1. What makes the TG101 better!
Large Radius “Gun Style” Sprinkler

2. Self-Adjusting Brake System
Innovative:
Self-Adjusting Brake System
Self-adjusting brake system adapts its brake force to the system water pressure - the competition does not
Benefits
Steady gun-rotation speed regardless of nozzle-pressure range
Excellent distribution performance over the entire operating range

3. Better Distribution: The Drive System
Innovative drive system for an excellent water stream diffusion
Benefits
Slow rotation speed in both directions for a consistent and smooth operation with less vibration
Improves water uniformity, even under different pressures
Helps reduce run-off and over-watering
Operates at lower pressures with a range from 30 PSI to 110 PSI ( 2 to 7 bars )
Saves water and money

4. Advanced Stream Diffusion
Better Distribution:
Advanced Stream Diffusion
Produces a fan spray at start-up helping to minimize soil erosion and puddling
Benefits:
Better water pattern over the entire throw radius of the gun
Better water pattern close to the gun due to effective stream diffusion at all pressures
Helps control erosion

5. Better Distribution: Dynamic Jet-Breaker
The Intermittent Dynamic Jet-Breaker deflects only about 10% of water stream:
Benefits:
Saves energy and lowers operating costs through lower operating pressures
Optimizes water distribution by breaking up the water stream with an intermittent blade especially at lower pressures
Does Not affect distance of throw
Recommended on solid-set systems

6. Adjustable Rotation Speed
Better Distribution:
Adjustable Rotation Speed
Features:
Three selectable speeds that adjust the frequency of the drive arm
Slower drive arm frequency, the more water away from the gun
Water stream is broken up less frequently
Faster drive arm frequency, the more water closer to the gun
Water stream is broken up more frequently
Benefits:
Adds flexibility to water distribution pattern to accommodate specific requirements
Speed Adjustment

7. Better Distribution: Slow Reverse Benefits:
Slow steady rotation with greatly reduced vibration
Suitable for all irrigation systems and applications

8. Better Performance: Larger Barrel
Typical 2” Gun Nelson SR100
Rain Bird SR3003
TORO TG101
+33%
Nelson SR75
Nelson SR100
- 40%
- 33%
The TG101 features the largest barrel cross section in its category.
Benefits:
33% larger barrel cross section
Hydraulically optimized shape of the straightening vanes
Produces hydraulically-optimized flow pattern
The water throw and distribution are unique for this category of product

9. Better Performance: Nozzle Design A Better Nozzle Design! Benefits:
Resilient wear-resistant polymer nozzles
Perform better than aluminum nozzles used by the competition
The only repair part that customers should carry
Less expensive than competition
Two standard nozzle options: ” and .87” ( 16mm and 22mm )
Additional range of nozzles available for speciality applications

10. Quality:
Built to Last
The TG101 is built to last with quality materials and construction.
Constructed with:
High-grade Aluminum
Composites specially designed for strength and durability
Tested to withstand the harsh usage of irrigation applications

11. Better Performance: No Maintenance Benefits of TG101 Design:
No ball bearings
Competition uses ball bearings, which can seize at contact with moisture, cause failure and result in expensive repairs
No grease or oil needed
No tools required
All adjustments can be done by hand
Modular Design
Damaged parts are easily repaired
Lower part costs and pricing than competition

12. Sports Field Application
Typical Usage:
Sports Field Application
Benefits of TG101 Usage
Irrigation from the perimeter of sports fields
No rotors in playing field
No hoses, reels, or equipment on edges of the field when pole-mounted
Cooling
Artificial turf can reach 140°-160°F ( 60o-70oC ) when outside temperature reaches 75°-85°F ( 25o-30ºC)
General Maintenance
Cleaning of dust and debris off the field
Stabilization of the Infill
Reduces migration

13. Typical Installation TG101 has a 2” NPT / 2” BSP female thread
3” galvanized pipe 7 ft / 2 m above ground
Concrete thrust block
