LOW PRESSURE AUTOMATIC DISC-KLEEN FILTERS
Up to 15% Energy Saving
Netafim LP Disc-Kleen Filters are fully automatic filters. The newly redesigned filter spine allows flushing at lower pressure thus reducing energy costs, the need of an oversized the pump, and the need for a pressure sustaining valve. All this saves money. The filters now have a grey colored body and cover for easy identification. Netafim's proven depth filtration technology optimizes irrigation and saves water. The small footprint requires less space and units are factory assembled and tested making installation quick and easy. Applications include surface water containing algae and other organic materials such as reservoirs, canals, rivers and wastewater and well water containing light sand (<3 ppm) and other contaminants
LOW PRESSURE-SPINE ALLOWS FILTER FLUSHING AT 30 PSI
Netafim Automatic Disc-Kleens have been used successfully and reliably for many years. Our advanced disc filtration technology optimizes irrigation and saves water. With a redesigned filter spine, the Low Pressure (LP) Automatic Disc Filters can now flush at a lower pressure - 30 psi instead of 40 psi.
SAVE MONEY ON ENERGY COSTS
A lower flushing pressure reduces energy costs which can result in up to 15% energy savings.
SAVE MONEY BY REDUCING PUMP SIZE
A lower flushing pressure reduces the need to oversize the pump for adequate flushing and reduces the need for a Pressure Sustaining Valve - saving money
HIGHER CROP UNIFORMITY
A lower flushing pressure maintains water flow to the field during the flushing cycle ensuring higher crop uniformity.

INFORMATION QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Hydroponics?
Hydroponics is the science of growing plants without soil. The plants thrive on the nutrient-water solution alone. The growing medium merely acts as a support for the plants and their root systems while the solution passes freely. The growing medium, if any, is totally inert.
What types of plants grow best hydroponically?
Anything can be grown hydroponically, but some plants prove to be more space efficient. Some plants we suggest are tomatoes, sweet peppers, hot chilies, lettuce, spinach, squash, cucumbers, broccoli, beans, snow peas, herbs and flowers of all types.
Can you REALLY get better yields/quicker growth?
Absolutely. The plants, when receiving everything they need, tend to be healthier, faster growing and generally more productive. You can expect 30% faster growth with many crops.
What are the watering cycle timelines hydroponic systems?
Once the reservoir is filled with nutrients, it is time to put your hydro system to work! The ease of hydroponics is automation – automation is achieved by putting the pump on a timer according to your watering needs. The watering cycle depends on growth stage, growing medium and hydroponic system. In an ebb and flow or drip system with rockwool as the medium, seedlings, clones and plants in the early vegetative stage require watering only once a day for 15-30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Mature, flowering and fruiting plants require a heavier feed and can be fed once a day for 30 minutes (twice a day for higher temps). Typically soiless mixes and coco fiber can be watered for about 15 minutes twice a day, and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. ViaStone, Hydroton, Grow Rocks, and Silicate mediums need to be watered more frequently – a constant drip for drip systems, and about 15-30 minutes every 3 hours for ebb and flow systems and can be adjusted for heavier feeding during the flowering and fruiting stage or higher temps. Aeroponic systems require frequent watering cycles; 30-60 seconds every few minutes or a constant spray.
What do I need to test pH? How do I test pH?
pH has a range from 0 (acidic) – 14 (alkaline), with 7 being neutral. A proper hydroponic pH range is between 5.5 to 6.2 for most hydroponic crops. For specific crop pH, check out our Plant Guide. pH must remain within the proper range for good plant health, disease resistance, and proper nutrient uptake. pH is maintained by adding pH Up and pH Down to the nutrient solution. For more information, see the Testssection of our site.
How will the flavor compare to my outdoor grown, organic produce?
The taste may be even better! This is simply due to the fact that the hydroponically grown plants are getting everything they need, when they need it. Don’t be fooled by “hot house” produce grown commercially. The grower’s primary concern is shipability and storage, not flavor. When you grow your own vegetables at home, you can expect nothing less than excellent results. Plus, hydroponically grown produce has the added benefit of a longer shelf life.
