LDN® LOW DRIFT NOZZLE

A Versatile Sprinkler with LEPA Bubbler and Spray Deflector Options

AGRICULTURAL IRRIGATION
Low Pressure - High Performance™

senninger.com
OUR MOST VERSATILE
SPRAY NOZZLE
The LDN Low Drift Nozzle offers growers multiple ways to irrigate. One applicator
can be used for LEPA applications, spray irrigation, and chemigation. With so
many options available, growers can get precise control of their sprinklers’ droplet
size, trajectory, and application pattern. This makes the LDN capable of adapting
to various crop, environmental, and soil requirements.

LDN®

EASY CONVERSION TO AND FROM SPRAY IRRIGATION


By combining a LEPA surface with a deflector pad, each of these allows for easy conversion between LEPA
application and spray irrigation. Simply twist and unlock the deflector pad. Flip it over and twist it to lock it
back in place. The choice of deflector pads is based on the desired trajectory and spray pattern.

Spray Irrigation Chemigation Deflectors - Part Numbers

CHEMIGATION
The LDN® offers chemigation pad inserts for corn or
cotton. These are designed to produce an upward
spray under the crop canopy to wash the underside of
the leaves, where pests might hide. To change from
irrigation to chemigation mode, simply twist and
unlock the deflector pad. Flip it over and twist to lock it
back in place. Any LDN Pad can be backed with a corn
chemigation pad or a cotton chemigation pad insert.

Installation Recommendations

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
• The LDN® can be mounted on flexible hose drops or rigid Polyethylene or galvanized steel drops.
• When using flexible hose drops, a weight is recommended.
• When using the Universal Magnum Weight, the LDN base threads into the internal female connection on the
bottom of the weight.
• When using The One Weight, use the internal fit technology to nest the weight onto the base of the LDN.
• Conventional slip-over weights can be used with the LDN.
• When using Senninger goosenecks with rigid drops, maximum length should not exceed
1 ft (0.3 m) below truss rod.
• The LDN can be mounted between 1.5 to 9 ft (0.46 to 2.74 m) above the ground.
• Pressure regulators can be installed at the top of the drop, or near the applicator.
• Always follow your customized printout for proper pressure regulator placement.

EASY-CLEAN / EASY-CHANGE NOZZLE DESIGN (Patented)
The Senninger easy change nozzle was introduced in 2008. Just pinch and
pull to remove the nozzle then place and click to re-install. There is no need to
disassemble or remove the sprinkler for cleaning or changing nozzles.

The nozzle numbers (corresponding to orifice sizes in 64ths of an inch) are visible on the ears.
Nozzles are warranted to maintain correct orifice size for five years.
