Rainbird National Sls LG-3 Pop Up Impact Sprinkler Head

Product Description

The RAINBIRD NATIONAL SLS LG-3 is a low-gallonage pop-up impact sprinkler head designed for residential and commercial irrigation systems operating under low-pressure conditions. Running at 2.3 gallons per minute (GPM), this head delivers efficient coverage without demanding high line pressure. The 0.5-inch bottom and side inlet allows flexible plumbing configurations, and the pop-up design keeps the nozzle protected when the system is off. Irrigation contractors and landscape professionals install this unit where water conservation and pressure limitations are primary concerns.

The LG-3 is suited for turf and landscape zones where heads need to be spaced between 25 and 36 inches apart and full or partial circle coverage patterns are required. The adjustable arc makes it adaptable to irregular zones, corners, and open field layouts without swapping out heads. It is particularly well suited for irrigation systems in areas with lower municipal or well-pump pressure output.

Key Features

• Low gallonage output at 2.3 GPM reduces water consumption in pressure-limited systems
• Adjustable full and part circle arc coverage for flexible zone configuration
• Pop-up design protects the impact mechanism when the system is inactive
• 0.5-inch bottom and side inlet supports multiple plumbing orientations
• Recommended head spacing of 25 to 36 inches for uniform distribution
• Especially suited for low-pressure irrigation applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install impact sprinkler head for low-pressure residential and commercial irrigation systems requiring a 0.5-inch threaded inlet connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified irrigation technician in accordance with local plumbing and irrigation codes. Shut off the irrigation water supply and relieve system pressure before making any connections. Ensure the inlet thread size matches existing lateral pipe fittings before installation. Do not overtighten threaded connections on plastic fittings, as this can cause cracking and leaks.
