Sprinkler Irrigation Tape: Applications in Landscaping Projects
Release Date:
2021-04-28
Sprinkler irrigation tape can, to a certain extent, address localized water-supply connection issues in a project. It is simple to operate and low-cost; while resolving vegetation-management challenges, it also enhances the survival rate of groundcover plants and improves the landscape effect. As project workloads increase and construction progresses rapidly, localized water-supply problems inevitably arise—such as initial inability to fully cover all water sources and low efficiency of manual watering—along with inherent poor water-retention in the site environment, low maintenance efficiency in the later stages of the project, and suboptimal utilization rates. The easy-to-use, inexpensive sprinkler irrigation tape can effectively address early-stage vegetation-management issues, boost the survival rate of groundcover plants, and
Sprinkler tape To a certain extent, it can resolve the issue of localized water supply connections for the project. Title: Simple operation and low cost; while addressing vegetation management challenges, it also enhances the survival rate of groundcover plants and improves their aesthetic appeal.
As the project workload increases and construction progresses rapidly, localized water-supply issues are inevitable, such as initial insufficient coverage of water sources and low efficiency in manual watering. The site environment itself has poor water retention; Low maintenance efficiency in the project’s later stages; Issues such as low utilization rates.
Easy to operate and made from low-cost materials, spray irrigation tapes can address vegetation management challenges in the early stages of a project, enhance the survival rate of groundcover plants, and improve both management efficiency and landscape quality, thereby safeguarding the project’s overall image. 。
I. Sprinkler tape
Sprinkler irrigation tape is a new type of micro-irrigation equipment, also known as “Micro-sprinkler tape,” “watering tape,” “micro-sprinkler tape,” “watering hose,” “perforated flexible hose,” and the like are widely used.
Thin-wall sprinkler tape is a water-saving micro-sprinkler tubing material that, during the manufacturing of the thin tube, has one side or the middle portion of it... The pinhole outlets of the “bamboo raft” pressure-reducing flow channels are heat-sealed. Wall tubing. Micro-sprinkler systems, typically used for agricultural irrigation, are now also employed in landscape maintenance operations.
Common sprinkler tape sizes: ∅ 32mm ; with a length of 80m , the spray range of the sprinkler tape is 100-120cm。

II. Sprinkler tape characteristics
( 1 ) Working principle:
The rocker-arm sprinkler operates at medium to long ranges, driven by water flow, ensuring stable performance. The reversing mechanism enables spraying in a complete circle or any sector-shaped pattern.
It is mounted on the rocker shaft above the nozzle and equipped with a deflector (water baffle) and a rocker arm with a deflector at its front end. When pressurized water is ejected from the nozzle, it strikes the deflector plate via the guide vane. This generates a tangential driving force on the rocker arm, causing it to rotate around the cantilever by a certain angle. Subsequently, under the action of the torsion spring, the rocker arm returns and strikes the nozzle, inducing another rotational movement of the nozzle. By repeating this cycle, the nozzle can be fully rotated. Circular rotation.
( 2 ) Advantages:
① Longer lifespan, approximately 10 year;
② The spray range can be adjusted flexibly;
③ The shooting range has a large radius and can be adjusted flexibly;
④ Dual functions of wetting the ground and cooling the blade surface;
⑤ Each nozzle can be controlled independently.
( 3 ) Disadvantages:
① Affected by wind and water pressure;
② High water pressure requirements, nozzle susceptibility to clogging, and demanding maintenance;
③ Prone to blind spots;
④ Uneven water discharge can easily lead to localized ponding;
⑤ Higher costs: according to 100m2 Calculation: the material cost is approximately 100-150 Yuan.
