Exclusive Flow-Shield Technology

Service Indication Stream

Exclusive Flow-Shield
Technology provides up to
90% reduction in water loss
when a nozzle is removed,
preventing potentially costly
and unacceptable run-o.

Exclusive Flow-Shield Technology delivers a


low-ow service indication stream when a nozzle
is removed. As a result, system performance
is maintained, water is saved and you dont have to
wait until you have brown grass or dead plants to
notice somethings wrong.

Patented Triple-Blade Wiper Seal

Patented Pressure Regulator


The RD1800s patented
pressure regulator
increases nozzle eciency
by up to 50% in high
pressure applications.

The RD1800 Series features a patented


Triple-Blade Wiper Seal. The top seal ushes during
pop-up and wipes the stem clean during retraction,
preventing external debris
from entering. During
operation, the primary seal
combines with the stems
surface to eliminate ow-by.
The exclusive Third Blade
New Third Blade
provides another line of
defense, in case the primary seal is damaged.

Reclaimed Water Resistant

Reinforced Ratchet Mechanism


The RD1800s ratchet mechanism was designed
to improve ease of use and consistency, hold its
setting over time, withstand years of chlorine
exposure and provide greater debris resistance.

Seal-A-Matic (SAM) Check Valve


Exclusive to Rain Bird, the SAM Check Valve holds back
up to 14 feet of head and helps eliminate low head
drainage, erosion, run-o and water hammer at start-up.

14

The RD1800 Series is designed with reclaim water


resistant materials such as EPDM and Polyester.
These materials resist degradation caused by
chlorine in reclaimed water, ensuring a longer life.

Unique Debris Pockets


With each system start-up,
the RD1800s unique
debris pockets hold grit in
placeremoving it from
circulation and preventing
long-term damage.

* 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 bar) as long as the inlet pressure at the spray head is greater
than 30 psi (2.1 bar)

The beauty of the HE-VAN is that with one


simple change we got a lot of benefits,
like saving money, water, and time. We
also anticipate decreased liability and
reduced system wear and tear. Now we can
confidently meet industry regulations and
environmental challenges while providing a
lush landscape that all can enjoy. Thats a lot
of payback for just changing a nozzle!

t U-Series Nozzles are dual-orifice nozzles

Resources

that have better, more uniform water


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

t HE-VAN nozzles are fully adjustable from

0 to 360 degree with high uniformity and


efficiency. HE-VAN nozzles can reduce the
number of variations that need to be
carried to cover just about any field
challenge. Available in radii from 8 to 15,
this high efficient nozzle has you covered.

t Rotary Nozzles have efficient

water distribution through


rotating streams that uniformly
deliver water at a low
precipitation rate, significantly
reducing runoff and erosion.

When U-Series dual-orifice nozzles are installed instead of standard nozzles on every spray body 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

U-Series Nozzle

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*
* Based on tests conducted at the Rain Bird
Product Research Center. Tests conducted on
Rain Bird and principal competitors part-circle
nozzles

Competitor A and B nozzles fail to provide efficient close-in watering which results
in a higher scheduling coefficient

Water flowing from both orifices results in a lower scheduling coefficient. This efficient design conserves water, saves money and reduces waste.

Distribution Uniformity (DULQ): DU in irrigation is a measure of how uniformly water is


applied to the area being watered. DULQ is calculated by taking the volume in the lowest
quarter of catch can measurements and dividing it by the average volume of all catch
can measurements. Scheduling Coefficient (SC): SC is a measure of how long a zone
must be run in order to provide adequate water to the driest spot.

These ranges are based on proper pressure at nozzle

Rain Bird recommends using 1800 PRS Spray Bodies to maintain optimum nozzle
performance in higher pressure situations

Spray Nozzles

HE-VAN Series Nozzles

Spray Nozzles
Rotary Nozzles

Rotary Nozzles
0.60 in/hr Precipitation Rate from 13 to 24 Feet
Q Low precipitation rate of 0.60 in/hr (15.2 mm/hr) reduces runoff
and erosion
Spray Nozzles

Q With approximately 60% less flow than conventional spray nozzles,


Rotary Nozzles allow more heads per zone, reducing overall
system complexity and cost

Durability
- Rubber collar keeps out large debris particles while enabling small
ones to exit easily to keep deflector clean and clear of debris
- Screen mesh size prevents large debris from entering nozzle
through spray
- Three-year trade warranty

