WALLA WALLA, Wash.-After years of planning, design, testing and development Nelson is pleased to announce the release of the R33 Rotator. Nozzles are now available in 9/64- , 5/32- , 11/64- and 3/16-inch sizes.

The R33 Rotator is an innovation that saves money, saves time and performs better than the 3/4-inch brass impact sprinklers it's designed to replace. Created as an upgrade to replace the Nelson F33 brass sprinkler, the R33 uses Nelson's proven Rotator Technology to provide longer throw distance, fight the wind and deliver uniform coverage.

With new advancements in speed control, its break-through design allows the sprinkler to move from slow mode back to a fast mode throughout its rotation. By reducing the speed of rotation intermittently, the R33 produces a wind-fighting pattern with maximum throw distance. The fast mode also assists in filling out the water pattern for greater uniformity.

While brass sprinklers are prone to damage, clogging and theft, the R33 is easy to clean, easy to repair and costs less.

The R33 is suitable for permanent-set, portable-pipe and wheel-line applications for all type of crops, including forage crops, vegetables, grain and pastures, as well as tree and vine crops.

The same tradition of quality, reliability and long wear life you expect in the F33 you can find in the R33.
