How to Use This Catalog
The 2003 - 2004 Rain Bird Landscape Irrigation Products Catalog
is designed to provide you with product and application information in a clear, easy-to-use format.
In the “How to Use This Catalog” section, we introduce you to elements you will likely encounter
on specific product pages.
At the beginning of each section, we’ve included product application matrices. These are general
guides to the products’ primary areas of use and are intended to help you choose the right Rain
Bird products for your specific needs.
We have included formulas showing how we calculate precipitation rates, as well as lists of
abbreviations used in the product sections.
Cutaways
Our cutaway illustrations let
you see the unique innovations
and features which make a
specific Rain Bird product the
industry’s best.
Charts
Performance charts with
both standard and metric
measurements give you easy
access to the product
capability information you need.
To convert from Bars to kPa,
use 1 Bar = 100 kPa.
Precipitation Rates
Rain Bird has calculated for you the precipitation rates for our
comprehensive lines of impacts, sprays, and rotors. These rates are
an indication of the approximate rate at which water is being
applied. The equations used to calculate the precipitation rates are
as follows:
▲

Plan
You can confidently expect that when you install patented U-Series
nozzles from Rain Bird® you will reduce watering run times which in
turn conserves water and saves money. Water- and money-savings
result from the most uniform water distribution available for spray
heads. This is the only plastic nozzle with a dual-orifice** design that
efficiently delivers superior close-in watering and even water
distribution across the entire radius range.
■ Water flowing from both orifices*
eliminates gaps for more
uniform coverage
■ Matched precipitation rates across
pattern and radii with U-Series, MPR
and VAN nozzles provide flexibility in
design and installation

Going head-to-head
against the competition.
Rain Bird® U-Series nozzles produce
spray patterns from two orifices to
form a continuous water stream.
The result is that gaps in coverage are
eliminated so the entire watering area
is more uniformly covered.
The benefit of Rain Bird® U-Series nozzles is clearly visible
in side-by-side comparisons with standard, single-orifice
spray nozzles. The second orifice on the U-Series allows for
superior close-in watering. With the efficiency of U-Series
nozzles, you may reduce watering times by more than 30%.
Refer to the example on the left to see how. U-Series nozzles
have the lowest scheduling coefficient available in a spray
head nozzle.

What is Scheduling Coefficient?
Scheduling Coefficient (SC) is a measure of irrigation
uniformity developed for turf grass.

Matched Precipitation Rate Nozzles
Plastic MPR Nozzles
Primary Application
Matched Precipitation Rate (MPR) nozzles simplify the design
process by allowing sprinklers with various arcs and radii to be
mixed on the same circuit. Fit all Rain Bird spray heads and shrub
adapters.
Features
• Matched precipitation rates across sets and across patterns in
5 Series, 8 Series, 10 Series, 12 Series, and 15 Series for
even water distribution and design flexibility.
• 5 Series nozzles meet small-area shrub or turf requirements.
• 8 Series nozzles now have a lower water flow which allows more
spray heads per zone.
• 1800 Series white filter (.035" x .035") screens (shipped with
nozzles) maintain precise radius adjustment and prevent clogging.
(5 and 8 Series nozzles are shipped with blue fine-mesh
(.02" x .02") filter screens.)
• Stainless steel adjustment screw to adjust flow and radius.
Operating Range
• Spacing: 3 to 20 feet (0,9 to 4,6 m)
• Pressure: 15 to 30 psi (1 to 2,1 bars)

