Rain Bird irrigation products for nurseries and greenhouses

Rain Bird's agricultural line centres on the GritX dripline family — built for water with grit in it, which is most surface and recycled supply — plus the XFD and XFS ranges for on-surface and subsurface work. Filters, control valves and PRS pressure-regulating stems complete the head end.

Rain Bird products by category

Dripline 6

GritX PC Heavywall

Dripline
Diameter
16 / 18 / 20 mm
Wall
35–50 mil
Emitter spacing
18"–60" standard (6"–96" custom)
Flow
0.26–1.06 gph
Pressure
7–60 psi
Pressure comp.
Yes · Rain Bird ag dripline is PC only
Best for
On-surface permanent crops, orchards & vineyards; poor water

GritX SDI

Dripline
Diameter
16 / 18 / 20 mm
Wall
35–48 mil
Emitter spacing
6"–96" patterns
Flow
0.46 gph (1.7 l/h)
Pressure
15–60 psi
Pressure comp.
Yes (+ Copper Shield) · Rain Bird ag dripline is PC only
Best for
Subsurface drip for tree crops & vineyard

GritX DSV

Dripline
Diameter
16 / 18 / 20 mm
Wall
35–48 mil
Emitter spacing
6"–96" patterns
Flow
0.46 gph (1.7 l/h)
Pressure
15–60 psi
Pressure comp.
Yes (anti-drain/anti-siphon) · Rain Bird ag dripline is PC only
Best for
Tree crops & vines needing backflow prevention

XFD On-Surface Dripline

Dripline
Pressure comp.
Yes
Best for
Rain Bird call it the most flexible pressure-compensating inline emitter tubing made — it lies into ground cover, dense plantings and hedge rows without fighting the curve. The low-profile emitter cuts in-line pressure loss, so laterals run longer

XFS Subsurface Dripline

Dripline
Pressure comp.
Yes
Best for
Copper Shield technology stops roots growing into the emitters without harsh chemicals or treated filters — the usual failure mode for buried dripline

XFS-CV Subsurface Dripline

Dripline
Pressure
4.3 psi check valve in every emitter
Pressure comp.
Yes
Best for
Every emitter carries a 4.3 psi check valve, holding the line charged across elevation changes of more than ten feet — Rain Bird say the highest hold-back in the industry. Keeps Copper Shield root protection as well, so a sloping bed does not drain down to the bottom emitters after every cycle

Metal impact sprinkler 8

Metal impact sprinkler
Flow
0.56–2.68 gpm
Pressure
20–60 psi
Connection

Rain Bird calls it a workhorse for nursery use — greenhouse, nursery, can yards and climate control. Delrin plastic, trip collars adjust 20°–360°, patented Precision-Jet S-tube stops side splash, five colour-coded Quick Fit nozzles. Good grit and chemical resistance for dirty water

Micro-sprinkler 2

Micro Bird Jet

Micro-sprinkler
Flow
3.7–37.5 gph (14–142 l/h)
Pressure
10–30 psi (0.7–2.1 bar)
Connection
5 mm or 1/4" tubing barb
Throw diameter
3–33 ft (0.9–10.1 m)
Sizes
Snap-fit nozzles MBJ05 (.026"), MBJ08 (.033") and up; 8 deflector patterns
Best for
Snap-fit nozzles and deflectors assemble and clean without tools. Reversible dual-pattern deflector flips to change the wetted area as the crop matures. 150-mesh filtration recommended. Ships factory-assembled or as loose components

LFX / LF Series Low Flow Sprinklers

Radius
18–31 ft (5.5–9.4 m) — LFX300 18–25 ft, LFX600 22–31 ft
Best for
Rain Curtain technology for even distribution and gentle close-in watering that will not wash out media. Snap-fit brake assemblies and nozzles change without tools. Optional flow-control (FC) nozzles hold output steady as pressure varies — LFX300 at 0.35 / 0.43 / 0.50 gpm, LFX600 at 0.75 / 1.00 gpm. Snap-on edge guard and stream splitters available

AC Controller 6

ESP-LXME2 / ESP-LXME2 PRO

AC Controller
Best for
Modular commercial controller with a large display and a hand/off/auto dial. Non-volatile memory keeps the schedule and a lithium coin cell holds time and date through an outage, so a power cut does not cost you the programme. English and Spanish

ESP-TM2 Series

AC Controller
Connection
120 V indoor/outdoor; LNK WiFi module compatible
Sizes
4, 6, 8 and 12 stations
Best for
The practical mid-range Rain Bird controller, indoor or outdoor rated, with Wi-Fi available through the LNK module rather than built in — so the cost only lands if the site wants it

ESP-Me3

AC Controller
Connection
LNK2 WiFi compatible
Best for
Modular controller that takes the LNK2 Wi-Fi module for app control and remote scheduling

ESP-LXD Decoder Controller

AC Controller
Best for
Rain Bird’s two-wire decoder platform — one cable path with decoders at the valves, for large or awkward sites where home-run wiring is impractical

ESP-LXIVM Series

AC Controller
Connection
LNK2 WiFi compatible
Best for
Decoder controller built around integrated valve modules, with the diagnostics to find a fault on the two-wire path rather than digging to look for it

LNK2 WiFi Module

AC Controller
Connection
Fits ESP-Me, ESP-ME3, ESP-TM2, RZXe, ESP-LXME2 and ESP-LXIVM
Best for
Adds Wi-Fi and app control to a controller already installed — six model families supported, so an existing site can go remote without new hardware in the cabinet

DC Controller 3

TBOS-BT Series

DC Controller
Connection
One 9 V alkaline battery, type 6AM6 / 6LR61
Sizes
1, 2, 4 and 6 stations — TBOS-BT (mobile app or handheld transmitter) and TBOS-BT-LT (app only)
Best for
Buriable battery controller programmed over Bluetooth from a phone, for zones with no power. Eight models across the two ranges

TBOS-II Series

DC Controller
Connection
One 9 V alkaline battery, type 6AM6 / 6LR61; roughly one year of life
Best for
The original buriable battery line, for automating awkward areas where AC power is not available

ESP-BAT-BT

DC Controller
Best for
Battery controller programmed over Bluetooth, for valves with no power available

Filtration 1

Drip Filters, Valves & Pressure Regulators

Filtration
Best for
Rain Bird’s filter, valve and pressure regulator range for low-volume drip zones

Pressure regulator 1

PRS Pressure Regulating Stems

Pressure regulator
Pressure
Regulates to 30 psi
Sizes
Available in every pop-up height
Best for
The regulator lives inside the spray body stem rather than upstream, so every head is individually regulated to 30 psi — no misting from over-pressure at the near end of a zone
