Product Description

The Saturn III gear-drive rotor is engineered specifically to water landscape areas which require a throw distance of up to 25 ft. between sprinkler heads. Its arc is adjustable from 40 to 360 degrees in precise increments, which gives you the ability to aim it so that the water hits the landscape only and avoids any hardscape surfaces. The 4 in. pop-up riser height ensures that the nozzle clears tall grass. It comes with a pre-installed 2-gallon-per-minute (GPM) nozzle which results in a full-pattern precipitation rate of 0.30 in. per hour at 25-ft. square spacing at 40 PSI. This very low rate reduces the risk of runoff or puddling for many soil types and conditions. It includes a radius adjustment screw which allows you to reduce the rotor throw down to 75% of its rated distance. It also includes a bottom inlet filter which helps prevent clogging of the nozzle. The can and riser stem are made from high impact ABS and metal components are made from stainless steel. Adjustment of both the radius and arc requires a standard slotted screwdriver. The inlet is 1/2 in. female pipe thread (FPT). The state-of-the-art approach to mounting a Saturn III is on a 1/2 in. male pipe thread (MPT) Blu-Lock combination swing joint, although it is compatible with 1/2 in. MPT Funny Pipe fittings, swing fittings and risers. The Saturn III replaces rotors from Orbit, Hydro-Rain, and other major brands. Recommended operating pressure is 40 PSI.

From the Manufacturer

The Saturn III is the no.1 consumer choice for medium area gear drive sprinkler heads. It covers areas from a 15-Feet up to a 30-Feet radius in a part- to full-circle spray pattern. The gear drive rotor ensures even and complete water coverage.

I bought this item because it also came with the set of nozzles that I desired as well as the key that adjust it. It was missing those two items so I’m disappointed in the quality control. The assumption is when you purchase something that it includes what is listed in the description.

These were are good price for the double pack. They shot pretty far and are adjustable and have a wide rotation. They work great and are easy to install if you have all the right connection. It's a good deal and a good quality Sprinkler.

Would not recommend. They seem to require very high water pressure barely a trickle comes out of them even with only one on the line. Took the filter out and this improved it from a trickle to a dribble, very disappointed.
