Product Introduction
Reliable Operation
Patented double-pop
nozzle keeps the sprinkler
free of external debris.

Efficient Application
Multiple rotating streams
provide even coverage and wind
resistance, eliminating dry spots.

Accurate Adjustments
Arc and radius can be adjusted
while maintaining matched
precipitation. Radius can be
reduced up to 25%.

Durable
Removable inlet filter keeps
sprinkler free of internal debris.

Easy Installation
Compatible with all Hunter
spray bodies—perfect for
retrofits. Use the MP-HT for
female-threaded spray bodies.

Pressure Regulation
For best results, use the pressureregulated Pro-Spray® PRS40.

MATCHED PRECIPITATION
MP Rotators now come in two precipitation rate options to
provide maximum flexibility for your irrigation design.
Standard MP Rotator Series Precipitation Rate
The Standard MP Rotator Series has the slowest
precipitation rate in the industry at approximately
0.4 in/hr, preventing runoff in the majority of soil
applications, and allowing for gentle hydration
of the landscape.

MP800 Series Precipitation Rate
The MP800 Series has a precipitation rate of
approximately 0.8 in/hr, allowing for high-efficiency
irrigation of small spaces and medium-grade soils.

Matching Soil Intake Rates
Matching your precipitation rate to your soil intake rate will
eliminate the hazards of runoff and help conserve water.
With two different precipitation rate options with the
MP Rotator, you can now choose the best high-efficiency
rotary nozzle for your plant material, soil type, and slope.
Water infiltration into the soil is less than:
1.5 in/hr   1 in/hr   0.5 in/hr 
MP Rotators deliver water slowly, at a rate that typical
soils can absorb.
 Standard sprays apply water at a rate much higher than
most soils can absorb, causing runoff in most soil types.

② Radius Adjustment
		All models of the MP Rotator allow for easy radius
adjustment of up to 25% while maintaining automatic
matched precipitation.
		Turn the nozzle adjustment screw clockwise to reduce
the radius or counterclockwise to increase the radius.
Four full rotations will maximize the effect. Additional
rotations will not affect the performance of the nozzle.

clockwise to increase the arc, and turn the adjustment

④ Pressure
		Optimal performance and uniformity are reached at
40 PSI operating pressure. Use the Pro-Spray PRS40
to achieve pressure regulation of 40 PSI.

Layout and Placement
Run Times
Because the MP Rotator applies less water with increased
uniformity, simply doubling the run time used for
traditional spray nozzles may supply sufficient water to the
landscape while using less water overall.

You can also calculate the run time based on the lower
precipitation rate.
Visit www.hunterindustries.com/tools/runtime for more
information on run time calculations.

Precipitation Rate Calculations
MP Rotators are recommended for use with head-to-head coverage in either square or triangular layouts.

Note: Equilateral triangular spacing has a higher application rate than square spacing due to less area per sprinkler.

Zoning with the MP Rotator
The standard MP Rotators have a matched
precipitation rate of approximately 0.4 in/hr.
This means any standard MP Rotator at any arc
or radius can be placed on the same zone.
The MP800SR can be configured to work well
in head-to-head coverage in either square or
triangular layouts. When square spacing is
used, the resulting precipitation rate will be
approximately 0.8 in/hr.
Since this precipitation rate differs from the
standard line of MP Rotators, you should zone
the MP800 Series separately to maintain
matched precipitation within each zone.

MP800 Series
Matched Precipitation
Maximize water savings for tight spaces with the MP800 Series. The MP800 Series offers the benefits of multi-stream,
multi-trajectory technology in smaller areas than ever before. The MP800 Series delivers water to distances as short as 6' at
a matched precipitation rate of approximately 0.8 in/hr, less than half that of traditional spray nozzles.

Pressure Ratings
The MP800 Series, just like its larger family of MP Rotators, prefers 40 PSI for optimal performance. This pressure yields
optimal results for coverage and distribution uniformity. However, to achieve the lowest radius setting of 6', you must
regulate the inlet pressure to 30 PSI. Use a Pro-Spray PRS30 to achieve a consistent inlet pressure of 30 PSI.

PRS30
Pair the MP Rotator with a
Pro-Spray PRS30 to achieve
the minimum radius.

Uniformity

The various streams of the MP Rotator allow it to target all areas of the landscape evenly when properly installed, yielding
superior uniformity over traditional spray nozzles. Several independent studies demonstrate this difference and other
efficiency benefits of the MP Rotator. Read more at hunterindustries.com/site-studies.

Cost and Water Savings
Lower System Cost
A design with MP Rotators uses far less material and equipment than a traditional spray design, resulting in an overall
reduced project cost. Due to the lower flow rates, more heads can be run at once, reducing the number of valves needed.

Filtration Recommendations and Wastewater Applications
Filtration Guidelines
You should use primary filtration when operating with
dirty water.
A general rule is to use primary filtration that is five
times the mesh rating of the nozzle filter. For example,
if the nozzle filter is 20 mesh, the primary filter should
be 100 mesh.

HY-100, HY-100-75, HY-075
Height: 6"
Width: 3"
Depth: 5"

Field testing has shown that the MP800SR runs well
in dirty water conditions with the use of a 120-mesh
primary filtration system.

Hunter’s HY filters with 150-mesh size are a great solution
for zone-specific MP800SR arrangements.

Reclaimed Wastewater
The MP Rotator is an excellent choice when using reclaimed wastewater. The materials used in the MP Rotator are
chemical-resistant polypropylene, polyurethane, acetal plastics, stainless steel, and EPDM rubber. These materials
are designed to withstand the chemicals and conditions commonly used in wastewater irrigation.
