Rain on demand.
Saurabh Shaktiman sprinkler irrigation — mini sprinklers, portable heads and rain guns for large-area field crops. BIS IS 15886 certified. Eligible for 55–90% PMKSY subsidy.
Where drip is perfect for individual plants, sprinkler is built for field-scale coverage — cereals, pulses, cotton and pastures.
Sprinkler irrigation distributes water in a simulated rainfall pattern — pumped through a pipe network and released via rotating, fixed or oscillating heads. Saurabh Shaktiman sprinkler systems are designed for uniform coverage over large areas, with pressure regulation ensuring every head operates within specification.
Six sprinkler types. Every crop covered.
Mini sprinklers for close-row crops, portable heads for shifting lateral systems, and long-range rain guns for sugarcane and paddy — the complete Saurabh Shaktiman sprinkler range.
Mini Sprinkler — Signet Green
Compact mini sprinkler designed for low-height field crops — onion, groundnut, soybean, chick pea. Works on moderate pump pressure with uniform circular coverage.

- 1.0 – 2.5 kg/cm²
- Rotation
- 360° full circle
- Nozzle
- Single / Dual
Mini Sprinkler — Signet Super
Higher-output mini sprinkler for wider row spacing and taller crops. Same robust PP body construction with colour-coded nozzles for quick flow identification.

Portable Sprinkler with Riser
Standard field sprinkler on a riser pipe — suited for wheat, paddy, cotton and maize. Moves with the lateral shift system as irrigation progresses across the field.

- 6 – 9 m
- Discharge
- 500 – 1200 lph
- Operating pressure

Mini Sprinkler — Butterfly / Bird Type
Low-trajectory butterfly and bird-type heads for orchards, vineyards and nurseries — delivers a gentle shower directly to the root zone without wetting foliage.
- Coverage radius
- 3 – 5 m
- Discharge
- 100 – 350 lph
- Operating pressure
- 1.0 – 2.0 kg/cm²
- Pattern
- Semi-circle / Full circle
- Mounting
- Stake / in-line
Rain Gun Sprinkler
High-volume, long-range rain guns for large field coverage — sugarcane, paddy and pastures. One rain gun can cover over 2 bigha per setting, reducing lateral shifting work significantly.
- Coverage radius
- 25 – 50 m
- Discharge
- 5,000 – 25,000 lph
- Operating pressure
- 3.5 – 7.0 kg/cm²
- Rotation
- Part or full circle
- Application
- Sugarcane, paddy, large fields
Single-Nozzle Sprinkler
Fixed or rotating single-nozzle heads for precise coverage where water distribution needs to be targeted — kitchen gardens, nurseries and speciality horticulture.
- Coverage radius
- 3.5 – 6 m
- Discharge
- 150 – 500 lph
- Operating pressure
- 1.0 – 2.5 kg/cm²
- Rotation
- 360° or sector
What goes into a sprinkler system.
Pump & Motor set
Centrifugal or submersible pump providing the operating pressure for the sprinkler system.
Main pipe (PVC / HDPE)
Brings water from the pump to the field in rigid PVC or flexible HDPE, sized to system flow.
Sub-main
Intermediate pipes branching from the main to deliver water across field zones.
Lateral pipes
PVC laterals along crop rows from which riser pipes extend up to the sprinkler heads.
Riser pipes
Rigid risers of 30–90 cm height lift the sprinkler heads above crop canopy level.
Sprinkler heads
Mini sprinklers, portable sprinklers or rain guns matched to the crop and coverage need.
Pressure regulator
Holds working pressure within the sprinkler's operating range — critical for uniformity.
Control valves (PP)
Zone-level flow isolation for phased irrigation and system maintenance.
Filters
Screen or disc filters protecting sprinkler nozzles from particle blockage.
Couplings & take-offs
Push-fit or solvent-cement fittings for quick, leak-free assembly in the field.
Sprinkler vs. Drip — what's right for your field?
Both systems save water over conventional flood irrigation — but they serve different crops and farming situations. Use this to decide.
| Parameter | Drip Irrigation | Sprinkler Irrigation |
|---|---|---|
| Suitable for | Trees, vines, vegetables, drip-row crops | Cereals, pulses, field crops, pastures, sugarcane |
| Water efficiency vs. flood | Up to 60% savings | Up to 40% savings |
| Fertigation | Highly efficient — direct root zone delivery | Possible but less targeted |
| Coverage per head | 0.5–1.5 m strip | 3–50 m radius per head |
| Wind sensitivity | Not affected | High winds reduce uniformity |
| Cooling effect | None | Yes — beneficial in summer |
| Capital cost | Higher | Moderate |
| Labour (operation) | Minimal — automated | Lateral shifting required for portables |

Which sprinkler for which crop.
| Crop | Sprinkler Type | Lateral Spacing | Key Timing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wheat / Rabi cereals | Portable sprinkler | 12 × 12 m | Critical for germination and tillering |
| Paddy (transplanted) | Rain gun / sprinkler | 18 × 18 m | Pre-saturation and growth stage irrigation |
| Maize / Jowar | Portable sprinkler | 12 × 12 m | Uniform application across tall canopy |
| Cotton | Portable / Mini sprinkler | 12 × 12 m | Supplement to drip in wide-row fields |
| Soybean | Mini sprinkler | 6 × 6 m | Pod-fill stage irrigation |
