The mini valve used in the drip irrigation system is a small valve located on the irrigation pipe.
  
Mini valves are parts of the drip irrigation system used to close or open the desired area in the pipeline.
  
Thanks to the mini valve, the drip irrigation system ensures that the water goes to the correct and desired areas. In addition, the mini valve plays a major role in distributing equal amounts of water to each plant, preventing water waste and determining the direction of water flow.
Mini Valve Models
As Serdrip, we produce mini valves in two series. Mini valve models are as follows;
  
Nile Series Mini Valves
  
Serdrip Series Mini Valves
What to Consider in Mini Valve Installation?
The installation of mini valves positioned on drip irrigation hoses may vary according to the needs of the plants and the characteristics of the soil. The intervals of mini valves are determined according to the distances of the plant arrangements, the diameter of the irrigation hose, the flow rate of the water in the drip irrigation system and the water retention capacity of the soil.
Other points to be considered in the installation of mini valves are as follows;
  
The mini valve should be positioned correctly and the plants should be provided with the correct water they need.
  
In the installation of the mini valve, attention should be paid to the flow direction of the water. In the installation of the mini valve without determining the flow direction, the water flow cannot be done correctly and the irrigation efficiency decreases.
  
The appropriate mini valve should be selected by paying attention to the diameter measurements of the pipes in the drip irrigation system.
  
The mini valve model should be preferred by taking into account the pressure of the water in the system.
  
It should be ensured that the mini valve is leak-proof.
  
Periodic maintenance of the installed mini valves is necessary.
  
A faulty or clogged mini valve should be cleaned and replaced if necessary.
