Rain Bird A50306MX 6 Inch Pop-up Body 45 Psi Regulator

Product Description

The RAIN BIRD A50306MX is a 6-inch pop-up sprinkler body with an integrated 45 psi pressure regulator, designed for use in residential and commercial irrigation systems. The built-in pressure regulator limits outlet pressure to 45 psi, protecting downstream heads from misting, fogging, and premature wear caused by high-pressure water supply lines. Licensed irrigators and landscape contractors install this body as a direct component in fixed-spray and rotor-compatible irrigation zones requiring consistent pressure management at the head level.

This pop-up body is suited for turf and landscape bed applications where inlet pressure varies or exceeds optimal sprinkler operating range. The 6-inch pop-up height provides adequate clearance for established turf canopies. It is typically installed in residential lawns, commercial landscape zones, and municipal green spaces where pressure regulation at each head reduces water waste and improves distribution uniformity across the zone.

Key Features

• Integrated 45 psi pressure regulator limits outlet pressure at the head, eliminating the need for a separate zone-level regulator
• 6-inch pop-up height suits standard turf and ground-cover installations
• Pressure regulation reduces misting and fogging, improving application efficiency
• Compatible with standard female-threaded nozzle and riser configurations typical of the 1800-series body style
• Order increment of 1 allows single-unit purchasing for repairs and replacements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade component for residential and commercial fixed-spray irrigation systems using 1800-series style pop-up sprinkler bodies with standard threaded nozzle connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed irrigator or qualified landscape contractor in accordance with local plumbing and irrigation codes. Shut off the irrigation zone valve and relieve line pressure before removing an existing body or installing this unit. Hand-tighten threaded connections to avoid cracking the body, then use strap-style tools only if needed to snug the fitting. Verify system operating pressure at the source before commissioning to confirm the 45 psi regulator is appropriate for the supply pressure range.