Spray Heads
Double-Orifice Plastic Nozzles
Plastic U-Series Nozzles
Use 30% Less Water*
Primary Application
The patented U-Series nozzle is the first plastic nozzle with a second orifice for close-in watering and more uniform water distribution. Use up to 30% less water.* Its unique design cuts watering
run times, saves water and money, and reduces waste.
Features
• Additional orifice for close-in watering. Minimizes dry brown
spots around spray heads.
• Low Scheduling Coefficient for efficient watering.**
• Matched precipitation rate between sets and matched flow
(GPM, m 3/h and l/s) and precipitation rates with 1800 Series MPR
nozzles.
• Greater flexibility. Now, with the new 8’ and 10’ nozzles, a complete family of fixed arc U-Series nozzles.
• Fine mesh screen protects bottom orifice from debris.
• Stainless steel adjustment screw to adjust flow and radius.
• Five-year trade warranty.
• Fits all Rain Bird sprinklers and shrub adapters.
* When U-Series dual-orifice nozzles are installed instead of standard nozzles on
every spray head in the zone. Results may vary based on site-specific conditions
such as sprinkler spacing, wind, temperature, soil and grass type.
** Scheduling Coefficient (SC) measures the efficiency of spray heads. SC measures
how much more you must water your ENTIRE area for the driest sections to receive
sufficient water. The lower the SC, the better the spray heads distribute water.
Operating Range
• Spacing: 5 to 15 feet (1,8 to 4,6 m)
• Pressure: 15 to 30 psi (1,0 to 2,1 bars)
• Optimum pressure: 30 psi (2,1 bars) *
* Rain Bird recommends using 1800 PRS spray heads to maintain optimum
nozzle performance in higher pressure situations.

Better, more uniform water distribution. Water flowing from both
orifices combines to form a
continuous water stream.
Eliminates gaps for more uniform
coverage throughout the entire
watering area.

Pressure Compensating Screens
1800 PCS
Primary Application
Under the nozzle pressure compensation screens help reduce
pressure flunctuations. Use to control fogging of spray nozzles by
reducing the incoming pressure or to reduce the radius of the water
pattern. Take control of your system with 1800 PCS screens.
Features
• Compensates for pressure variations.
• Eliminates fogging and water waste caused by high pressures.
• Nozzles can be matched with screens to create short-throw,
reduced-radius patterns and/or flush-mounted bubblers.
• New .08 GPM (0,02 m3/h; 0,01 l/s) and .25 GPM (0,06 m3/h; 0,02 l/s)
screens allow greater flexibility in achieving 4', 6', and 7' radius
patterns
• Color-coded for easy identification
• Use with all 1800 Series plastic nozzles (MPR, VAN, U-Series,
Strips and Bubblers).
• Easily installed in new and retrofit applications. Simply replace
standard screen with PCS screen.

Note: radius reduction data tested at 30 psi (1,5 bars)
* Individual results may vary based on site conditions
* With a pressure compensator, outlet pressure will be reduced, but will fluctuate
as the inlet pressure changes. A pressure compensator cannot maintain outlet
pressure at a constant rate. A pressure regulator establishes and maintains a constant
outlet pressure of 30 psi (2,1 bars) as long as the inlet pressure at the spray head is
greater than 30 psi (2,1 bars).
Operating Range
• Flow: 0.10 to 3.70 GPM (0,05 to 0,84 m 3/h; 0,01 to 0,23 l/s)

Install Rain Bird®
Rain Curtain™ Technology.
Rain Curtain technology is only available on Rain Bird rotors, including

Only Rain Bird® rotors have Rain Curtain™ nozzle technology that
features larger water droplets for resistance to windy conditions,
effective close-in watering to eliminate dry spots near the rotor
and even distribution over the entire radius range. In side-by-side
comparisons with the competition, the clear advantages of Rain
Curtain technology can be seen with the naked eye.
Rain Curtain Technology
How is Nozzle Performance Measured?
Scheduling Coefficient (SC) is one of the most accurate
ways to measure water distribution.
■ SC measures how much longer you must water the entire
area for the driest sections to receive sufficient water.
■ The lower the SC, the better the rotor distributes water.
An SC of 1.0 represents perfect uniformity. Tests show
that even rain has an SC greater than 1.0.**
■ Test results from side-by-side comparisons with
competitive nozzle products prove that Rain Curtain
technology consistently outperforms the competition
with the lowest scheduling coefficients—as low as 1.1.*
*Based on tests conducted at Rain Bird’s Product Research Center in Glendora, CA.
Test results reflect a comparison of Rain Bird’s products with those
of its principal competitors.**Based on a report published by
The Center for Irrigation Technology.

There are three elements which create the superior coverage
of Rain Curtain nozzle technology.
Short to Mid-Range Rain Curtain™ Nozzle Technology
[15-50 ft. (4,6-15,3 m)]
1
Large Droplets for Consistent Performance
Patent-Pending Micro-Ramps™ draw water off the main
stream, and gently divert it downward around the head
for superior close-in watering without seed washout.
Rain Curtain technology produces larger water droplets that
are far less susceptible to wind, and greatly minimizes misting and
airborne evaporation. This competitive advantage assures that the
right amount of water goes where it needs to go which saves time,
money and equally important, one of nature’s most valuable
resources.

