This Standard has the following three purposes:
1.1.1 To define a common test procedure for the collection of sprinkler test data such as pressure, flow rate,
and radius of throw, which may be used for the purpose of publishing performance specifications for sprinklers
whose areas of coverage have uniform radii.
1.1.2 To provide methods for the interpretation of test data for sprinkler performance specifications, as
derived from paragraph 1.1.1.
1.1.3 To provide a method to readily distinguish which performance specifications have been developed
using this procedure.
1.2 The sprinkler performance specifications presented are to be of such extent and accuracy as to assist
irrigation system designers when comparing the basic performance of various types and makes of sprinklers.
1.3 This Standard describes the types and methods of obtaining and recording pertinent test data. There
must be a sufficient amount of data recorded and retained to support published performance specifications so
apparent conflicts can be resolved.
