Abstract: A clog resistant in-line irrigation emitter or nozzle assembly having an emitter structure designed to be inserted into an extruded tube as part of a drip irrigation system. The nozzle assemblies take the high pressure and flow inside the tube and produce a desired flowrate (selectable depending on the requirements of the environment). The emitter of the present disclosure has a higher efficiency than traditional pivot or sprinkler systems or known emitter devices. The emitters not only provide the appropriate pressure attenuation; they resist clogging from the grit and debris in available ground water. The clog resistant in-line irrigation emitter gives a greater pressure attenuation for its physical dimensions than comparable devices and provides an optimal design of a pressure compensating device that improves diaphragm performance. The instant disclosure does allow for the pressure compensation device to be used with various embodiments of a pressure reducing components.
