Introduction
Rain Bird R-VAN Adjustable Rotary Nozzles provide
water efficiency and design flexibility. R-VAN Adjustable
Rotary Nozzles feature rotating stream technology which
uniformly delivers water at a low precipitation rate,
significantly reducing runoff and erosion. Retrofitting
standard spray nozzles with R-VAN Adjustable Rotary
Nozzles can reduce flow by up to 60% and improve water
efficiency by up to 30%. Nozzle spray pattern and distance
are easily adjusted by hand with no tools required.
