Features

• The covered collector is made from super durable HDPE (high density polyethylene).
• Flexible tubing every 10' connects the covered collector to the main return pipe.
• Aluminum rivets are used to join materials, no rust.

Benefits

• The sliding bench NFT system (where channels move freely on the support benches) is superior to other methods as channels are easily moved to accommodate different sized crops. There are no fittings to clog or prevent movement as in other systems.   Channels are one piece, both ends are open.
• The covered collector is made from HDPE, a recyclable material, easy to clean, super durable.
• HDPE pipe is co-extruded, white on the outside to reflect light, black on the inside to deter algae growth.
• Once channels are inserted in collector, the cover retains it’s position making it easy to move channels in and out as well as prevent splashing.
• Downspouts at every 10’ move the nutrient solution quickly from the collector back to the nutrient reservoir. This feature minimizes the amount of nutrient in the collector at any one time and rushes it down to the insulated return pipe minimizing temp gain or temp loss.
• Neoprene washers under the collector pipe in the end cap and downspout attachment points assure of NO LEAKS. Aluminum rivets are used to insure a secure connection.

Specifications