Operating Range

Q Multiple, rotating streams uniformly distribute water throughout


the 13' to 24' radius range

t1SFTTVSFSBOHFQTJ UPCBS

t4QBDJOHGFFUUPGFFU NUPN

- Above spacing based on zero wind conditions

Features

Models

A Spray Nozzle with Rain Curtain Performance


- Large droplets for consistent performance
- Effective close-in watering
- Even distribution over the entire radius
Installation and Maintenance
- Designed for use on Rain Bird Spray Bodies
- Color-coded radius reduction plugs for easy identification
- Stainless steel radius reduction screw allows reduction down to 13'
on the R13-18 and to 17' on the R17-24 to accommodate varying
landscape needs
Design Solutions
- Matched precipitation rate across radii and pattern simplify the
design process
- Precipitation rate matches Rain Bird 5000/5000 Plus MPR Rotor
Nozzles allowing MPR irrigation designs from 13' to 35'
(see page 61)
- Maintains highly efficient performance throughout the 20 to 55 psi
pressure range, with no misting or fogging at high pressures
- Use in conjunction with 1800-SAM-P45 spray heads for maximum
nozzle performance (see page 12 for more information)

Rain Curtain Nozzles engineered to deliver superior coverage across the entire radius range.
Rain Curtain Nozzles produce larger water droplets that are far
less susceptible to wind, and greatly minimize misting and airborne
evaporation. This assures that the right amount of water goes where it
needs to go, saving time, money and water.
Effective and gentle close-in watering eliminates dry spots around the
rotor, and distribution uniformity compensates for varying environmental
conditions assuring green grass results.

Introduction

Valves

Impacts

Ive installed other valves, but the reliability


didnt come close to Rain Bird DV Valves.
Thats why over the last 15 years weve
installed DV Valves exclusively, because I
wont risk my reputation on anything else.

Recommendations
1.Rain Bird recommends flow rates that result in discharge velocities in the supply line not
to exceed 7.5 ft/sec (2.3 m/s) in order to reduce the effects of water hammer.
2. DV Series valves and any other Rain Bird residential valves cannot be used with PRS
pressure regulating modules.
3. Not recommended for use with two-wire systems.

Recommendations
1. Rain Bird recommends flow rates in the supply line not to exceed 7.5 ft/sec
(2.29 m/s) in order to reduce the effects of water hammer
2. For flows below 5 gpm (1.14 m3h; 19.2 l/m), Rain Bird recommends use of upstream
filtration to prevent debris from collecting below the diaphragm

Recommendations
1. Rain Bird recommends flow rates in the supply line not to exceed 7.5 ft/sec
(2.29 m/s) in order to reduce the effects of water hammer
2. For flows below 5 gpm (1.14 m3h; 19.21 l/m), Rain Bird recommends use of upstream
filtration to prevent debris from collecting below the diaphragm
3. For flows below 10 gpm (2.27 m3h; 37.8 l/m) Rain Bird recommends the flow
control stem be turned down two full turns from the fully open position

* Reliable operation even in heavily chlorinated water. Valve diaphragm composed of


EPDM, a rubber material which is chlorine and chemical resistant

controller out to the first valve on a circuit and
between each succeeding valve on a multiple valve
circuit (as shown in Figure A, page 93). Example: (Two
watt solenoid, 26.5 volt transformer, 50Hz, at 150 psi
water pressure at valves.)

Calculate the equivalent circuit length for each valve


circuit on the controller. (See chart to left)

Selecting Common Wire Size: Using the longest


equivalent length calculated above, go to the
appropriate valve chart and select a common wire
and a control wire that are as close to the same size
as possible (the common 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 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 wire as size 12 wire. Since one common
wire shall be used for all valves on the controller, you
have now established the common wire size for that
controller as size 12 wire.

Step 4
Sizing Circuit Control Wires: Reading only from the
row for the common 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

On previous projects, I had installed a


plastic tube with about a dozen handdrilled holes and a retrofitted bubbler, but
Ive never been completely satisfied with
this do-it-yourself method. At a recent
job we needed to plant 200 valley oak
seedlings on a 20-acre site and used the
Rain Bird RWS. One year after planting, the
trees show extremely good vitality. If youre
looking for long-term vitality and healthy
trees this is an excellent tool.

ESP-SMT Smart Modular Control System

Features

ESP-SMT Smart Modular


Control System
4 to 13 Station Indoor or Outdoor Smart Modular
Control System for Residential and Light Commercial Use
The ESP-SMT integrates technology used by top golf courses for decades
and puts it into a user friendly controller
Q The ESP-SMT is the first controller from a full line irrigation
manufacturer to earn the Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA)
WaterSense label
Q On-site rainfall data - The ESP-SMT collects site rainfall amounts and
uses this information to re-calculate run times for each zone
Q Historical weather data The internal memory of the ESP-SMT
contains over 8 years of historical weather data. This data, along
with the onsite rainfall and temperature information is used to adjust
watering run times on a daily basis.
Q Reduced water run-off The ESP-SMT Cycle and Soak feature allows
the controller to adjust zone run times based on soil conditions and
slope to reduce/eliminate water run-off

