Flow Requirements:
Low Flow Hose & Drip Systems
Drip systems with less than 120 gallons per hour (GPH) water flow may
require an EZ-FLO
Flo-Disc
in order to inject solution into the drip
system.
There are three discs provided for these conditions.
Important:
You must have colored fertilizer in the EZ-FLO tank or food dye to
adjust the system. Let the system run for a few minuets to make sure the
fertilizer is not flowing before installing or changing the Flo-Disc. If there is not
color in the clear tube, the system is not flowing and a more restrictive Flo-Disc
is required for operation.
White Flo-Disc 120 to 60 gph
Black Flo-Disc 60 to 30 gph
Red Flo-Disc 30 to 7.5 gph
When using a Flo-Disc, pre-dilute
products 4 parts water with 1 part
product (25% Strength).
Step 1.
Estimate your water flow by
multiplying the number of drip emitters
on your system by their gallons per
hour flow rating.
(If you do not know your
water flow you can use trial & error starting
without a Flo-Disc. If no color is present in the
clear line insert a Flo-disc starting with the
white)
Step 2.
Remove the washer from the
swivel nut on the hose bib adaptor. For
easy removal, use pliers to grab the O-
Ring tab or a plain end screw driver.
Step 3.
Push the proper
Flo-Disc
into
the hose bib adaptor until it presses
firmly against the flow restrictor in the
center of the hose bib adaptor. The
water flow will hold the disc in place.
Step 4.
Replace the hose bib adaptor
hose washer and follow steps 2 through
4 in the “
Installing your EZ-FLO
”
in
these instructions.
Note:
The Flo-Disc is not intended for pressure reduction and cannot be used for this
purpose. The Flo-Disc will create additional bypass through the tank when necessary to
speed up injection
