FITTINGS FOR
DETACHABLE RISERS
WHY DETACHABLE RISERS? Solid set irrigation with Rotators is an
excellent way to irrigate small and irregular shaped fields. However, the process
of moving pipe in and out of the field several times a season is costly and
problematic. Inexpensive yet rigid detachable risers can be quickly and easily
moved out of the way of farming operations, then easily reinstalled when it is
time to irrigate. Now with two sizes of Nelson ACME Adapters, growers can choose
from a wide range of Rotator
®
Sprinkler flow ranges for their specific needs. ACME
Threads allow users to rethread risers while the system is pressurized, and not
cross-thread the risers. The ½” ACME thread is used in 10 Series and 2000 Series
Rotator sprinklers. The new ¾” ACME Threaded fittings are based on the ACME
Thread used in the R33. With these new ¾” ACME Thread fittings, Detachable
Risers can have higher flow rates and be taller than ever before.
A. SHALLOW CULTIVATED CROPS REQUIRE A BURIED DETACHABLE RISER.
B. DETACHABLE RISERS FOR CRANBERRY AND ALFALFA PRODUCTION.
C. SLEEVE-PROTECTED DETACHABLE RISERS IN PASTURES & FORAGE CROPS.