Watering Port
Rain Bird’s broad range of Rain Curtain nozzles [0.54-36.3 GPM
(0,12-8,24 m3/h), 15-81 ft. (4,6-24,7m)] is engineered to deliver
optimum distribution uniformity across the entire radius range.
This uniformity compensates for varying environmental conditions,
offering flexibility to the designer and assuring green grass results.
In Rain Bird large area rotors, Rain Curtain technology centers
around three watering ports that deliver long-range,mid-range
and close-in water for optimum distribution uniformity. This
uniformity across the entire radius range greatly diminishes
dependence on near-perfect head-to-head spacing, and
reduces the need to overwater because there are no gaps in
coverage. The close-in watering port features an expansion
chamber that actually takes energy out of that part of the
stream which is diverted downward around the head. By
reducing the velocity of the water by as much as 90%, effective
close-in watering is achieved. The close-in water flowing out of
the bottom of this port is distributed gently, even though the
rotor is operating at a relatively high flow and pressure.

A rugged, mid-range gear-drive, the Rain Bird® 5000 Series Rotor
delivers unrivaled performance, is durable and features convenient
arc adjustment from the top. Specifically designed for residential,
commercial and athletic field installations with spacing up to 50'
(15,2 m), trust that this rotor is more reliable than the competition,
more robust and will continue to perform as promised year after
year. Here are just a few reasons why:
■ Rain Curtain™ nozzle trees, including eight nozzles
(angle of trajectory 25˚) and four low angle nozzles
(angle of trajectory 10˚), provide 25 to 50 feet (7,6 to
15,2 m) distance of throw.
■ Pressure-activated, multi-function wiper seal protects
internals from debris and assures positive pop-up
and retraction.
■ Five-year trade warranty reinforces Rain Bird’s
commitment to product integrity and assures customer
peace of mind.
■ Reversing full- and part-circle operation (up to 360˚)
in one unit.
■ Field-proven UV-resistant plastic and stainless steel
parts construction ensures long product life.
■ Reinforced flow path for additional side load strength.

Rotor Nozzles
NEW
5000/5000 Plus MPR Nozzles
Achieve Matched Precipitation Rate Between 25' and 35'
Primary Application
Rain Bird 5000/5000 Plus MPR Nozzles simplify both the design
process and the installation of rotors, because they reliably deliver
matched precipitation rates within and between rotor radii from 25'
to 35'. Without having to use fixed arc plates, designers and
installers can achieve MPR using either 5000 Series or 5000 Plus
Series Rotors. Superior flexibility in arc adjustment minimizes the
risks of over- or under-watering.
Features
• Three Nozzle trees of 25', 30', and 35' (7,6 m, 9,1 m, 10,7 m) radii
• Each tree contains a Q (90°), T (120°), H (180°), and F (360°) Nozzle
• No fixed arc plate required
• Compatible with both the 5000 and 5000 Plus Rotor Series
• Rain Curtain™ Technology provides:
- Large droplets for consistent performance
- Effective close-in watering
- Even distribution over the entire radius
• Precipitation rate of 0.60 in/hr (15,2 mm/hr) reduces run-off and
erosion
• Color-coded by radius for easy identification
• Nozzles are easy to insert and remove
• Stackable Nozzle trees for convenient storage
Models
• 5000-MPR-25: Tree of nozzles for 25-foot radius with
Q, T, H, F Nozzles attached
• 5000-MPR-30: Tree of nozzles for 30-foot radius with
Q, T, H, F Nozzles attached
• 5000-MPR-35: Tree of nozzles for 35-foot radius with
Q, T, H, F Nozzles attached

®
Uncompromising Performance
Primary Application
Parks, athletic fields, cemeteries, schools and commercial sites –
Large turf areas with spacing up to 65 feet (19,8 m).
With the Falcon 6504 rotor you can have it all — superior
distribution, reliability and durability! Rain Curtain™ nozzles
maximize performance and coverage. A multi-function wiper seal
and tapered riser keep the stem clear of debris, providing long-term
protection. Plus, heavy-duty construction makes the Falcon 6504
one of the toughest rotors in the field. Available in full- and partcircle models with optional stainless steel riser, the Falcon 6504
rotor is ideal for large turf sites such as parks, athletic fields,
cemeteries, schools and commercial applications.

