Description
Everything needed to build, expand or refurbish a 9mm AutoPot module
The AutoPot Module Accessory Pack brings together the parts to build, expand or refurbish a single AutoPot watering module on a 9mm system, built around the latest AQUAvalve5. Choose the pack for a 1Pot tray, or the XL FlexiPot or XXL50 pack, which also include a fresh fabric FlexiPot and its PotSock. AutoPot's gravity-fed design waters automatically with no pumps, timers or electricity, feeding each plant only when it has taken up the previous fill. Ideal for hydroponics, coco and soil in grow tents and grow rooms.

Inconsistent watering stressing your plants?
Uneven watering causes slow growth, poor nutrient uptake and unnecessary plant stress. This pack restores or extends your irrigation so each plant is fed only when needed - the AQUAvalve5 regulates flow automatically, preventing both overwatering and underwatering while encouraging stronger roots and better yields.
How to Use
- Install the AQUAvalve5 into your AutoPot tray per the supplied instructions.
- Connect the 9mm pipe and fittings to your existing AutoPot line.
- Fit the root control – the Marix disc in the pot and the root control disc in a 1Pot tray, gold face up, or the PotSock on the base of a FlexiPot – and keep a filter on the reservoir outlet so water flows clean and unrestricted.
- Connect the module to your nutrient reservoir, raised so its outlet sits at least 15 cm above the AQUAvalve5.
- Once filled, let the AQUAvalve5 regulate irrigation automatically to plant demand.
- Clean the filters and inspect the valve periodically for trouble-free running.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which pack do I need?
Match the pack to your tray: the 1Pot (15L) pack fits a standard 1Pot tray and supplies the valve, pipe, discs and connectors; the XL FlexiPot pack fits the round XL tray and the XXL50 pack an XXL tray, and both of those include a new fabric FlexiPot with its PotSock.
Will it fit my older AutoPot system?
These packs are the AQUAvalve5 versions for 9mm and 16-9mm pipe and fittings. Systems bought before August 2020 run 6mm pipe and the original AQUAvalve, so check which valve and pipe your system uses before ordering.
Is a filter or tank connector included?
No. Each pack covers one module; the filter and tank connection belong to the reservoir. Use a 9mm golf filter and top hat grommet on a rigid tank, or a 16-9mm click-fit adaptor and filter on a FlexiTank.
