What makes the TG101 better! Large Radius “Gun Style” Sprinkler
Innovative: Self-Adjusting Brake System • Self-adjusting brake system adapts its brake force to the system water pressure - the competition does not • Benefits • Steady gun-rotation speed regardless of nozzle-pressure range • Excellent distribution performance over the entire operating range
Better Distribution: The Drive System • Innovative drive system for an excellent water stream diffusion • Benefits • Slow rotation speed in both directions for a consistent and smooth operation with less vibration • Improves water uniformity, even under different pressures • Helps reduce run-off and over-watering • Operates at lower pressures with a range from 30 PSI to 110 PSI ( 2 to 7 bars ) • Saves water and money
Better Distribution: Advanced Stream Diffusion • Produces a fan spray at start-up helping to minimize soil erosion and puddling • Benefits: • Better water pattern over the entirethrow radius of the gun • Better water pattern close to the gun due to effective stream diffusion at all pressures • Helps control erosion
Better Distribution: Dynamic Jet-Breaker • The Intermittent Dynamic Jet-Breaker deflects only about 10% of water stream: • Benefits: • Saves energy and lowers operating costs through lower operating pressures • Optimizes water distribution by breaking up the water stream with an intermittent blade especially at lower pressures • Does Not affect distance of throw • Recommended on solid-set systems
Better Distribution: Adjustable Rotation Speed Features: • Three selectable speeds that adjust the frequency of the drive arm • Slower drive arm frequency, the more water away from the gun • Water stream is broken up less frequently • Faster drive arm frequency, the more water closer to the gun • Water stream is broken up more frequently Benefits: • Adds flexibility to water distribution pattern to accommodate specific requirements Speed Adjustment
Better Distribution: Slow Reverse • Benefits: • Slow steady rotation with greatly reduced vibration • Suitable for all irrigation systems and applications
+33% TORO TG101 Typical 2” Gun Nelson SR100 Rain Bird SR3003 - 33% - 40% Nelson SR100 Rain Bird SR3003 TORO TG101 Nelson SR75 Better Performance: Larger Barrel • The TG101 features the largest barrel cross section in its category. • Benefits: • 33% larger barrel cross section • Hydraulically optimized shape of the straightening vanes • Produces hydraulically-optimized flow pattern • The water throw and distribution are unique for this category of product
Better Performance: Nozzle Design A Better Nozzle Design! Benefits: • Resilient wear-resistant polymer nozzles • Perform better than aluminum nozzles used by the competition • The only repair part that customers should carry • Less expensive than competition • Two standard nozzle options: .63” and .87” ( 16mm and 22mm ) • Additional range of nozzles available for speciality applications
Quality: Built to Last • The TG101 is built to last with quality materials and construction. • Constructed with: • High-grade Aluminum • Composites specially designed for strength and durability • Tested to withstand the harsh usage of irrigation applications
Better Performance: No Maintenance • Benefits of TG101 Design: • No ball bearings • Competition uses ball bearings, which can seize at contact with moisture, cause failure and result in expensive repairs • No grease or oil needed • No tools required • All adjustments can be done by hand • Modular Design • Damaged parts are easily repaired • Lower part costs and pricing than competition
Typical Usage: Sports Field Application • Benefits of TG101 Usage • Irrigation from the perimeter of sports fields • No rotors in playing field • No hoses, reels, or equipment on edges of the field when pole-mounted • Cooling • Artificial turf can reach 140°-160°F ( 60o-70oC ) when outside temperature reaches 75°-85°F ( 25o-30ºC) • General Maintenance • Cleaning of dust and debris off the field • Stabilization of the Infill • Reduces migration
Typical Installation TG101 has a 2” NPT / 2” BSP female thread 3” galvanized pipe 7 ft / 2 m above ground Concrete thrust block
