How many sprinklers can I operate per irrigation circuit?
The amount of water you measure is the deciding factor – the planner shows you how much you need.
As a general rule, the amount of water measured at 3.5 bar determines how many sprinklers can be connected to a circuit. Each sprinkler has a specific consumption rate. The total consumption of the sprinklers must not exceed the amount of water available in your circuit.
If you use the DVS Irrigation Planner, you do not need to use a table: the planner shows you the actual water requirement for each valve circuit and warns you if too many sprinklers are connected to a circuit.
Important: If there are too many sprinklers in a circuit, not only will the radius be reduced, but in the worst case scenario, so little water will reach the sprinkler that it will not start up at all.
To measure the amount of water, we recommend the measuring device from our shop (including video instructions).
In short: The measured m³/h set the framework. The planner shows you your consumption and notifies you when you exceed it.