Water Saving Benefits


- The ET Manager Cartridge saves water by making real-time
adjustments to the irrigation schedule based on hourly weather
information
- Water savings of 20% 50% over traditional time-based
irrigation control
- Measures the four key components of ET: solar radiation, relative
humidity, wind, and temperature, as well as effective rainfall
- Adjusts program run-times and the frequency of irrigation
- Four separate moisture balances are maintained, one for each
program or hydrozone to efficiently water varied plant types
(example: turf, shrubs, trees, annuals, etc)
Easy Installation
- Installs in seconds with no tools into all ESP-LX Series controllers;
snaps into a dedicated bay on the back of the controller faceplate
- Antenna mounts on NPS nipple
- Setup Wizard walks user through all key setup parameters
Reduced Liability
- Minimum temperature interrupt to prevent irrigation during
freezing conditions reducing liabilities associated with
walkway icing
Additional ETC-LX Features
- The ET Manager Cartridge uses the Weather Reach signal
- Eliminates the need to travel to controller sites to make adjustments
or programming changes, contributing to significant labor savings
- Ribbon cable connects ETC-LX cartridge to the controller
- Antenna cable connects with snap in connector
- Status LEDs show current status of communication
- ETC-LX kit includes ET Manager Cartridge, receiver antenna,
manual, and ET Manager Resource CD which will help schedule
irrigation run times based on landscape parameters

* Allows the antenna to be remotely mounted for better signal reception. ET Manager
has a built in antenna but locations with a weak paging signal may require an external
antenna

A central control system allows programming from a single computer location,


saving the time and money usually spent traveling to the controllers. Program
changes to multiple controllers across multiple sites can be made in just
minutes. Irrigation run-times can automatically be adjusted with the addition of
a weather station or sensors.

System Communication
Communication options between the central computer, irrigation controllers,
decoders, sensors and weather stations can include hardwire, direct-connect,
phone, cellular, radio, fiber-optics, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi.

System Operation and Monitoring


The central control system monitors itself and can make use of flow, rain,
wind, moisture and other sensors to adjust operation or take action in real
time. System operational logs and any alarms for problems that occur are
communicated back to the central computer, where reports can be generated.

About Central Control Systems


Irrigation central control is computer-based and 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 a set of sites (school district, parks and recreation department)
to control all their irrigation from one central computer. Central control can
monitor and automatically adapt system operation and irrigation run-times in
response to conditions in the system and surrounding area (weather change,
pipe breaks, etc) as well as parameters defined by the operator.

Rain Bird Central Control

Rain Bird Single Site Central Control Systems


SiteControl
SiteControl offers powerful central control features for single, large, contiguous
sites. SiteControl provides interactive map-based control and real-time
communication between the field and the central computer. It can control
two-wire decoders, satellite controllers or both for unmatched expandability
and flexibility. SiteControl is ideal for property developments, sports field
complexes, shopping malls, cemeteries, resorts and hotels.

Rain Bird developed the original computer based central control system in
the 1970s and today has thousands of systems installed worldwide.

Satellite Controllers and Field Decoders


Rain Bird offers a variety of systems to match the needs of the customer,
budget, site or application. Select from systems designed specifically for
single sites, multiple sites, small or large. Rain Bird central control systems
can utilize satellite controllers, two-wire decoders, or a combination of both.

Having grown up in Tucson, saving water is


my passion! I became intrigued with Dripin-Turf after seeing its success at a corporate
building in Del Mar, and a College in San
Diego. I wanted to experience it myself, so I
retro-fitted my own backyard. My turf has an
irregular shape, so overspray was a big issue.
Applying water directly to the root zone
worked efficiently, my turf looks great, and
Im saving water. I am now a true believer
and specify Drip-in-Turf whenever I can!

with a wide range of 12" polyethylene tubing sizes (0.630" to 0.669"
or 16mm - 17mm outside diameter)
Q Saves time and effort: 50% less force is required to connect tubing
and fittings versus competitive compression fittings. Adapters
swivel for easy installation

Low Flow Valves

Pressure Loss Characteristics

Valves designed exclusively for the low flow rates of a drip


irrigation system (0.2 - 8.0 gpm; 0.6 to 30 l/m)
Q The only valves in the industry made specifically for drip irrigation
systems, making these the only valves that can effectively handle
particles at low flow rates patented design
Q These valves contain all of the features of reliable Rain Bird DV or
ASVF valves, coupled with a unique diaphragm design that allows
particles to pass through at extremely low flow rates, thereby
preventing weeping of the valve
Q Allows the filter to be safely placed downstream of the valve since
these valves handle all sizes of particles

