Which Crops Can You Irrigate With Rain Gun Sprinklers?
A set up of rain gun sprinklers stands tall on a farm with the sprinkler head releasing water to higher heights and wide throw distances.
Therefore, the device is often meant for tall crops and wide areas as it can cover a large area over a short time.

- Corn – corn fields are often big and require a lot of water for maximum productivity. You can set up to 3 portable 2-inch rain guns to work on your acre of cornfield.

Components of a Rain Gun Sprinkler System
Pump: For achieving high pressure that is crucial for rain gun sprinklers to work. Depends on the pressure and water needs.
Water Supply Pipe: Use a pipe that is compatible with the pumps and sprinkler head, either PE pipes or Soft Hose pipes.
Support Stands: Tripod stands made of steel to anchor the Rain Gun sprinkler into place and prevent falling during irrigation action.
Fittings and Accessories: Rain Guns require a variety of fittings and accessories such as Pipe connectors.
Water Filters: Screen filters are also ideal for the removal of debris in the sprinkler irrigation system.
How to Design and Install Rain Gun Sprinkler
It is important to understand the pressure and flow rates of the sprinkler head before installing it. The essence is to prevent irrigation problems.
Water not coming out of the sprinkler head, insufficient flow rates or the sprinkler head not covering the expected area are some issues possible.
Another thing to learn is the soil structure of your farm as they describe the water needs and the best irrigation method to use.
The pump to use in your sprinkler irrigation system is sized by consideration of the features of the sprinkler head such as pressure and flow rate. The ideal water pump to use needs to have twice the flow rate and head of the Rain Gun sprinkler.
How to Install a Rain Gun Sprinkler
- Screw the Rain Gun Sprinkler head to the tripod stand while keeping the stand firm and upright.
- Attach the Rain Gun Sprinkler to the delivery pipe on the sprinkler inlet. Ensure that the connection is tight and secure enough.
- Adjust the sprinkler head to a desired radius of flow.
- Start the water pump to check whether the sprinkler head and entire system work.
Which is better Rain Guns or Impact Sprinklers?

Rain Gun Connection also uses fewer components per acre compared to sprinklers.
Therefore, it is cheaper to irrigate with rain gun sprinklers compared to sprinkler heads.
Advantages of Rain Gun Sprinklers
- Rain Guns use less energy and can last longer
- Minimum Labor need and thus low cost as it uses fewer pipe connections due to the surface running of pipes
- The precipitation varies with the nozzle size, but unlike conventional jets, overlapping is not necessary.
- Low time is taken to water the fields as it provides heavy throws covering a large and wide area.
- Crops can be irrigated using rain guns to enhance production during dry seasons
- The jets are rugged and only require periodic greasing. Ease of installation, assembly, and maintenance
- The trajectory of the throw of water is such that the damage to pepper vines is negligible.
- Part circle adjustments, save surface run-off water from escaping to the nearby fields.
- Full wetting due to backup nozzles available in the rain gun sprinkler head.
