Rain Bird 1804-RVAN14 4 in. Pop-Up w/ 8-14 ft. Adjustable Rotary Nozzle (45 to 270 Degree)
Rain Bird® R-VAN Adjustable Rotary Nozzles
provide water efficiency and design flexibility.
R-VANs feature rotating stream technology
which uniformly delivers water at a low
precipitation rate, significantly reducing
runoff and erosion. Retrofitting standard
spray nozzles with R-VANs can reduce flow
by up to 60% and improve water efficiency
by up to 30%. Nozzle spray pattern and
distance are easily adjusted by hand with no
tools required.
Features for RVAN14
- Matched precipitation rates across radius
and arcs simplify the design process
- Adjust arc and radius without tools
- A pull-up to flush feature keeps the nozzle
clear of dirt and debris
- Color coded for easy identification of R-VAN
model
- Low precipitation rate reduces runoff and
erosion
- Maintains efficient performance at high
operating pressures without misting or
fogging
- Compatible with all models of Rain Bird
spray bodies in addition to a wide variety of
risers and adapters

Features / Benefits for 1804
- Exclusive co-molded wiper seal features an encased plastic "cage" to provide unmatched resistance to grit, pressure and the environment. Additionally, the pressure-activated, multi-function seal design assures a positive seal without excess flow-by which enables more heads to be installed on the same valve.
- Precision controlled flush at pop-down clears debris from unit, assuring positive stem retraction in all soil types.
- Strong stainless steel spring provides reliable stem retraction.
- Two piece ratchet mechanism on all models allows easy nozzle pattern alignment without tools and provides added durability.
- Pre-installed orange 1800 Pop-Top flush plug blocks debris from entering after flushing. Allows for easy nozzle installation.
- Constructed of time-proven UV-resistant plastic and corrosion resistant stainless steel parts, assuring long product life.
- All sprinkler components are removable from the top without special tools, providing for quick and easy flushing and maintenance of the sprinkler.
- Side and bottom inlets featured on 1806 and 1812 models.
- Five-year trade warranty.