Swing Joints
TSJ Series
Primary Application
Connects 3⁄4" (1,9 cm), 1" (2,5 cm), and 11⁄2" (3,8 cm) sprinklers or
quick coupler valves to lateral pipes. Used to level heads to grade
and prevent damage to pipes.
Features
• All Rain Bird swing joints feature superior flow characteristics
through an innovative swept elbow design that reduces pressure
losses by over 50% compared to other swing joint designs.
• Double O-ring seals keep water in and dirt out, ensuring joints are
kept clean and can be repositioned more easily.
• Patented pressure relief vent allows trapped water to escape from
the joint threads, preventing O-ring damage or extrusion.
• Excellent structural integrity from the swept elbow design reduces
the costs associated with fatigue-related failures.
• Oversized threaded inlets and large visible stops make
hand-tightening simple.
• High operating pressure rating (315 psi) is perfect for use in
constant pressure situations.
• Spigot inlet available on 1” swing joints.
Operating Range
• Pressure Rating: 315 psi (21,7 bars) @ 73ºF (22,8ºC)
• 3⁄4" TSJ pressure loss: 0.3 psi (0,02 bar) at 6 GPM (0,4 l/s)

PRS-D Valve Flow Range
These are the valve flow ranges. The PRS-Dial regulates only up to 100 psi (6,90 bars).
Models
• PRS-D
Application Information
• Proper operation requires inlet pressure to be a minimum of
15 psi (1,04 bars) higher than desired outlet pressure.
• For areas with very high pressure or uneven terrain, install
sprinklers with PRS pressure regulating stems and/or SAM check
valves.
• When inlet pressure exceeds 100 psi (6,90 bars), a pressure
regulating master valve or inline pressure regulator is
required.
• Rain Bird does not recommend using the pressure regulating
module for applications outside the recommended flow ranges.
• To reduce the effects of water hammer, Rain Bird recommends
flow rates in the supply line not to exceed 7.5 ft/sec (2,29 m/s).
• For flows below 5 GPM (1,14 m3/h; 0,32 l/s), Rain Bird
recommends the use of upstream filtration to prevent debris
from collecting below the valve diaphragm.
• For flows below 10 GPM (2,27 m3/h; 0,63 l/s), Rain Bird recommends the flow control stem be turned down two full turns from
the fully open position.

Valve Wire Sizing Procedure
DV-DUIT
63100
Primary Application
Meets certain city code
requirements for valve wires
to be enclosed in a conduit.
Primary Application
Use with 2" PVC Class 200 pipe
to provide easy detection of a
valve.
Features
• Combination solenoid
handle/conduit cover.
• Easy to turn (swivel) solenoid.
• Adjustable conduit cover.
• Easy to install and work with
solenoid wires.
• Meets city building codes
in certain areas – check local
codes.
Features
• Bright yellow color allows easy
visual detection
• Metal screw insert allows easy
detection with a metal detector
Model
• 63100
Step 1
Determine actual distance, along wire run, from controller out to
the first valve on a circuit and between each succeeding valve on
a multiple valve circuit (as shown in example below). Example:
(Two watt solenoid, 26.5 volt transformer at 150 psi water pressure
at valves.)
Step 2
Calculate the equivalent circuit length for each valve circuit on the
controller. (See chart on following page)
Step 3
Selecting Common Ground Wire Size: Using the longest equivalent
length calculated above, go to the appropriate valve chart and
select a ground wire and a control wire that are as close to the
same size as possible (the ground wire size should always be equal
to or one size larger than the control wire size.) In the example
above, the circuit for station #3 has the longest equivalent length,
7000 feet. In the chart (for this example use the high pressure chart
for 150 psi water pressure at the valve and a 26.5 volt transformer)
select a wire size combination of size 14 and 12 wire. Select
common ground wire as size 12 wire. Since one common ground
wire shall be used for all valves on the controller, you have now
established the common ground wire size for that controller as size
12 wire.
Model
• DV-DUIT
Step 4
Sizing Circuit Control Wires: Using the common ground wire size
selected in Step 3 (size 12), proceed to select each control wire
size from the chart using the calculated equivalent length for
each circuit.
Station #1: Equiv. Length = 1 valve x 2000 ft. = 2000 ft.
select size 18 control wire
Station #2: Equiv. Length = (1 valve x 1000 ft.)
+ (2 valves x 2000 ft.) = 5000 ft. select size 16 control wire
Station #3: Equiv. Length = (1 valve x 500 ft.) + (2 valves x 1000 ft.)
+ (3 valves x 1500 ft.) =7000 ft. select size 14 control wire

