Raindrip Inc R462CT Pipe Pressure Regulator 15-20 Psi

Product Description

The RAINDRIP INC R462CT is a pre-set pipe pressure regulator designed to reduce and stabilize incoming water pressure to a fixed range of 15 to 20 psi. It installs inline on 3/4-inch pipe connections and is built for use in drip irrigation and low-flow distribution systems where consistent downstream pressure is critical to emitter and drip-line performance. The pre-set design eliminates field adjustment, making installation straightforward for irrigation contractors, landscapers, and plumbers working on residential or light commercial drip systems. Each unit ships individually and is sold in a package quantity of 10.

This regulator is suited for drip irrigation mainlines, sub-mainlines, and zone supply lines where upstream pressure would otherwise exceed the operating range of downstream drip emitters, micro-sprayers, or soaker components. It is typically positioned downstream of the zone valve and upstream of the drip distribution manifold or tubing run. The 15 to 20 psi output range aligns with standard operating requirements for most residential drip irrigation components.

Key Features

• Pre-set output pressure of 15 to 20 psi — no field adjustment required
• 3/4-inch pipe connection for standard irrigation mainline sizing
• Inline installation fits directly into existing pipe runs
• Sold in a pack of 10 units, suitable for multi-zone or contractor stock
• Compact form factor minimizes space requirements at the valve box or manifold

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation pressure regulator for 3/4-inch pipe drip irrigation systems requiring a fixed downstream pressure of 15 to 20 psi.

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber or certified irrigation technician should install this regulator in accordance with local plumbing and irrigation codes. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before cutting into the pipe and installing the regulator. Observe flow-direction markings on the regulator body and ensure the unit is oriented correctly in the line. Do not exceed the rated inlet pressure range specified by the manufacturer, and confirm all connections are leak-free before restoring system pressure.
