Orbit 55200 Pulse Pop-Up Sprinkler Head

The Pulse pop-up impact sprinkler is engineered to handle the demands of high-mineral content, dirty, and reclaimed water without clogging. Its double-weighted impact arm ensures reliable operation even under high pressure, making it ideal for landscape areas requiring a throw distance of up to 35 feet between sprinkler heads. The adjustable arc, ranging from 20 to 360 degrees, allows users to aim the water precisely, avoiding hardscape surfaces. The 3-inch pop-up height ensures the nozzle clears tall grass, while the pre-installed 3 gallon per minute (GPM) nozzle provides a full-pattern precipitation rate of 0.18 inches per hour at 40-foot square spacing and 40 PSI, reducing the risk of runoff or puddling for many soil types and conditions.

The Pulse sprinkler's radius adjustment screw allows users to reduce the impact throw down to 75 percent of its rated distance. The can and riser stem are made from high-impact ABS, and the metal components are constructed from stainless steel, ensuring durability. The arc adjustment stops make setting the pattern simple and tool-free, and the full pattern can be achieved by simply flipping up the trip pin.

The sprinkler offers both side and bottom 1/2-inch female pipe thread (FPT) inlets, with a slotted plug sealing the unused inlet. The typical installation method involves a 1/2-inch male pipe thread (MPT) riser into the bottom inlet or a 1/2" swing pipe fitting into the side inlet. The Pulse is designed as a universal replacement for old, failing, or inefficient impact sprinkler heads, and it is compatible with all major brands.

The recommended operating pressure for the Pulse sprinkler is 40 PSI, and it is suitable for outdoor irrigation use with cold water only. The sprinkler's versatility is further enhanced by its ability to operate between 20-80 psi, ensuring great spray coverage even in low-pressure situations. With its fully adjustable spray pattern, the Pulse can accommodate a wide range of applications, whether a full or part-circle is required.