Competitive Advantages
of Advanced Surge Protection.
Lightning strikes are one of the biggest enemies of controller
products. They generate powerful surges that damage electronic
circuitry inside. Lightning strikes are not only very powerful but often
occur multiple times in rapid succession. Each surge further weakens
circuitry. As the following charts indicate, the Rain Bird® ESP-MC
controller provides many times the protection against powerful single
and multiple surges created by lightning when compared to the
competition.
Going Head-to-Head with
the Competition.
To measure the effectiveness of Rain Bird’s Advanced Surge
Protection, side-by-side comparisons with the competition were
conducted. The surges generated during the test are similar to surges
affecting controller products during nearby lightning strikes. The clear
advantage of Advanced Surge Protection can be seen in the following
charts.* The Rain Bird ESP-MC controller sustained no damage after
single and multiple surges of up to 20,000 Volts were applied, unlike
the two competitor controller products that were permanently
damaged after surges of less than 2,500 Volts were applied.

Key Features
System Monitoring
System monitoring may consist of many different sensors such as weather
stations, flow meters, rain sensors, and wind sensors. These sensors monitor site conditions and report to the system. The central system automatically responds if any field conditions are outside the pre-defined limits set
by the system operator.
MDC
•
System Control
A central control system allows all actions to be carried out easily and efficiently from the central location. Control actions such as adjusting watering or stopping irrigation in the event of rain or high wind can be automatically accomplished without requiring a technician to visit individual field
controllers. A weather station can be connected to the system to precisely
calculate the amount of water required based on climatic conditions.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
System Communications
A central control system consists of a central computer, irrigation controllers or decoders, sensors and weather stations, and a communication
system to connect them all. Communications can depend on whether a
computer is located on-site, or if the computer is located remotely.
Communications methods include hardwire, direct-connect, fiber optics,
telephone, cellular, and radio.

About Central Control Systems
An irrigation central control system can be defined as a computer system that enables the programming, monitoring and operation of an irrigation system from a central location. Central control systems are
designed to allow a single site (college campus, corporate headquarters)
or set of sites (school district, parks and recreation department) to control all their irrigation from one PC. A central control system can monitor
and automatically adapt controller operation and irrigation run times in
response to conditions in the system and surrounding area (weather,
leaks, etc) as well as parameters defined by the system operator.
2005 – 2006 Catalog
SiteControl
If you need powerful central control but only for a single, large, contiguous
site, SiteControl by Rain Bird provides dynamic map-based control and
instantaneous exchange of information between the field and central control system. Offering both two-wire decoder and field satellite solutions,
SiteControl is a system that offers unmatched features and expandability
and is ideal for college or corporate campuses, housing communities,
cemeteries, and resorts and hotels.
MDC Two-Wire Decoder System
The MDC offers unmatched expandability in an inexpensive system that
provides fast and easy installation. High/low flow shut-off, alarms, sensor
inputs, modular expandability and diagnostic tools are just some of the features of the system. Its programming and monitoring software allows you
to remotely download irrigation schedules from the controller, review system data, make changes, and then upload the new schedule program.
Recommended for strip malls, median strips, apartment complexes and
sites where ease of expansion is critical.

