</span>
</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span> </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span><span>With a radius up to 96 feet from a single sprinkler, the I-90 boasts a coverage area no other commercial sprinkler can deliver. Yet, its reduced-size diameter and cushioned rubber cover make it the perfect choice for parks and wide-open lawn areas, as well as perimeter watering of athletic fields and horse arenas. The rotor is also perfectly easy to service, with a “jar-top” body cap that allows quick access to the filter screen and check valve with no extra pieces, parts, or tools required. The I-90 is offered in two models–a full-circle opposing-nozzle version or an adjustable arc model–each with color-coded nozzles that can be field-changed to match the specific needs of your site.</span></span></p>

<p><span><strong>A large turf rotor that meets the demands of systems with lower pressures and smaller budgets.</strong></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p></span>
</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span><br />
<span>Facilities with wide expanses of turf require rotors that can cover great distances. But, the farther the rotors are spread apart, the higher the pressure needs to be to cover the throw. With municipal water supplies, more often than not, the pressure is too low for the rotors to work effectively. Instead of the expense of installing a pump to get the pressure up to an operational level, Hunter offers you a more efficient (cost and performance) way. The I-60 lets you space rotors far enough apart, as is desirable in a large landscape such as a city park or community sports complex. Because it is designed to operate under lower pressure, it’s a rotor that makes good economic sense. And, since it uses less water to run, the I-60 also eliminates the need to install larger pipe (another savings for the budget conscious).</span></span>
