Watering and micro-irrigation systems require filters to protect solenoid valves, drippers and micro-sprinklers.<\/p>\n

Installing a hydrocyclone or automatic filter (80 – 100 microns) prevents clogging and reduces maintenance compared with cartridge filters. Several Hectron products are suitable for this application. <\/p>\n
