Pressure reducer – Precise control for your irrigation
Optimal pressure regulation for even water distribution.
Pressure reducers are essential for precise and consistent water delivery in your irrigation system. They ensure that the water pressure remains stable, regardless of the water volume or elevation differences within the system.
Benefits of pressure reducers
Benefits | Description |
---|---|
Constant water delivery | Ensures consistent water pressure throughout the system. |
Prevents damage | Protects the system from excessive water pressure and prevents leaks. |
Efficient irrigation | Optimizes water distribution and conserves water. |
Versatile use | Suitable for various irrigation systems and applications. |
Overview of our pressure regulators
Pressure range | Description | Advantage / Disadvantage |
---|---|---|
0.53 bar | Features a compensating bore to discharge excess water, preventing damage, and is our cost-effective pressure reducer option. | The operating pressure is pre-set to 8 PSI / 0.53 bar. |
0.69 bar | Ideal for areas where no water leakage is allowed. Additionally, highly robust and durable. | The 10 PSI / 0.69 bar pressure reducer without a compensating bore is our premium CS pressure reducer. |
1 bar | Features a compensating bore to discharge excess water, preventing damage, and is our cost-effective pressure reducer option. | The operating pressure is pre-set to 15 PSI / 1 bar. |
0,5 – 2,5 bar | Perfectly suited for extensive irrigation projects with multiple systems. | The adjustable CS pressure reducer 0.5 to 2.5 bar without compensating bore is our pressure reducer for professional use. |
How pressure reducers work
Pressure reducers regulate and maintain the water pressure in your irrigation system at the set value. Inside the pressure reducer is a spring that only activates when the reducer is installed in the system and backpressure is created by the closed CS soaker hose. Only then is the water pressure effectively reduced—a test with an open outlet will not show regulation. Installation is straightforward: simply connect the pressure reducer to the water source, and it automatically adjusts the pressure to the desired level.

Applications
- Garden irrigation: Ensures even water distribution in beds and lawns.
- Drip irrigation: Prevents overpressure and optimizes water delivery.
- Agriculture: Ideal for large fields and complex irrigation systems to ensure precise water distribution.
- Greenhouses: Regulates pressure for delicate plants and ensures consistent irrigation.
- Parks: Helps stabilize water pressure for large lawns and flower beds.
Tips for optimal use
- Install the pressure reducer directly after the water source to ensure optimal pressure regulation. Regularly check the regulator's function to ensure consistent water delivery. Use the pressure reducer in combination with a filter to avoid impurities and extend its lifespan.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I install a pressure reducer?
The pressure reducer is simply installed between the water source and the irrigation system. Make sure the regulator is properly aligned to ensure optimal pressure regulation. An arrow on the pressure reducer indicates the direction of water flow.
Can the pressure reducer be used in all irrigation systems?
Yes, pressure reducers are versatile and suitable for various irrigation systems such as drip irrigation, soaker hose irrigation, lawn sprinkling, and more.
How often should I check the pressure reducer?
It is recommended to check the regulator at least once a year to ensure it is functioning correctly and has no clogs or damage.
