Mar 13, 2017Nelson releases new tan bubble-wide plate
The Tan Bubble-Wide plate from Nelson Irrigation is now available. The new plate can be used for low energy precision applications in the 6-10 psi range (0.4 bar-0.7 bar), according to the company.
This plate fits the legacy A3000/D3000 sprinklers and the new A3030/D3030 sprinklers (with the 3NV Nozzle). This configuration creates a wider dome of water than standard straight down bubblers providing full coverage irrigation, according to Nelson. It can be used with a #9 nozzle up to a #30 nozzle. Space from 30″ to 60″.
This pattern treats the soil better and can increase efficiencies by reducing wind drift and evaporation versus standard Spray plates, according to Nelson.
