ISO 15886-1:2012

Agricultural irrigation equipment — Sprinklers — Part 1: Definition of terms and classification

ISO 15886-1:2012 defines terms related to irrigation sprinklers and specifies the classification of sprinklers according to the following categories: physical factors; characteristics of the water spray; the mechanism for operation and water distribution; the mechanism for sealing; the intended use; additional functions incorporated into the sprinkler. The scope is intentionally broad to cover the widest possible range of sprinkler construction, performance, and intended-use alternatives.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15886-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23, Tractors and machinery for agriculture and
forestry, Subcommittee SC 18, Irrigation and drainage equipment and systems.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 15886-1:2004), which has been technically revised.
ISO 15886 consists of the following parts, under the general title Agricultural irrigation equipment — Sprinklers:
— Part 1: Definition of terms and classification
— Part 3: Characterizing of distribution and test methods
