutions for irrigation systems.

Compatibility and recommended use

This capillary manifold is the perfect choice for modern growing methods that require precise nutrient delivery. Its design and functionality are optimised for:

• Hydroponic systems: Ideal for both circulating and recirculating hydroponics, where control over nutrient delivery and pH is crucial, e.g. in DWC, NFT, Ebb & Flow systems.
• Coco substrates: Coco growing media require more frequent and smaller nutrient doses, which Waterspinnen delivers efficiently.
• Automatic irrigation systems: Integrates perfectly into any automatic irrigation system for growing in larger containers.
• Growing annual plants: Ensures optimal nutrient uptake during critical growth and flowering stages, supporting maximum yield.
• ... and many other specialised growing applications.

To maximise your plants' potential and ensure optimal nutrition, take inspiration from leading suppliers such as Terra Aquatica, which offers a complete range of fertilisers and beneficial supplements.

We also recommend visiting the resources section for detailed information on growing and the use of nutrients, as well as general information about the company. For other irrigation system components, such as drip and micro-irrigation systems, valves, connectors and accessories, or systems for automation and control, see our wide range of irrigation products.

To connect to the distribution hose, use a connector or a DCS pressure valve from Netafim, which is included with the product.

Connectors are fitted directly into the hose; the hole in the hose should be 2–3 mm. You can use a hole punch. to make the hole.

We currently do not have a suitable hose for connecting the capillary manifold in our range.
