Uniformity is calculated for specific areas defined as Field, Strips, and Trees. Field includes everything,
Strips are bands (for this example 6'
(1.8 m)
wide) that encompass the trees, and trees are circles
(6'
(1.8 m)
in diameter for this example) that represent theoretical root zones.

Mini Regulator (MR)
— For systems in which pressure ranges are excessive, the Nelson Mini
Regulator provides uniform flow and distribution at each R10/R10T through pressure regulation.
Choose from 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 PSI (2.0, 2.4, 2.8, 3.1 or 3.4 BAR) nominal pressures.
Mini Regulator Drain Check (MRDC)
— To eliminate sprinkler drizzle during shut down and
start up and for pressure regulation use the Nelson Mini Regulator Drain Check. It is available
in the same nominal pressures as the Mini Regulator.
Mini Drain Check (MDC)
— The MDC is a check valve only that opens 2-5 PSI (.14-.35
BAR) below the nominal pressure rating. Available in 20 and 35 PSI (1.4-2.4 BAR) options.
Ideal when a check feature only is needed or when it is necessary to operate the R10/R10T
at different pressures that best suit environmental conditions.
