DISTRIBUTION ANALYSIS Hunter's Testing Philosophy The following five sets of distribution analysis for the new I-60 are from Hunter's state-of-the-art testing lab. Hunter Industries routinely submits products to The Center for Irrigation Technology for independent testing. We use CIT's test results to verify our own and to make our performance available to the public through their computer software programs.

PRECIPITATION RATE FORMULA Two formulas are shown below, the first is most useful when comparing precipitation rates between different types of sprinklers or calculating precipitation rates on areas with a single type of sprinkler and uniform head and row spacing. The second method is better suited to areas where sprinkler head flows or spacing varies.
