Senninger and Nelson presented Understanding Pressure Regulation at the 2019 Irrigation Association show to emphasize their commitment as irrigation component manufacturers to the importance of pressure regulation.
Through their joint presentation, Senninger and Nelson provided answers to questions such as: what pressure regulators are, and what they do; how pressure regulators work; why they are needed; what is the relationship between pressure and flow; what causes pressure variations; and how long pressure regulators last, among others.
Understanding Pressure Regulation can be downloaded as a PDF here. It covers the basics of pressure regulators, how to install pressure regulators in different types of irrigation systems, how to recommend the correct model for different installations, and how to identify problems and troubleshoot issues that can occur.
Over their years in the industry, Senninger and Nelson have seen the benefits of pressure regulators and the problems encountered if they are not used when they should be.
