Zusammenfassung:An apparatus for supporting and forcibly discharging flexible irrigation fluid bags under controlled pressure includes a body having a recess formed therein slightly inclined to the vertical and cooperating with brackets at the lower end of the recess to support and retain a bag therein and wherein the bag discharge conduits depend from the body between the brackets. A door is hinged to the body and movable to a closed position for engaging the bag during forcible deflection of the bag to discharge fluid therefrom. An inflatable bladder is supported in the recess in the body and is connected to a source of pressure air at a cylindrical ported plug and providing for disconnection of the bladder from the plug in response to an overpressure condition. Pressure air is supplied to the inflatable bladder by way of a control circuit including a rapid opening high volume air supply and exhaust valve for quickly venting the inflation chamber.
