Full-circle pop-up rotors for lawns

Full-circle pop-up rotors for lawns

Full-circle pop-up rotors distribute water around their entire position with 360-degree coverage. This makes them particularly suitable for larger continuous lawn areas where the sprinkler can be positioned inside the area rather than directly along an edge. With careful planning, you can efficiently irrigate large areas with an automatic lawn irrigation system.

During irrigation, the rotor rises from the ground through water pressure and distributes water across the surrounding lawn. When watering is finished, it retracts into its body and remains almost invisible in the grass. This makes full-circle pop-up rotors a practical solution for permanently installed irrigation systems in gardens and larger green areas.

Even irrigation with 360-degree coverage

A full-circle pop-up rotor irrigates the complete area around its position. This is particularly useful in the centre of larger lawn areas. While part-circle pop-up rotors are ideal along lawn edges and in corners, full-circle rotors can provide efficient coverage of the areas in between.

Combining full-circle and part-circle pop-up rotors allows you to adapt the irrigation layout to the shape of your garden. Position the individual sprinklers so that their watering areas overlap appropriately. This helps provide more even water distribution and reduces the risk of dry areas between sprinklers.

Plan the radius and water flow correctly

When choosing a full-circle pop-up rotor, consider not only the required watering radius but also the available water pressure and flow rate. The greater the required radius and the more sprinklers operating at the same time, the more important it becomes to plan each irrigation zone correctly.

Before installation, check how much water your supply can provide. For larger lawns, several sprinklers can be divided between multiple irrigation zones. Solenoid valves can operate these zones separately, allowing the irrigation controller to water one area after another instead of supplying every sprinkler at the same time.

Installing full-circle pop-up rotors

Full-circle pop-up rotors are connected to the PE pipework of your lawn irrigation system using suitable sprinkler connections. Flexible connecting pipes make it easier to position the rotor accurately and adjust its installation height. Install the sprinkler so that its top is correctly aligned with the finished lawn surface.

After installation, check the watering radius and water distribution and adjust the rotor according to its available settings. Combined with part-circle pop-up rotors, solenoid valves and an irrigation controller, you can build your own complete lawn irrigation system and operate it automatically.
