The Sprinkler Effective Application Rate calculator computes the application rate for a sprinkler based on the spacing, nozzle diameter, pressure and an efficiency percentage.
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:
(ND) Nozzle Diameter
(P) Pressure
(SS) Sprinkler Head Spacing
(SLS) Sprinkler Line Spacing
(AE) Efficiency Percentage which accounts for water loss
Sprinkler Effective Application Rate (AR): The calculator returns the application rate in inches per hour. However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.
