Spray Nozzles

Features

Additional orifice for close-in watering minimizes brown spots around the spray head and eliminates gaps in coverage so the entire watering area is more uniformly covered
Superior coverage for efficient watering. Use up to 30% less water
Matched precipitation rate with Rain Bird HE-VAN and MPR nozzle
Five-year trade warranty

Specifications

Spacing: 5 to 15 feet (1.7 to 4.6 m)*
Pressure: 15 to 30 psi (1.0 to 2.1 bar)
Optimum pressure: 30 psi (2.1 bar)**
* These ranges are based on proper pressure at nozzle
** Rain Bird recommends using 1800/RD1800 PRS Spray Bodies to maintain optimum nozzle performance in higher pressure situations

Model Listing

  • U-8 Series: 8-foot Quarter, Half, Full nozzles
  • U-10 Series: 10-foot Quarter, Half, Full nozzles
  • U-12 Series: 12-foot Quarter, Half, Full nozzles
  • U-15 Series: 15-foot Quarter, Half, Full nozzles

    • Features

    HE-VAN’s even coverage allows you to shorten run times by up to 35%, saving you water and money, while still maintaining a healthy lawn
    HE-VAN has more than a 40 percent even-coverage improvement over existing variable arc nozzles
    HE-VAN nozzles have a unique stream pattern, designed for superior coverage and wind resistance
    Low-trajectory spray and large water droplets prevent misting and airborne evaporation, so the right amount of water is delivered to the right place
    Gentle close-in watering eliminates dry spots around the spray head
    HE-VAN nozzles throw to the exact specified radius, delivering the cleanest edge of any VAN on the market today
    Reduced zone run times, compared to competitive nozzles, help stay within tight watering windows, conserve water, and save money
    With full adjustability from 0° to 360°, you'll be able to efficiently water landscapes of all shapes, while saving time and stocking fewer nozzles
    Matched precipitation rates allow you to install Rain Bird HE-VAN, MPR, and U-Series nozzles on the same zone
    HE-VAN nozzles have a tactile click to keep the arc setting from drifting over time
    Three-year trade warranty

    Distribution Uniformity (DULQ): DU in irrigation is a measure of how uniformly water is applied to the area being watered. DULQ is calculated by taking the volume in the lowest quarter of catch can measurements and dividing it by the average volume of all catch can measurements. Scheduling Coefficient (SC): SC is a measure of how long a zone must be run in order to provide adequate water to the driest spot.
