Hunter Industries HEB10 Pc Drip Emitter 1 Gph

Product Description

The HUNTER INDUSTRIES HEB10 is a pressure-compensating (PC) drip emitter designed for low-volume irrigation systems. It delivers a consistent 1 gallon per hour (GPH) output across a wide range of line pressures, making it well suited for sloped terrain and long drip runs where pressure variation would otherwise cause uneven water distribution. The emitter features a 1/2 inch female pipe thread (FPT) base for direct connection to standard drip distribution tubing or fittings. Weighing 0.03 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight component used by landscape irrigation professionals and qualified DIYers during system installation or emitter replacement.

The HEB10 is intended for residential and light commercial drip irrigation applications including landscape beds, tree rings, shrub zones, and row plantings. It connects to 1/2 inch FPT-compatible drip tubing or manifold fittings and is installed directly at the plant emission point. The pressure-compensating design maintains rated flow output without requiring pressure regulators at each emitter station, simplifying system design on sites with grade changes or long lateral runs.

Key Features

• Pressure-compensating output holds a steady 1 GPH across varying line pressures
• 1/2 inch FPT base threads directly onto standard drip fittings and distribution tubing
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds — minimal load on tubing connections
• Compact form factor suited for tight planting bed installations
• Consistent per-emitter flow simplifies irrigation scheduling and system balancing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style drip emitter for use with standard 1/2 inch FPT drip irrigation systems in residential and light commercial landscape applications.

Installation Notes

Irrigation technicians and landscape professionals install drip emitters as part of low-volume irrigation systems. Before replacing or installing emitters, shut off the irrigation zone valve and relieve line pressure. Use a drip emitter installation tool or barbed fitting wrench to seat the FPT base securely without over-torquing the threads. Local irrigation codes and water authority backflow requirements should be reviewed prior to system installation or modification.