Maxicom 2 ®
Multi-site central control ideal for large-scale commercial systems.
Primary Application
Maxicom 2 Central Control Systems are designed for wide-ranging
large residence, commercial and industrial applications. Hundreds
of sites and weather sources can be controlled and monitored
from one location through telephone, radio, cellular telephone,
Ethernet, direct-connect (serial or short-haul modem), or fiberoptic communication.
Control Features
• From the Maxicom 2 central controller, irrigation systems at multiple sites can be scheduled for days to water, run times, cyclical
scheduling, linking schedules, sensor starts, cycle and soak
schedules, etc.
• Station operating times can be automatically adjusted in response
to changing daily ET (evapotranspiration) values supplied by a
Rain Bird Weather Station or user input.
• Cycle+Soak™ feature optimizes the watering of poor drainage
sites, slopes, and heavy soil areas. Water is applied at or below
soil intake rates automatically, even during high water-use periods.
• Manual operation of system from central computer or from field
satellite units.
• Operation of lighting systems (such as athletic field lighting), security gates, fountains, pumps, sensors, or other systems can also be
managed from one central Maxicom 2 location.
Monitor Features
• Weather sources can be monitored by Maxicom 2 calculating daily
ET values and automatically adjusting station run times to replace
only the water used.
• “Flo-Watch™” monitors hydraulic conditions in the field, checking
for breaks in system piping, or valve malfunctions. The system will
automatically identify where the problem is located, initiate valve
or mainline shutdown, and send an alarm message identifying
where the problem occurred and the action taken to solve the
problem.
• Schedules can start, advance, pause, or cancel according to sensor input from the field.

CRE Series
Primary Application
Wide range of high quality single-pump systems to serve
commercial irrigation pressure boost and suction lift applications.
Industry leading VFD (variable frequency drive) technology and
pump hydraulic efficiencies make these pump stations extremely
energy efficient. Ideal when irrigation system demands vary by
automatically adjusting the pump speed to maintain the desired
water pressure and flow.
Features
• Twice the industry standard warranty with 24 months from
installation or 30 months from date of purchase.
• VFD technology provides quick return on investment and below
industry life-cycle costs, resulting in energy savings of up to 50%
over conventional constant speed pump systems.
• VFD automatically adjusts speed to maintain desired water pressure
as flow varies.
• VFD has no moving parts and eliminates the expensive
maintenance of PRV (pressure regulating valve) systems.
• Pumps with VFD last longer by adjusting workload to meet system
requirements and offer extremely quiet, low vibration operation.
• VFD significantly reduces “water hammer”, which results in less
overall irrigation system stress, wear and tear and ultimately lower
maintenance costs.
• System delivered as a complete package, fully assembled. Includes
stainless steel piping and base, diaphragm tank, shut-off and check
valves, transducers, gauges and power supply
connections.
• Systems fully configured and tested to the customer’s
specified operating requirements prior to leaving the factory.
• Vertical, multi-stage, centrifugal return (CRE) pumps maximize
performance, economy and reliability.
• State-of-the-art hydraulic pump design and laser welding
manufacturing techniques provide industry’s highest pumping
efficiencies of up to 80%.
• Excellent NPSHR characteristics for typical suction lift applications.
• Special low NPSHR impellers available for more demanding suction
lift applications.
• Corrosion resistant stainless steel construction and Tungsten
Carbide bearings ensure trouble-free performance, long life and low
maintenance costs even under harsh operating conditions.
• Computer monitoring safeguards the irrigation circuit against pipe
damage, as well as automatic shutdown under dry run and under
voltage conditions.
• Suction lift kit available.
• Prime maintenance tube for suction lift eliminates the need for
separate priming pump.
• Vertical design provides small footprint.
• Fast on-site repairs with pre-assembled, ready-to-install rebuild
kits.
• Extremely quiet and low vibration operation.

