  • Self-aligning nozzles
  • Installation and Maintenance

    • Slip clutch mechanism for quick adjustment on installation
    • Faster maintenance with a new self-cleaning arc adjustment screw
    • The 5000 Plus features a flow shut-off device to stop the flow of water to a particular head while the system is still in operation
    • Top-adjust arc adjustment requiring only a flathead screwdriver
    • Radius adjustment screw allows up to 25% radius reduction without changing nozzles

    Optional PRS Feature

    • In-stem pressure regulator (PRS) reduces operating pressure to 45 psi (3,1 bar) for optimal nozzle performance
    • PRS saves water by:
      • Eliminating head-to-head pressure variations
      • Eliminating misting due to high pressure
      • Improving nozzle distribution uniformity by operating the nozzle at optimum pressure
    • Maintenance-free design can be easily retrofitted into existing 5000/5000+, T-Bird and Hunter PGP (using UPG model) rotor cases without digging up the entire body
    • Pressure: 25-65 psi (1,7 to 4,5 bar)
