The MP rotator provides the crucial ability to water small areas normally covered by pop-up spray heads, and to do this at a precipitation rate that is matched to typical rotor sprinklers. It is normally an extremely poor design practice to install pop-up spray sprinklers on the same station as rotor sprinklers due to the widely different precipitation rates between spray and rotor sprinklers. The MP Rotator has, however, been specifically designed with this application in mind. By matching the precipitation rate of typical rotors, the MP Rotator has made it practical to add those small problem areas that are tough to cover with rotors, yet keep those sprinklers on the same station as your rotors. In many cases this can save long runs of pipe or dedicated stations which result from small odd-shaped areas in the landscape located near large areas being irrigated by rotors. Sometimes, the use of only one or two of these MP Rotator nozzles can eliminate an additional station, resulting in savings on valves and allowing the use of smaller controllers.
I would recommend this application of rotor because of its high efficency and great coverage advantages. The MP Rotator® sprinkler is the intelligent choice for irrigation because it offers design, performance and cost advantages over sprays and single-stream, short-range rotors. The high-uniformity, low-application rate MP Rotator is also the most efficient, water-saving sprinkler in its class. The MP1000, MP2000, and MP3000 can be combined on the same station because they all maintain matched precipitation, even after arc and radius adjustment. This provides a new level of design and installation flexibility for turf and landscape irrigation. If you have any questions contact us at: http://www.arborlife.com/contact.html