Pressure-Regulating Filter (RBY)


Unique, compact unit that combines filtration and pressure
regulation in one piece for protection of downstream components
in a low-volume irrigation system
Q Reduces the number of components in a control zone, making it
smaller and easier to install. More control zones can fit in one
WBMWFCPY
Q Combination unit reduces the number of connections, making
installation easier and faster
Q Increased reliability -- fewer parts and fewer threaded connections
mean less chance of a leak both at installation and also over the
life of the system

PSR, PSRP and PSRPL Pump Start Relays

NEW

For Optimum Pump Performance and Protection


Q Universal Rain Bird Pump start relays (PSRs) provide worry free
performance for your irrigation system and are compatible with all
Rain Bird and other reliable irrigation controllers
Q Choose the PSRP for dry-run protection. An added pressure switch
ensures additional protection in the event that you lose water
pressure from the source
Q The PSRPL is ideal for systems operating through a water
harvesting system or some other source that requires level control.
This control feature prevents the pump from running if the source
is depleted

How to Use This Catalog, Pressure Loss Through Water Meters

How to Use This Catalog

Pressure Loss Through Water Meters

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:

Square Spacing

Triangular Spacing

U.S.:
PR=96.3 x gpm
SxS

Metric:
PR=1000 x m /h
SxS
3

U.S.:
PR=96.3 x gpm
SxL

Metric:
PR=1000 x m /h
SxL
3

96.3 = Constant (inches/square foot/hour)


1000 = Constant (millimeter/square meter/hour)
gpm = Gallons per minute (applied to area by sprinklers)
m3/h = Cubic meters per hour (applied to area by sprinklers)
S = Spacing between sprinklers
L = Spacing between rows (S x 0.866)

Specification Information
The information in this catalog was accurate at the time of printing and
may be used for proper specification of each product. For the most up-todate information, go to the Rain Bird web site at www.rainbird.com.

U-Series nozzle water savings based on manufacturers testing. Rotary-type


nozzles use 20% 30% less water than traditional spray heads because they
operate with lower precipitation rates, greater uniformity of distribution, and
a greater radius of coverage, according to the Metropolitan Water District of
Southern California. Savings of 22% 41% were also shown with rotary-type
nozzles (please see complete study at http://www.cuwcc.org/landscape_task_
force/Solomon_Kissinger_Landscape_Irrigation_Report_05-06-05.).

Based on water agency (Irvine Ranch Water District, City of Santa Barbara,
Cities of Boulder, Longmont, Greenly) and manufacturer case studies of ET-type
controllers.

Water savings confirmed in the Soil Moisture Sensor Controller & Rain Sensor
Testing Final Report (January 17, 2010), conducted by the Agricultural and
Biological Engineering Department at the University of Florida.

4) Exposure to electrolysis, erosion, or abrasion

5) Presence of destructive gases or chemicals

8) Exposure to incoming power lacking circuit breaker or fused protection

The 5000 PRS Rotor has been awarded the Smart Approved WaterMark
Certification, Australias outdoor water-saving labeling program for products that
help reduce water use outside the home. An independent testing panel confirmed
that the Rain Bird 5000 PRS delivers 15% 45% water savings when compared to
non-pressure regulated competitive rotors.

9) Using the control panel as a service disconnect

6) Over voltage or low voltage


7) Electrical phase loss or reversal

10) Lightning or other Act of Nature.


11) Failure of pump packing seal (unless the failure occurs on initial start-up).
The foregoing terms and conditions constitute Rain Birds entire Customer
Satisfaction Policy. Rain Bird does not offer any other or additional warranty,
with respect to the pumping system or its components. Rain Bird makes
no implied warranty, with respect to fitness for a particular purpose or
merchantability of the pumping system or its components. Components

covered solely by and to the extent of the warranty, if any, offered by the
manufacturer. Rain Bird shall not be liable to the customer or any other person
or entity for any liability, loss, or damage caused or alleged to be caused,
directly or indirectly, by the pump system. Rain Bird shall not be responsible
for incidental, consequential, collateral or indirect damages or loss of profit or
damages related to the customers business operations, nor for those caused
by Acts of Nature. In no case and under no circumstances shall Rain Birds
liability exceed the Rain Bird Corporations net sale price of the pump system.

Rain Birds MPR Nozzles consume 3.70 gpm versus 1.60 gpm for rotary nozzles,
which is about 60% less flow.

Water savings are average values for multiple installations. Case studies verifying these water savings can be found on the LEED website as well as
www.rainbird.com/landscape/site_reports/index.htm.

Laws concerning customer warranties and disclaimers vary from state to state,
and therefore some of the foregoing limitations may not apply
to you.
