IWS 48 Pot Dripper System

🌱 IWS 48 Pot Dripper System — Guide and Product Information

Overview of the IWS 48 Pot Dripper System

The IWS 48 Pot Dripper System utilises the already successful technology of the IWS Flood and Drain system but uses drippers as its main delivery of nutrients to the plant. This makes it a practical choice for growers who want a structured, large-capacity feeding setup with centralised control and tidy distribution across multiple pots.

Designed around a 48 pot layout, this kit includes the core components needed to build an organised dripper-fed growing system, including the reservoir, pump, filter, timer, controller, pots, pot stands, dripper assemblies and pipework.

Main Benefits for Large Grow Areas

One of the key advantages of this system is that all pots can be connected to the main controller, which will pump away waste nutrients to a desired location out of the growing area. This helps keep the space cleaner and can simplify routine maintenance compared with less integrated feeding layouts.

• ✔ Centralised nutrient delivery across a 48 pot system
• ✔ Designed for efficient dripper-based feeding
• ✔ Helps move waste nutrient solution away from the grow space
• ✔ Suitable for organised multi-pot layouts in indoor growing environments

System Features and Included Components

The minute timer supplied with this system has been specially designed to run the large pumps used in dripper technology, and special stands are supplied for the dripper assemblies. The system also uses leading dripper technology from DIG, allowing 12 flood drippers to run from one location instead of having drippers spread all over the grow area.

The 48 pot kit contains:

• ✔ 350 ltr tank
• ✔ 7000 ltr per hour water pump
• ✔ High pressure filter
• ✔ IWS minute timer and IWS control bucket
• ✔ 48 x outer pots
• ✔ 48 x net pots
• ✔ 48 x IWS pot stands
• ✔ 48 x elbows
• ✔ 48 x t-pieces
• ✔ 8 x 12 outlet dripper assemblies
• ✔ 30 metres of pipe

Suitable Applications

This system is suitable for growers setting up a larger indoor irrigation layout using dripper-fed nutrient delivery. It can be used in media-based growing setups where a central nutrient reservoir, controlled pump operation and managed runoff removal are important for day-to-day consistency.

It sits naturally within our Grow Systems range and is also relevant for growers browsing Grow Kits, Coco Growing Kits or Soil Growing Kits.

• ✔ Media-based growing in coco or soil-style setups

Setup and Usage Tips

Place the reservoir on a stable, level surface and allow enough space around the system for access to the controller, filter and pipe runs. Check that all elbows, t-pieces and dripper assemblies are fitted securely before filling the tank.

Use the minute timer carefully to match the needs of your chosen growing media and environment. It is good practice to test the system with water first, confirm even distribution across all dripper points and make sure the waste nutrient removal route is directed safely to the intended location outside the main growing area.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the IWS 48 Pot Dripper System used for?
It is designed for feeding plants in a 48 pot layout using drippers as the main method of nutrient delivery, with centralised control and waste nutrient removal.

Does this kit include the main components needed to build the system?
Yes. The kit includes the tank, pump, high pressure filter, IWS minute timer, IWS control bucket, pots, pot stands, fittings, dripper assemblies and pipework listed in the specification.

How does the dripper layout help keep the grow area organised?
The DIG dripper technology used in the system allows 12 flood drippers to run from one location, helping reduce the need for drippers spread all over the growing area.

Can waste nutrients be removed from the grow room?
Yes. The pots can be connected to the main controller, which pumps waste nutrients away to a desired location outside the growing area.

Is this system suitable for coco or soil-based growing setups?
It can be used in media-based setups and is listed within both coco and soil growing kit related categories, making it a practical option for growers using those styles of cultivation.
