Hunter PS Series Spray Heads

 

Description:

The PS series is Hunter's "all-in-one" economy spray head. It features a built-in (non-removable) adjustable arc nozzle which means that a single nozzle adjusts from 1-360 degrees. With adjustable arc nozzles a single nozzle can be used for any arc, there is no need to buy separate nozzles for quarter circles, half circles, etc. However when designing remember that the nozzle uses a different amount of water with each arc setting. Thus it is still necessary to guesstimate the arc for each sprinkler when making a design. The performance tables give you the GPM that the nozzles will require when set to the most common arcs. This will assist you in determining what GPM to use for each sprinkler in your design. If the exact arc you plan to use is not shown, just use the value for the next wider arc shown.

Personally, I prefer to be able to remove the nozzles for maintenance or replacement, so if you are looking for an economy sprinkler I would suggest taking a look at the Hunter SRS series rather than this model. The performance is the same, the only difference is that the nozzle on the PS is molded into the riser rather than removable. Plus the SRS has a better body and wiper seal design.