Booster Systems
BP Series
Primary Application
Wide range of high quality single-pump and multi-pump systems
to serve commercial irrigation pressure boost and suction lift
applications. Up to six parallel-connected pumps offers flexible
configurations for diverse and demanding irrigation applications.
Industry leading VFD (variable frequency drive) technology and pump
hydraulic efficiencies make these pump stations extremely energy
efficient. Ideal when irrigation system demands vary by
automatically adjusting the number of pumps required and individual
pump speeds to maintain desired water pressure and flow.
Features
• Twice the industry standard warranty at 24 months from start-up
or 30 months from shipping.
• VFD technology provides quick return on investment through
energy savings of up to 50% over conventional constant speed
pump systems.
• VFD has no moving parts and eliminates the expensive
maintenance of a pressure regulating valve.
• VFD pumps last longer by adjusting workload to meet system
requirements and offer extremely quiet, low vibration operation.
• VFD significantly reduces “water hammer”, which results in less
overall irrigation system stress, wear and tear and ultimately lower
maintenance costs.
• System delivered as a complete package, fully assembled. Includes
stainless steel piping and base, diaphragm tank, shut-off and check
valves, transducers, gauges and power supply connections.
• Systems fully configured and tested to the customer’s
specified operating requirements prior to leaving the factory.
• “Smart” Controller switches the system on/off or regulates the
frequency of up to six parallel-connected pumps maintaining
constant pressure and optimized efficiencies over a wide flow
range.
• Automatic pump start and cascade control rotation ensure evenly
distributed run-time between all pumps, motors and VFDs.
• Monitoring functions for maximum pressure limits safeguard the
irrigation distribution circuit against pipe damage, as well as
automatic shutdown and restart under dry run and under voltage
conditions.
• Stop Function ensures the pump automatically stops when flow
drops below operator selected value. This feature assures the
pump is not subject to overheating and the subsequent risk of shaft
seal damage.
• Multi-pump system offers redundancy and back-up capabilities in
the event of a pump failure.
• State-of-the-art hydraulic pump design and laser welding
manufacturing techniques provide the industry’s highest vertical
multi-stage centrifugal pumping efficiencies of up to 80%.
• Large irrigation areas often require multiple pressure zones. Using
a built-in timer program, the BP Series, with optional PMU 2000
controller, can control up to ten different pressure zones.
• Pre-assembled, ready-to-install rebuild kits including pump shaft,
impellers, chambers and all associated hardware provide for
consistent and timely repairs.
• Corrosion resistant stainless steel construction and Tungsten
Carbide bearings ensure trouble-free performance, long life and
low maintenance costs even under harsh operating conditions.

Xeri-Pop™ Micro-Spray
Primary Application
The Xeri-Pop™ micro-spray makes it easy to integrate a durable
micro-spray into a low-volume irrigation design. The Xeri-Pop is
also ideal for applications that require flexibility and ease of
installation. They are easy to install and reconfigure making them
ideal for seasonal flower and planting beds.
Features
• The Xeri-Pop can operate with 20 to 50 psi base pressure when
water is supplied via 1⁄4" distribution tubing (DT-025 or PT-025).
• The flexibility of 1⁄4" tubing allows for the Xeri-Pop to be easily
located and relocated as planting conditions dictate.
• A durable, plastic snap-collar secures the 1⁄4" tubing to the outside
of the Xeri-Pop case.
• The Xeri-Pop’s 1⁄4" distribution tubing can readily connect to 1⁄2"
(XBS tubing) or 3⁄4" polyethylene tubing or to a multi-outlet
manifold (EMT-6XERI). Connections to polyethylene tubing are
accomplished with either an SPB-025 1⁄4" self-piercing barb
connector or an XBF2EL 1⁄4" self-piercing barb connector.
• External parts are UV-resistant
Operating Range
• Pressure: 20 to 50 psi (1,4 to 3,5 bars)

Landscape Dripline
Primary Application
Landscape Dripline is the next generation in pressure compensating,
inline emitter tubing delivering unmatched clog-resistance for long
term reliability. It can be used to irrigate ground cover, mixed
plantings, slope plantings and hedge rows.
Operating Range
•Pressure: 8.5-60 psi (0,7 to 4,1 bars)
•Temperature: Up to 100° F (43.3° C) water
Up to 125° F (51.7° C) ambient
•Flow Rates: 0.61 GPH and 0.92 GPH (2,3 l/h and 3,5 l/h)
•Filtration: 120-mesh (125-micron)
Features
•Pressure compensation ensures consistent flow from each inline
Specifications
emitter throughout the entire length of tubing run.
•Outside Diameter: 0.630" (16 mm)
•Choice of flow rates, spacing and coil lengths provides design
•Inside Diameter: 0.540" (13,7 mm)
flexibility for a variety of non-turfgrass applications.
•Wall Thickness: 0.045" (1,1 mm)
• Rain Bird’s patented ADI emitter (Advanced Drip Inline) pressure
compensates by “lengthening” the emitter’s turbulent flow path
instead of reducing the cross-sectional area of the emitter’s flow path.
The result is unsurpassed clog-resistance over the long term.
• Cylindrical shape of Rain Bird’s ADI emitter “welds” to the inner
circumference of the polyethylene tubing, creating a physical barrier
that keeps the emitter cover and silicone wafer securely in place even
when tubing is kinked in the field.
• Cylindrical design of Rain Bird’s ADI emitter provides surface area for
filtration throughout 360° of its outer circumference.
Landscape Dripline
• Dual outlet ports on every Rain Bird inline emitter act in combination
as a micro air relief valve.
• Available in UV-resistant brown and purple (to designate non-potable
water zones)
• Accepts Rain Bird Easy Fit Compression Fittings, 16mm barb insert
fittings and LOC Fittings
• Custom Spacing Available, contact a Rain Bird sales representative for

