Description

This is a gravitation watering system using ½'' hose. It is using low pressure. Tested between 0.02 and 0.2 bar (20cm to 2m water height above the watering point). I have connected 40 watering points to the hose on ~0.15 bar (1.5m) and the water flows evenly without any issues. I am using 1000L container put on 1m height base.

When using 1to3 connection, make sure to connect the water supply hose according to arrows. Exit holes have different sizes to even water exit flow.

Make sure to use brims for all models besides the plug. Connectors: 90 deg, 1to2, and 1to3 need to be printed vertically and lower a bit to increase the contact surface with the print plate.

When printing multiple objects on one plate, all the models have to be printed in sequence: by object. Otherwise, the layers will cool too much and PETG will not connect properly ending dropping water with whole surface.

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!
