How to choose the appropriate Pop-up Sprinkler layout according to the size of the irrigation area?

First, you need to have a comprehensive understanding of the irrigation area, including its size, shape, terrain characteristics, soil type, and crop distribution. These factors will directly affect the selection and layout of sprinklers.
Choose the appropriate Pop-up Sprinkler type according to the characteristics of the irrigation area. Different types of sprinklers have different ranges, flow rates, and spray patterns, suitable for different irrigation needs. For example, small-range sprinklers are suitable for small plots or areas that require fine irrigation, while large-range sprinklers are suitable for large-area irrigation.
Calculate the number of sprinklers:
1. Measure the size of the irrigation area: Use a measuring tool to accurately measure the length and width of the irrigation area.
2. Determine the sprinkler range: According to the range parameters of the selected sprinkler, determine the effective coverage area of ​​each sprinkler.
3. Calculate the number of sprinklers: Divide the total area of ​​the irrigation area by the effective coverage area of ​​a single sprinkler to get the approximate number of sprinklers required. Note that in order to ensure uniform irrigation, a certain number of sprinklers are usually appropriately added to the calculated results, especially at the edge of the area and irregular areas.
Plan the layout of sprinkler heads:
First, sprinkler heads are arranged at the corner turning points of the irrigation area to ensure irrigation coverage of these areas. Next, sprinkler heads are arranged in the middle of the border and the center of the plot to form a preliminary irrigation network. The layout of sprinkler heads is further optimized according to the shape of the irrigation area and the distribution of crops. For plots of regular shape, a square or triangular layout can be adopted; for plots of irregular shape, the position and number of sprinkler heads need to be flexibly adjusted to ensure uniform irrigation without omissions. When laying out, the influence of wind direction and slope on irrigation effect also needs to be considered. For example, in windy areas, the density and range of sprinkler heads can be appropriately increased to reduce the effect of wind on water droplets; in areas with large slopes, the angle and position of sprinkler heads need to be adjusted to ensure that irrigation water can be evenly distributed on the soil surface.
After the layout is completed, the entire irrigation system needs to be checked and adjusted. Through field observation and testing, check whether the spraying range, overlap and irrigation intensity of sprinkler heads meet the requirements. If necessary, the position, angle or type of sprinkler heads can be adjusted to achieve the best irrigation effect.
