5000 Plus Series Full and Reversing
Full/Part Circle Sprinkler
The full and/or part circle sprinkler shall be a
single-stream, water-lubricated, gear-drive type
capable of covering a ___ foot (xx meter) at
___ pounds per square inch (psi) or (bar) with a
discharge rate of ___gallons per minute (___ gpm)
(___ m
3
/h). The sprinkler shall have a ow shut-o
device that is integrated into the ow path of the
rotor as well as adjustable arc coverage of 40 to
360 degrees. Arc adjustment can be performed
with or without the sprinkler in operation and shall
require only a at-blade screwdriver.
The sprinkler shall have a smoothed ow path
entrance to enhance the ow characteristics of the
rotor. In addition, the sprinkler shall feature a ow
path to nozzle bore transition radius to minimize
pressure loss and assure peak nozzle radius is
achieved.
The sprinkler shall have a pressure activated, multi-
function wiper seal that positively seals against the
pop-up stem to keep debris out of the rotor and to
clean debris from the pop-up stem as it retracts.
This wiper seal shall prevent sprinkler from sticking
up, and be capable of sealing the sprinkler cap to
sprinkler body under normal operating pressures.
The sprinkler shall have a screen installed in the
pop-up stem to lter inlet water, protect the drive
from clogging and simplify its removal for cleaning
and ushing of the system. It shall have a 3⁄4”
(FNPT) bottom inlet.
The sprinkler shall have a standard green rubber
cover and a strong stainless steel retract spring for
positive pop down. Pop-up height as measured
from the top of the cap, at normal installation, to
the middle of the nozzle orice shall be __ inches
or __ cm.
The rotor’s overall height shall be ___ inches
(_____cm), with an exposed surface diameter of
15⁄8” (4.1 cm).
The sprinkler shall have 12 interchangeable
nozzles: 8 Rain Curtain nozzles for superior
coverage and, 4 Low Angle nozzles for reduced
radius of throw and superior wind resistance with
all nozzles containing Micro-Ramp™ for superior
close-in watering. The angle of trajectory shall
be 25 degrees for the Rain Curtain nozzles and 10
degrees for the low angle nozzles. The sprinkler
shall come with a stainless steel adjusting screw
capable of reducing the radius up to 25%.
The sprinkler shall be as manufactured by Rain Bird
Corporation, Glendora, California.
