Raindrip Inc 46200UB 3/4 Inch Preset Pressure Regulator

Product Description

The RAINDRIP INC 46200UB is a preset pipe pressure regulator designed for drip and low-flow irrigation systems. It accepts a 3/4 inch pipe thread inlet and delivers flow through a 3/4 inch pipe thread outlet, maintaining a steady output pressure in the 15 to 20 psi range. The regulator handles circuits totaling up to 360 GPH, making it suitable for zone-level pressure management in residential and light commercial irrigation layouts. Irrigation contractors and landscape professionals install this inline to protect drip emitters, micro-spray heads, and soaker lines from pressure spikes that cause premature failure or uneven distribution.

This regulator fits inline at the zone entry point, downstream of the control valve, to condition supply pressure before water reaches sensitive low-pressure drip components. It is well suited for residential yard drip systems, raised-bed garden circuits, and containerized plant zones where consistent low-pressure delivery is critical. The preset design eliminates field adjustment, making it a straightforward install for service technicians managing multiple zones.

Key Features

• Maintains 15 to 20 psi output pressure to protect drip emitters and micro-spray components
• Handles circuits with combined flow up to 360 GPH
• 3/4 inch pipe thread inlet and 3/4 inch pipe thread outlet for direct inline installation
• Preset factory calibration — no field adjustment required
• Compact form factor suitable for valve box or above-grade installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style inline pressure regulator for 3/4 inch pipe thread drip and low-volume irrigation circuits requiring regulated output in the 15 to 20 psi range.

Installation Notes

Licensed irrigators and landscape contractors typically install this regulator using standard pipe wrenches and thread sealant tape rated for potable or irrigation water service. Shut off the zone valve and relieve line pressure before threading the regulator into place. Do not exceed the rated flow capacity of 360 GPH for the downstream circuit, as oversized circuits may result in insufficient pressure drop. Local plumbing and irrigation codes may apply — verify compliance with applicable standards before installation.
