Features

More Uniform Coverage

Patent pending Flow Control Technology delivers superior close-in watering and uniform coverage across the entire spray pattern. Rain Bird HE-VAN Nozzles achieve greater than a 70% average DULQ—more than a 40% improvement over existing variable arc nozzles.

Shorter Run Times

Meet tight watering windows with ease. When compared with competitive nozzles, HE-VANs dramatically reduce zone run times. In addition to water savings, your customers will conserve energy and reduce system wear and tear.

Maximum Flexibility

With full adjustability from 0˚ to 360˚, you’ll be able to efficiently water landscapes of all shapes, while saving time and stocking fewer nozzles. Matched precipitation rates allow you to install Rain Bird® HE-VAN, MPR and U-Series Nozzles on the same zone.

Three-year trade warranty.

Distribution Uniformity (DULQ): DU in irrigation is a measure of how uniformly water is applied to the area being watered. DULQ is calculated by taking the volume in the lowest quarter of catch can measurements and dividing it by the average volume of all catch can measurements. Scheduling Coefficient (SC): SC is a measure of how long a zone must be run in order to provide adequate water to the driest spot.
