Wheel Line
Wheel lines are a labor saving portable irrigation system that
has served growers well for many years. They are
set-and-move systems which are stationary for eight 12 or 24
hour sets. Nelson Impact sprinklers model F33 and F33S with
Nelson 3FCN nozzles have been a long-standing reliable
component of a good wheel line. Flow control nozzles provide
a constant flow rate over a wide range of pressure and should
be used when pressure ranges exceed 10% along the wheel
line.

The R2000WF can also be adapted for use on wheel lines if the
spacing is 40 x 50' or closer. The R2000WF provides better
uniformity than impact sprinklers and can be combined with
the Nelson Mini Regulator to lock in flow and uniformity.

New design technologies have enabled the development of
highly uniform sprinklers such as the R2000WF; however any
sprinkler can provide poor coverage if it is not properly
spaced. Have a uniformity analysis completed before you
finalize your spacing, pressure and sprinkler decisions. The
Nelson Overlap Software is able to provide you with the
information you need to get a highly uniform system at a
reasonable cost.
