Sprinkler Rain Bird R-VAN24-360 Rotary Nozzles 17–24 ft Full‑Circle, 5‑Pack — Low‑Precipitation Rotating Streams

Sprinkler's Rain Bird R-VAN24-360 are adjustable full-circle rotary nozzles that deliver multiple wind-resistant streams for uniform watering across a 17–24 ft radius.

The R-VAN24-360 replaces standard spray nozzles with a low-precipitation rotating-stream design that reduces runoff and improves watering uniformity. These factory-set 360° nozzles are easy to adjust by hand, include a manual flush feature to clear debris, and are built to perform across the Rain Bird recommended pressure range. They are sold here as a convenient 5-piece bag, ready for retrofitting pop-up spray bodies on landscapes and turf.

How do these nozzles save water without changing my system?

The rotating streams emit water at a lower precipitation rate than conventional sprays, which reduces surface runoff and allows soil to absorb water more effectively. Swapping out spray nozzles for R-VANs often lowers flow while maintaining coverage.

• Low precipitation rotating streams reduce misting and evaporation.
• Retrofit design fits standard spray bodies—no major plumbing changes.
• Can reduce nozzle flow by up to 60% compared to fixed sprays.
• Recommended operating pressure 45 psi for optimal efficiency.

What adjustments can I make in the field and do I need tools?

Radius and pattern are adjustable by hand while the nozzle is running, so installers can fine-tune distance without disassembly or special tools. The full-circle arc is preconfigured for 360°, but radius reduction is simple and intuitive.

• Radius easily shortened by hand during operation.
• No tools required for common adjustments—faster installs.
• Manual pull-up flush clears clogged debris without removal.
• Adjustments recommended within 30–55 psi pressure range.

How do they perform in windy or dirty conditions?

R-VAN nozzles create chunky, wind-resistant streams that penetrate airflow better than fine mist, so more water reaches the target zone. The pull-up flush feature helps maintain flow when dirt or sand threatens performance.

• Thick droplets reduce drift and increase uniformity in wind.
• Rotating streams maintain coverage across the 17'–24' spacing.
• Flush feature removes debris from the nozzle outlet quickly.
• Works reliably at recommended pressures; avoid extremes outside 30–55 psi.

What spacing and pressure should I plan for when designing a zone?

These nozzles are intended for spacings from 17 to 24 feet under calm conditions and perform best near the recommended operating pressure. Planning zones to match the 360° pattern and pressure range ensures even coverage and avoids overspray.

• Spacing: 17'–24' (zero-wind basis).
• Pressure range: 30–55 psi; recommended 45 psi for best uniformity.
• Install in full-circle pop-up bodies or retrofit existing spray bodies set for 360°.
• Adjust radius while water is running to dial in coverage.

Who is this product for: Landscapers, irrigation contractors, and homeowners wanting to upgrade spray-head zones for better water efficiency and coverage. This 5-pack of Rain Bird R-VAN24-360 nozzles is ideal for retrofitting existing spray systems without rewiring or changing pipework, especially in turf or planting beds where wind-resilient streams and debris flushing improve real-world performance.
