Rain Bird R-VAN Rotary Nozzles for lawn and garden irrigation. Rotating streams deliver even coverage, with large droplets that help resist wind drift. Water is applied more slowly than with traditional spray nozzles, giving the soil more time to absorb it. The pull-up flushing feature helps clear debris. Sprinkler body sold separately.

✓ Coverage: Radius ranges from 2.4 to 7.3 metres; rectangular strip patterns available
✓ Spray Pattern: Adjustable part-circle, fixed full-circle and rectangular strip patterns
✓ Flow: Varies by nozzle model, pressure and arc setting
✓ Recommended Pressure: 310 kPa
✓ Compatibility: Female nozzle thread suits Rain Bird 1800 sprinkler bodies

Rain Bird R-VAN Rotary Nozzles for lawn and garden irrigation.

Rotating streams deliver even coverage, with large droplets that help resist wind drift. Water is applied more slowly than with traditional spray nozzles, giving the soil more time to absorb it. UV-resistant construction and a stainless steel protective cap provide durability.

Radius ranges from 2.4 to 7.3 metres. The range includes adjustable part-circle, fixed full-circle and rectangular strip patterns.

Adjustments can be made by hand while the sprinkler is running. Full-circle and strip patterns remain fixed. The pull-up flushing feature helps clear debris, and the mesh filter can be removed for cleaning.

Female nozzle thread suits Rain Bird 1800 sprinkler bodies. Sprinkler body sold separately. The nozzle can also be used with matching shrubhead adaptors where pop-up is not required, typically installed on top of a riser.

Precipitation rate describes how quickly water is applied across the area, measured in millimetres per hour.
R-VAN family rate: Approximately 16mm/hour with square spacing. Match nozzle precipitation rates and layout on a shared irrigation zone.

Warranty: Three-year trade warranty.

✓ Product Type and Application
Rain Bird R-VAN Rotary Nozzles for lawn and garden irrigation.
A rotary nozzle fits onto a compatible sprinkler body and sends out streams of water that rotate across the watering area.

✓ Watering Performance and Benefits
Rotating streams provide even coverage, with large droplets that help resist wind drift. Slower water application than traditional spray nozzles gives soil more time to absorb water. UV-resistant construction and a stainless steel protective cap provide durability.

✓ Coverage and Spray Pattern
Radius ranges from 2.4 to 7.3 metres; rectangular strip patterns available.
Adjustable part-circle, fixed full-circle and rectangular strip patterns.
Radius is the distance from the sprinkler to the outer edge of a circular watering pattern. Strip dimensions show total width × length. Coverage values are before radius or distance reduction.

✓ Pressure & Flow
Recommended operating pressure: 310 kPa.
Flow varies with nozzle model, pressure and adjustment. Adjustable-nozzle flow also varies with the arc setting. Individual product pages provide model-specific coverage and flow.

✓ Arc Adjustment
The spray arc is how far around the sprinkler the water sprays.
Adjust the spray arc of part-circle models by hand while the sprinkler is running. Full-circle and strip models have fixed spray patterns.

✓ Radius Reduction
Adjust watering distance by hand while the sprinkler is running. Do not reduce R-VAN14 below 2.4 metres, R-VAN18 below 4.0 metres or R-VAN24 below 5.2 metres.

✓ Precipitation Rate
Precipitation rate describes how quickly water is applied across the area, measured in millimetres per hour.
R-VAN family rate: Approximately 16mm/hour with square spacing. Match nozzle precipitation rates and layout on a shared irrigation zone.

✓ Flushing and Filtration
Pull up on the nozzle top to flush debris while water is running. The mesh filter can be removed for cleaning.

✓ Connection and Compatibility
Female nozzle thread suits Rain Bird 1800 sprinkler bodies. Sprinkler body sold separately. The nozzle can also be used with matching shrubhead adaptors where pop-up is not required, typically installed on top of a riser.

✓ Warranty
Three-year trade warranty.
