Nelson Irrigation debuts micro-sprinkler with modular design

Nelson Irrigation recently introduced a new product, the S7 Spinner, which it said is ideal for irrigation, frost-protection or cooling of a tree or vine crop.

The micro-sprinkler features low-pressure flow regulation (new 7FC flow control nozzles are flow-regulating from 15-50 PSI / 1.0-3.4 bar); quick-clean technology (plugged nozzles are flushed and cleaned in a few seconds); and superior wear-life that is made possible by a stainless steel ball that is affixed to the top of the spin plate.

The S7 is being marketed as the first ever micro-sprinkler with full modularity. It has quick-change color-coded nozzles for easy size or nozzle type changes. But that is not all. The S7 spins with a quarter-turn, quick-connect body that easily adapts to different connection options, including PVC and plastic stakes, or acme and MNPT threads. The highly-visible, heavy-duty PVC stake option protects the spaghetti tubing from animal and machine damage.
