The multi-function 3NV nozzle includes built-in flush, line flush, and shutoff - no tools required. This unit ships with the #18 Gray plate and nozzle (9/64") for 2.9-4.6 GPM at 40-65 PSI (2.75-4.5 bar).
The Nelson R33-NV Rotator is a 3/4" male pipe thread sprinkler designed to replace traditional brass impact sprinklers in solid-set, portable, wheel line, and permanent irrigation systems. It delivers longer throw distance, better uniformity, and superior wind resistance with less maintenance than impact sprinklers. This unit includes the #18 Gray plate and nozzle (9/64"), delivering 2.9-4.6 GPM over a 39-43 ft (12-13 m) coverage radius at 40-65 PSI (2.75-4.5 bar).
Key Features and Benefits
Superior uniformity and wind resistance - Rotator mechanism slows at intervals while the nozzle rotates rapidly, filling out the spray pattern and minimizing wind drift
Multi-function 3NV nozzle - Built-in nozzle flush, line flush, and shutoff functions without tools or nozzle removal
No bronze wear parts - Eliminates the maintenance and replacement cycle of traditional brass impacts
No riser vibration - Smooth rotation reduces wear on risers, fittings, and pipe
Theft and damage resistant - Low scrap value and durable construction reduce losses compared to brass sprinklers
Optional Road Guard - Snap-on accessory converts to part-circle operation for border rows and pathways
3/4" MNPT connection - Direct thread onto standard 3/4" risers
Ideal Applications
Overhead irrigation in nursery, tree, vine, small fruit, and berry crops
Portable setups, wheel lines, and solid-set systems
Mining site irrigation, revegetation, and specialty environments
