How to choose nozzles for lawn spraying system

A lawn spraying system is an irrigation system that can control nozzles to spray water on the lawn either automatically or manually, it consists of a water source, piping, valves, nozzles and a control system.
Here are a few things to be aware of when installing the system:

Choose a specialized nozzle

Mainly buried lifting nozzles.
The spraying effect of the buried lifting nozzle is better than that of the normal nozzle, it can meet the water requirements of the irrigation area without affecting the aesthetics of the lawn as well as the need for mechanical operations such as grooming.

Select the right sprinkler and nozzle

Sprinklers are generally divided into small-range diffusion sprinklers (range less than 6 meters), medium-range rotating sprinklers (range between 6 and 15 meters) and large-range rotating sprinklers (range more than 15 meters). The range and flow rate of the same nozzle varies according to the pressure or the equipped nozzle.

Proper nozzle spacing

The spacing between sprinklers is generally the range of the sprinklers. When actually building a lawn spraying system, the spacing is often 0.8 to 1.2 times of the range.

Installation of sprinklers at the edges

The purpose is to ensure the uniformity of irrigation. It should be noted that the installation of sprinklers in marginal areas should be based on the actual terrain to set the spray angle of the sprinklers, such as 180 ° or 90 °.

Installation of matching hinge joints

To prevent the sprinklers from transmitting the pressure from the top to the cross pipe, which may cause damage to the pipe or nozzle. After installation, it is also beneficial to adjust the position of the nozzles when needed.

Pick the same type of sprinklers for the same area of sprinkler pipe.

To ensure that the intensity of sprinkler irrigation is the same throughout the area, choose the same type of nozzles.
