Recommended Installation Procedures
The FLX55-6 sprinkler is designed
specifically for turf areas requiring _____
coverage. These products offer the most
economical method of irrigation where flows
and system pressures are available to support
a greater radius.
The FLX55-6 sprinklers should be
specified for installation on a Toro swing
joint. The swing joint should be specified as
a triple-swing type, allowing movement up,
down, laterally and at an angle-to-grade. The
sprinkler should be installed with the body
cover at grade.
Individual sprinkler head control is
accomplished using a single FLX55-6 valve-
in-head sprinkler per controller station. Use
of the valve-in-head model will allow
individual station control, and is particularly
useful for irrigating distinct turf regions at
unique application rates.
FLX55-6 sprinklers are engineered to
provide a smooth, consistent curtain of
water across the arc, with provision made for
head-to-head coverage. For proper spacing,
ensure that system design and installation
accounts for prevailing wind conditions and
body cover angle-to-grade.
It is recommended that sprinklers are
installed 2” (5cm) from hardscaping and 6”-
12” (15,2-30,5cm) from buildings or other
vertical impediments to allow for normal
maintenance procedures and to minimize
overspray on buildings. Where possible,
sprinkler heads should be installed in a
manner that will minimize nozzle stream
contact with trees, controller enclosures,
shrubbery or other obstructions.
