If flow control is required then the Rain Bird 25mm DV-F flow control solenoid valve can be used. By adjusting the control stem any sprinklers controlled by that valve can be set to lower than your normal pressure to optimise the sprinkler performance . Great for micro jets and lower pressure spinner stake type sprinklers requiring 150 kPa instead of 300kPa.

Swing Arm Risers
To allow you to raise or lower a sprinkler without affecting the lateral line in the ground complete the installation of sprinklers with swing arm risers. (Also known as articulated risers.) These are invaluable when it comes to top dressing lawns and revamping soft spots. In areas where heavier mowers & vehicles pass over sprinklers most of the pipe work damage will be avoided by using swing arm risers. Only a few dollars each and very worth while.
