The main difference is operation mode. The Komet 163 can run part circle and can also be adjusted for full-circle operation through the part-circle stops. The Komet 162 is the full-circle model, mainly intended for extensive solid-set and moveable irrigation systems. If directional coverage control matters, the 163 is usually the better starting point.

The brochure lists a nozzle range from 8 to 16 mm and a pressure range from 2 to 6 bar. That gives a useful working span for many field irrigation applications. Final nozzle and pressure choice should be based on the required application rate, spacing, and field conditions.

Performance data are obtained under ideal testing conditions. Wind and other field factors can affect results, and pressure values refer to pressure at the nozzle. When designing a system, wind speed and wind direction should be considered and spacing should be reduced accordingly for the selected setup. This is important for maintaining stable coverage consistency in the field.

The sprinkler uses high-quality materials including technical polymers, marine grade aluminum, and stainless steel. The product line is designed for long wear life and maintenance-free operation. In practice, that helps reduce service interruptions and unnecessary replacement over long seasons.

For specification help, setup questions, and spare parts, the fastest route is usually your local Komet dealer or support contact. They can help check connection, application fit, and the right configuration for your machine or field layout. This is usually the most practical way to move from brochure data to a working setup.
