Abstract: Irrigation systems, irrigation components and related methods are provided. In one example, an irrigation system includes at least one irrigation span configured for fluid communication with a water source, where the irrigation span includes a pipe and at least one sprinkler nozzle in fluid communication with the pipe. One or more drive units are associated with irrigation span or spans for selectively displacing the span or spans. A separator is in fluid communication with the pipe. The separator includes a housing defining an inlet, a first outlet and a second outlet. A screen divides an interior space of the housing into a first zone and a second zone, wherein the first outlet is associated with the first zone and the second outlet is associated with the second zone. A valve is in fluid communication with the first outlet and a dispersing structure is in fluid communication with the second outlet.
