26 Rainger Linear
OVERVIEW
Water Application
A sprinkler chart provides the operator with informa-
tion about water application depths and pass times at
different percent timer settings.
Water is applied to the field through the sprinklers.
Sprinklers can be mounted on top of the pipeline
or on drop tubes that hang below the pipeline. See
Figure 26-1.
Side Load Safety Box
The side load safety box will shut down the machine
if the span gets out of alignment with the linear cart.
The side load safety box location varies depending
on the type of Rainger Linear cart.
• If Rainger linear center or end feed cart, the side
load safety box is located on the first span pipe.
See Figure 26-2.
• If Rainger linear swing around cart, the side load
safety box is located on the Rainger Linear cart.
See Figure 26-3.
See Maintenance section for adjustment procedure.
Span Cable
A cable with color coded wires enters and leaves
each tower box. The cable runs the entire length of
the machine and is referred to as span cable. See
Figure 26-4.
The span cable can carry multiple voltages includ-
ing high voltage depending on control panel and the
country of use.
Intermediate Tower Boxes
The intermediate tower control boxes provide power
to the center drive gear motors depending on the
tower box position in relationship to the next tower in
the system. See Figure 26-4.
Last Tower Box
The last tower control box provides power to the
center drive gear motor depending on the percent
timer setting at the control panel. It also completes
the safety circuit. See Figure 26-4.
