ALL THE BENEFITS OF UNDERGROUND IRRIGATION,
EVEN FOR SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED GARDENS.

The Colibrì® System is not just about watering gardens. It's an original concept by Claber that combines the convenience, efficiency and water-saving benefits of underground irrigation with the ease of installation of a micro-sprinkler system.

The system includes everything you need to install a tailor-made solution: no need to dig or wire. From the hose to the couplings, to the pop-up micro-sprinklers, everything has been designed by Claber to ensure uniform irrigation with a 360°, 180° or 90° coverage.

Entirely designed and made in Italy, the Colibrì® System has achieved amazing worldwide success. And now it is even more versatile and easier to use thanks to the new tool-free jet range adjustment: you just need two fingers.

This "underground micro-sprinkler" system operates at low water pressure and can cover a garden up to 200 m2 with a ½” hose and couplings, and a two-way battery-operated timer. For gardens up to 450 m2, choose Hydro-4, the innovative box with built-in timer and solenoid valves to manage up to 4 independent lines with 20mm hose and couplings.

Made in Italy

TESTED ON THE FIELD

The performance of the Colibrì® System pop-up micro-sprinklers have been tested at the Water Academy. A research centre surrounded by greenery and set up in an 18th century hydroelectric power plant, where new ideas for efficient and environmentally sustainable irrigation come to light every day.

IDEAL FOR DIY

The Colibrì® System has been specifically designed for DIY users: it does not require special tools, it is simple and quick to install and you can use it to create your own tailor-made system, thanks to a comprehensive range of components. We also have a Starter Kit with everything you need to set up a system for a 50 m2 garden in a convenient pack with user instructions.

COLIBRÌ MICRO-SPRINKLERS. IN THEIR OWN SMALL WAY, THEY GUARANTEE THE MOST UNIFORM IRRIGATION.

EXCLUSIVE DESIGN AND TOTAL EFFICIENCY

Thanks to the exclusive gear-driven turbine with jet intercepting head, the Colibrì® pop-up micro-sprinklers ensure uniform irrigation across lawns and flowerbeds and reduce water consumption.

Made with a strong ABS body, stainless steel inner spring, self-lubricating clutch and watertight seal installed without any water leaks, our Colibrì® micro-sprinklers ensure efficiency and durability over time.

A special washable filter removes any impurities from the water, ensuring that the turbine works properly. Plus, thanks to the frost-resistant device, Colibrì® micro-sprinklers can be safely left outside in winter to start watering again in spring.

THREE MODELS TO COVER EVERY NEED

By combining the three different Colibrì® micro-sprinkler models, with a 360° (64 m2), 180° (35 m2) and 90° (20 m2) coverage, your irrigation will be uniform, without wasting water in any kind of green area.

NEW: EASY JET RANGE ADJUSTMENT

With the new jet range adjustment ring nut, you can easily obtain a tailor-made irrigation in any small garden by combining sprinklers with different coverages without wasting even a drop of water.

DESIGN & INSTALL YOUR SYSTEM

+USER DESIGN GUIDE

+INSTALLATION GUIDE

USER DESIGN GUIDE

Xclose
  • 1

    To design a made-to-measure Colibrì® System you just need a sheet of squared paper, a pencil and a compass.

  • 2

    First, draw a scale plan of your garden on the squared paper.

  • 3

    Then use the compass to trace the circles or circle sections corresponding to the areas you want to water. To achieve better results, put 90° sprinklers in the corners.

  • 4

    Place 180° sprinklers near the perimeter of the garden and the house.

  • 5

    Fill empty areas with the 360° sprinklers.

  • 6

    To complete the project, join the sprinklers in a line, simulating a hose to determine its length. Make sure the sum of the water consumption values does not exceed the available flow rate.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

Xclose
  • 1

    Plant the stakes to mark the position of each micro-sprinkler.

  • 2

    Then connect them with a piece of string to mark the route of the ½” or 20mm hose

  • 3

    Use a spade to trace a slot along the length of the route: there is no need to dig, just rock the blade back and forth in the soil.

  • 4

    Connect the 1/2” or 20mm hose to the battery-operated timer and unroll it along the route up to the first stake.

  • 5

    Cut the hose with a pair of heavy-duty scissors and insert it into the T-shaped threaded coupling. Screw the micro-sprinkler onto the coupling and fix it temporarily to the stake with some insulating tape.

  • 6

    Repeat until the entire underground micro-sprinkler circuit has been completed. Finish the system with the drainage valve at the end of the circuit.

  • 7

    Turn on the water and make sure the micro-sprinklers cover the whole the garden.

  • 8

    To adjust the length of the jet, just turn the red ring with your fingers. To vary the direction of the jet (90° or 180°), turn the black rod by keeping the body of the sprinkler still.

  • 9

    Lay the hose with the micro-sprinklers in the ground and remove the stakes.

  • 10

    Walk over the soil to press it down.

  • 11

    Your Colibrì® System is ready!

THE WIDEST MICRO-SPRINKLER RANGE
FOR EVERY PLANT

With micro-sprinklers you can save water, an increasingly precious natural resource, and you can save money, guaranteeing that the right amount of water reaches your plants, without waste due to evaporation or standing water.

Claber has created the widest range of components and accessories to make your own ideal micro-sprinkler system in terms of size and performance, for gardens, terraces, flowerbeds, balconies and vegetable gardens.

Compression connectors and fittings that, together with the ½” hose, help you easily make your own perfectly watertight, tailor-made system without the need of tools.

Adjustable drippers to provide the right amount of water to each plant according to the climate, soil and needs of that specific plant, watering the area near the roots.

Micro-sprinklers that water plants with an effect similar to rain, either over a rectangular area, with a 360°, 180° or 90° coverage or micro-mist sprayers.
