The paper is devoted to the research in the field of the effective application of the main working elements of sprinkler machines showing the influence of their basic capabilities on each other. The aim of the study was to develop and improve the performance of irrigation systems for the possibility of irrigation process optimization. As a result, it was found that the ratio between the spray angle and its maximum height at different pressures is equivalent to the second-order parabola equation. The inferred expected dependencies between the radius and the spray angle can be used to determine the degree of spray due to the inclination of the spray tube, which leads to a change in the spray angle when it rotates around its axis and, thus, the degree of spray and the shape of the irrigated area.
