Coverage area

This nozzle is part of the Rain Bird rb-spray series — professional irrigation equipment designed for residential and commercial landscape projects. It delivers precise water distribution across a defined coverage pattern, making it suitable for a variety of zone layouts.

Technical specifications define how this nozzle performs in real-world conditions. The throw radius determines the coverage area a single head can reach, while the flow rate directly affects zone capacity planning and valve sizing. Matching these parameters to your site conditions is essential for an efficient irrigation design.

Coverage pattern depends on the arc angle setting. Full-circle (360°) models provide uniform coverage for open lawn areas and garden beds, while adjustable-arc models are ideal for edges, corners, pathways, and irregularly shaped zones where overspray must be minimized.

When placing this nozzle in your design, use head-to-head spacing (distance between heads equals the throw radius) to achieve uniform precipitation rates across the irrigation zone. This prevents dry spots and overwatered areas, reducing water waste and promoting healthy plant growth.

Compare this model with other nozzles in the rb-spray series to find the best match for your zone dimensions and flow requirements. Different models within the same series share the same precipitation rate, allowing you to mix radii within a single zone.
