Rain Bird X71007 Pressure Compensating Drip Emitter 7 Gph

Product Description

The RAIN BIRD X71007 is a barbed, pressure-compensating drip emitter rated at 7 gallons per hour (GPH). Pressure-compensating emitters maintain a consistent output flow rate across a wide range of inlet pressures, making them well suited for sloped terrain and longer drip runs where pressure variation is common. The violet color coding identifies the 7 GPH flow rate at a glance, simplifying identification during installation and service. This emitter is installed directly into drip distribution tubing and is a standard component in low-volume irrigation systems serving landscape beds, orchards, vineyards, and row crops.

The X71007 is used in residential and commercial drip irrigation systems where uniform water delivery is required at each emission point regardless of elevation change or line length. It is installed by irrigation contractors and landscape professionals working with standard drip tubing. The barbed inlet allows direct insertion into poly drip tubing without additional fittings. Systems using pressure-compensating emitters typically operate within a defined pressure range to ensure the self-regulating diaphragm functions correctly.

Key Features

• Pressure-compensating design maintains consistent 7 GPH output across varying inlet pressures
• Violet color coding identifies 7 GPH flow rate for fast field identification
• Barbed inlet connects directly to standard poly drip tubing without additional fittings
• Compact module form factor suitable for in-line or flag emitter configurations
• Low-volume output supports efficient water use in drip irrigation applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or expansion emitter for standard barbed drip irrigation distribution systems using low-volume poly tubing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by irrigation contractors or qualified landscape technicians. Shut off the irrigation supply valve and relieve system pressure before inserting or removing emitters. Use a punch tool sized for the tubing outside diameter to create a clean barb insertion hole. Follow local water authority guidelines and applicable irrigation codes for backflow prevention and system design.
