Rain Bird 752 nozzle performance in metric units
This page presents selected metric performance data for Rain Bird 752 Series full and part-circle golf rotors. It is intended as a clear field and planning reference for UK golf and sports turf teams.
The values below were checked against Rain Bird's current 752 Series technical specification retrieved on 8 September 2026. The official file path is dated May 2025 and the document carries code D37603 with a 1/21 footer. Always confirm that the rotor body, nozzle housing, nozzle and pressure regulation on site match the referenced configuration.
Reference scope
- Rotor: Rain Bird 752 Series
- Nozzles: Dual Spreader nozzles with standard nozzle housing
- Pressure tables: 4.8 bar and 5.5 bar
- Units: metres, cubic metres per hour and litres per second
- Manufacturer source: current Rain Bird PDF retrieved 8 September 2026; file path dated May 2025; document code D37603, footer 1/21
Rain Bird describes the distance as radius. On site, this is the sprinkler throw in metres. Flow in m³/h is shown first, with l/s retained from the source data.
The manufacturer lists an overall radius range of 5.8 to 25.6 metres and a flow range of 0.42 to 2.97 litres per second across the complete published operating data. The 4.8 and 5.5 bar tables below reflect the two factory pressure-regulator settings stated for the 752 E and IC models.

How to read the chart
Standard radius refers to the published result for the standard nozzle arrangement. Low-angle radius refers to the published low-angle result. Base pressure is the pressure at the sprinkler, not simply the pressure shown at the pump station.
Published performance figures are a selection reference, not a guarantee of field coverage. Wind, elevation, sprinkler spacing, nozzle condition, regulation, pipe losses and available system flow all affect the result on an operating course.
Do not select on radius alone
- Confirm the pressure available at the sprinkler while the intended irrigation group is operating.
- Check total flow demand against the pump, storage and distribution network.
- Consider full-circle and part-circle application, spacing and the surrounding nozzle layout.
- Check the installed nozzle housing, pressure regulator and equipment condition.
- Review whether an apparent nozzle problem is actually caused by pipework, regulation, valve or pump performance.
