RKFV17 — 5/8" Drip Tape Flushing Valve End
The RKFV17 flushing valve installs at the end of 5/8" drip tape runs in place of a standard end plug. When the irrigation system is running, the valve seals under pressure, directing all flow through the emitters. When the system shuts off and pressure drops below 5 PSI, the valve opens and releases any accumulated sediment or particulate from the tape. This automatic flushing action extends tape life and reduces clogging in commercial drip systems.
Key Features
- Automatic operation: No manual intervention — seals during irrigation, flushes at shutdown
- 5 PSI seal threshold: Closes reliably under normal drip system operating pressures
- Sediment management: Flushes accumulated particles from the tape at the end of each cycle
- Drop-in replacement: Fits the same 5/8" tape end as a standard RK17 end plug
