Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about Valley® Structures, focusing on their reliability, durability, precision, and advanced features for agricultural irrigation systems. It highlights the engineering excellence and structural design that make Valley pivots superior in handling field conditions.
Drive Unit Braces: Designed for balanced load distribution, these braces enhance the system's ability to handle rough terrain.
Field Flexibility: Valley systems can be customized as either pivot or linear configurations to suit specific field conditions.
Ball and Socket: This component allows multi-directional movement, reducing pipeline stress and pressure loss, with a forged ball for increased strength.
Welded Couplers: Featuring numerous threads and a thicker cross-section, these couplers provide long-term durability and support for various sprinkler options.
Diagonal Braces: The triangular shape offers rigid strength, preventing leg bending and acting as a unified beam.
Pipeline Flexibility: Offers long-term value and versatility with options for PolySpan® and Galvanized materials.
Durability and Testing: Valley structures undergo accelerated life cycle tests, proving they last five to six times longer than competitors. The tests simulate real field conditions, ensuring reliability and longevity.
Structural Design: Features like the four-legged design, unitized base beam, and uniform crown with deeper trussing distribute loads effectively, enhancing performance and durability.
Specifications: The document details specifications for the 7000 and 8000 series, including pivot points, pipe diameters, booster pump options, span weights, truss angles, and drive leg dimensions. The 8000 series offers superior benefits with increased stability and alignment.
Conclusion: Valley® Structures are engineered for long life and superior performance in various field conditions. The document encourages consulting local Valley dealers for the latest product information and specifications.
