Sprinklers

The Mini is preferred at sites where water and pressure is low. Water of minimum 10m3/hour should be delivered through hydrant at 3.5 bar. It operates with water of maximum 20m3/hour. It has Atom28 irrigation gun on it. Maximum traveling distance is 150 meters. When the irrigation gun revolves one full turn, its effective irrigation distance is maximum 150 meters. Maximum irrigation width is 50 meters. It is mostly used for pitches. Furthermore, it may also be used for irrigation of parks, gardens and small agricultural fields. Minimum recommended pumping power is 5.5 LP. Hose drum winding manually is on it.

Highly efficient sprinklers rotating in full circles or partial circle, impact-type, operating at medium pressure (2.0 – 4 atm) Thanks to replaceable sprinkler ends and double-hole water outlet, it ensures you to irrigate your field with uniform water distribution. You may use it for irrigation of any kind of field crops and vegetables. It is appropriate for use with stationary and traveling systems. It may also be used for industrial applications, e.g. at the road edges mines, construction sites and for dust suppression. Thanks to the blind plug that comes with the system as standard, the second hole can be plugged for near-distance irrigation. As it is, it can also be operated with less water.

Atom14 is a new model, It is developed as a result of its R&D activities for the last 3 years. Atom14 models have special body construction at 25 degrees minimizing wind effect. As it is with all products the sprinklers are made of 100% original raw material. Engineering plastics and professional additives are used to eliminate adverse effects of water and sun to serve for long years.

A new and licensed version that Yüzüak Makina developed as a result of its R&D activities the last 2 years. It has a special body construction with two different water spray angles of 22 and 27 degrees. Furthermore, it has an adjustable rotation speed. The sprinkler head is designed to operate with both body angles. Water outlet of 22ᵒ o is recommended for windy conditions. In this way it may spray the water at lower height minimizing wind effect. At the sites subject to normal wind you may use a body angle of 27ᵒ for optimum irrigation. It is made of 100% original raw material. Engineering plastics and professional additives are used to eliminate adverse effects of water and sun to serve for long years.
