This system is designed to run from a tank. Pumps can also
be fitted with foot valves and strainers to allow pumps
to operate from a pond or lagoon. Different seals can be
fitted to the pump to allow the pump to handle dirtier water.
The system provides good coverage of a road 10 meters wide
by 90 meters long. Wider coverage is possible by fitting
larger sprinklers with larger throws. Optimum coverage can
be determined by fitting different sized sprinklers in yards
of irregular sizes.
Large capacity rain guns are also available to cover larger
areas and variable angle of high trajectory rain guns to
cover stockpiles.
Larger capacity sprinklers will require larger volumes of
water to achieve greater throws and will also require larger
pumps and pipe work to operate.
Wind direction and speed will affect coverage of sprinklers
and must be taken into account when positioning sprinklers.
All systems are tailor-made to suit the customer's application
and only basic site layout information is required for this.