Air/Vacuum
Relief Valve
Primary Application
To ensure optimal performance
of sub-surface installation,* it is
important to include an air/
vacuum relief valve. The valve
will allow air to escape the
pipeline, thus preventing water
hammer or blockage. The valve
will also allow air to enter the
lines as water evacuates the
lines at shutdown. This prevents
vacuum suction of dirty water
from occurring.
Features
• Kit includes 1" air relief valve,
Easy Fit Tee, and Flush Cap.
• Use with Rain Bird Landscape
Dripline inline emitter tubing
• Made of quality rust-proof
materials
• Fits inside an SEB-6 emitter box

Rain Bird® Irrigation Supplement
IS Series
Primary Application
Rain Bird Irrigation Supplement is water bound in the form of a
solid gel. It is an ideal irrigation supplement for use in establishing
native plant material where permanent irrigation is not required as
well as new plant material in existing landscape areas. Rain Bird
IS increases survival rates of transplants by providing continuous
moisture needed to reduce the stress of relocation.
Features
• Helps new transplants become established in existing landscapes.
Existing vegetation is not subjected to over-watering while trying
to establish the new plant, and the new plant has its own
additional source of water until it becomes established
• Provides moisture around the clock to the root zone where
capillary activity in the soil carries and maintains moisture
throughout the root zone continuously for 30 - 90 days
• 100% all natural, non-toxic and harmless to people and pets. Not
a synthetic polymer
• Provides water to the plant, instead of competing with the plant for
water like polymers
• Available in degradable paper carton with non-toxic, water-based
inks that meet landfill requirements
• Establish healthier trees and shrubs by minimizing transplant
stress
• Eliminates evaporation, runoff and leaching
• Requires little to no maintenance
• Now also available in smaller 30-Day Gel Packs ideal for indoor
plants and hanging baskets
Operating Specifications
• Disperses water at a consistent rate for up to 90 days (30 days for
IS-GP30). Bacteria naturally found in soil gradually break down the
food grade ingredients and convert Rain Bird IS back into liquid
water at a consistent and steady release rate. The rate at which
the product liquefies varies based on several factors, resulting in a
usage life that could be shorter than the recommended days.
Users are advised to check the product package within 25 - 60
days depending on product model used.

General Use Guide
• The recommended number of quarts is based on the needs
of medium water-use plant material. For high water-use plants,
increase number of units by 15-20%.
• Excessive heat, wind, plants with extensive foliage or plants
bearing fruit will require additional watering.

circulation to add dissolved oxygen to the water. This circulation
helps to maintain an ecological balance, which in turn assures
sufficient water quality. With the addition of dissolved oxygen the
water and the resulting convection patterns that reduce
stratification, these surface aeration systems provide a number of
practical and economic benefits. Lake Management Aerators
efficiently work to reduce the costly expenses associated with a
water source that is ecologically out of balance. This helps to avoid
undesirable algae build-up, over growth of weeds, unpleasant odors
and depleted fish population.

Determining Maximum Number of Valves
Per Station of a Controller
Procedure
Example
Determine maximum number of solenoid valves which
may be operated per station of an RC-7C controller using
a master valve:
1. From secondary current requirement chart, determine the
maximum secondary current (Amps) allowable for the model
controller selected.
1. From secondary current requirement chart, maximum secondary
current allowable:
RC-7C = 1.5 Amps
2. Determine the secondary current requirement of the controller
only and the master valve (if a master valve is being used).
2. Secondary current requirement for controller and master valve:
RC-7C controller only
Solenoid master valve
Total
.35
.23
.58
3. Calculate the remaining current available for valve operation:
maximum secondary current allowable minus the current for
controller master valve.
3. Remaining current available:
4. Number of valves per station equals:
