Environmental Control Through Irrigation

FC² Flow Control Nozzles for ¾" Base Sprinklers

(¼ - 18 NPT)

The Problem:

The Solution:

Sprinklers irrigating uneven terrain or flat graound, but with long laterals often times operate with pressure variations of as much as 40 psi. This can result in flow rate variations of 30% or more. Such extemes in application rates will result in over irrigation of the higher pressure areas and possible under irrigation of the lower pressure areas. This lack of uniformity wastes water and reduces yields.

Weather Tec is introducing its all new FC² flow control sprinkler nozzles as an answer to the wasteful and yield compromising problem of uneven water pressure.

Check out these features of our new flow control nozzles:

  • Maintain a nearly constant flow rate from 35 to 100 psi.
     
  • Water stream is as free of turbulance as a straight bore nozzle. No loss of radius of throw and no reduction in sprinkler drive.
  • The Weather Tec FC² flow control diaphragms are made of a special blend of oven cured polyurethane that has incredible flexibility, memory, and durability. More resistant to abrasion than brass.
